Since the budget, we’re seeing an increase in clients are registering to move and many are making plans to downsize. Winchester has always been a popular city for all generations, and with so much to offer, it’s no wonder it’s now top of many homebuyers’ wish lists. Winchester is steeped in history and few places […]

We have all enjoyed the wonderful easy access to property portals for some years now. However, buying and selling houses and sharing personal information about our homes is not as popular as it once was. Google has no delete button, therefore financial information remaining permanently online, often with errors, is not always helpful.

Stretching 140 kilometres from Winchester in Hampshire to Eastbourne in East Sussex, the South Downs National Park offers stunning scenery with more than 2,000 rights of way, trails and paths winding through chalk downland, woods, hills and vales. Visiting its towns and villages is like stepping back in time, and homebuyers are drawn to this […]

The dynamics of today’s property market, where asking prices are wildly optimistic, is creating some unique opportunities for buyers. Properties priced above their true open market value can provide buyers with extra leverage during negotiations, particularly where a property has been unsold for a lengthy period of time. Sellers may be more willing to enter […]

We’re delighted to see our comments on Arundel in Sussex Life magazine and regional newspaper The Argus. Both publications have picked up on news that the popular West Sussex town has been nominated as one of the best locations in the UK for downsizers. Most of our downsizing clients have children who have flown the […]

We work with many downsizers who are local to West Sussex and moving into the area, so we were delighted to assist the Daily Mail with their round up of the best places to downsize. In at number three, Arundel is an ideal hotspot for outdoorsy types and nature lovers of all ages. People love […]
