People stuck at home start thinking about their living situation, says estate agent Russell Griffin – so it could be time to start planning a move
D
uring this extraordinary time of self-isolation and lockdown, many people will have the time to consider how they live now and how they want to live in the future. This might mean a bigger property or a smaller one. It might mean a property better suited to working from home, or with a different view, or lower running costs. Whatever the reason, we at Samuel Wood are here to help you through this unprecedented crisis. Although few people will be physically moving home in the next few months, we have seen signs already that some are thinking about the future. Moving takes planning and planning takes time. And if there is one thing a great many of us have right now it is time. Thanks to the period of lockdown, we have made plenty of virtual valuations. Experienced local agents like us can advise owners how much their properties are worth without visiting. At a time like
this, traditional agents who have worked their patch for years really come into their own. Technology means we can even put a property on the market remotely. Because we know our buyers and what they are looking for, we can market properties on the web and in other ways. The next few months could be a perfect time to quietly offer your property on the market and even perhaps tie up an open-ended sale that takes into account the uncertainties of coronavirus. Good planning and creativity will be valuable in the months ahead. That is where a real, local property expert or consultant comes in. Why not call us, email us or visit our website right now? Russell Griffin is director of Samuel Wood, with branches in Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Craven Arms and Church Stretton.
