Property portal Rightmove reported that it was family houses that were outperforming other parts of the property market in April, with an average 0.3% year-on-year increase in asking prices.

This can most likely be explained by family life creating pertinent reasons to move and therefore keeping prices stable - an extra bedroom becomes urgent for growing children, or there’s a need to move to a different location to be within a preferred school catchment area.

We help people at all levels of the market, from first time buyers looking to purchase using Help To Buy,  to downsizers who are looking to sell a substantial family home and move to something more manageable in retirement.

If you’re thinking of selling or letting out your property, do come and talk to us. Our experienced teams keep a close eye on all areas of their local market and would be delighted to answer your questions.
