Welcome to our summer edition of Lifestyles According to the latest Veracity Index from Ipsos MORI, only 25% of people trust estate agents and journalists, and together we come third from bottom among the trusted. In comparison, builders are trusted by 42% of people and even bankers are trusted by 37%, and so it disappoints me greatly that the estate agency profession has made virtually no progress in terms of gaining greater consumer confidence since the survey started. It is anyone’s guess as to why this might be the case, but my own theory is that this lack of trust has more to do with poor levels of competency than anything else.

Why do I say competency, or should I say incompetency?

Cameron Black Sales Director

It’s simple things like amateurish photography, lack of care when it comes to marketing and presentation, poor understanding of the properties they are selling and the client’s particular requirements, incomplete or inconsiderate advice given on pricing, no compelling strategy when it comes to achieving the clients’ expectations and timescales, and an all-round lack of flair, imagination or sophistication.

Given the combined monetary and sheer emotional value of what we are dealing with, it staggers me that certain agents are allowed to get away with such shoddy representation.

So you may now be asking what makes Fine & Country so much better or different?

Well, I’m not going to ‘tell’ you because any estate agent can do that. However, I would like the opportunity to ‘show’ you in the comfort of your own home. As the director responsible for Fine & Country’s operations throughout Norfolk, I will back-up what my business offers with actions and you can hold me personally accountable to ensure that is the case.

Excuses, excuses…

In the past week I have personally approached a number of clients whose properties have remained on the market, unsold with other estate agents for surprisingly lengthy time periods, and the feedback being given to them by their agent for why this is the case has been interesting to say the least, in fact let’s make that downright laughable!

These are the top three ‘excuses’: In third place, the poor weather!

In second place, the hangover from the spike in sales activity prior to the stamp duty changes at the end of March?

And in first, the EU referendum.

There were one or two others that I refuse to quote for no other reason than sheer embarrassment and ‘cringeworthiness’ (if there is such a word!).

There is no better indication of how well (or how badly) the house market is performing than by analysing demand from buyers, and in that regard Fine & Country are now back to pre-recession levels of new enquiries. In actual fact, one of our offices has recently been recognised by Rightmove as the sixth best performing microsite in the entire UK, with buyer

levels up 27.3% year on year! And as the graph opposite shows, not only are we attracting huge demand from buyers, in the first quarter of this year we have already sold more than twice the number of properties than our nearest competitor.

So the truth of the matter is that at this wonderful time of the year for gardens, and when the market is traditionally at its very busiest - especially for families wishing to relocate for schools - coupled with some of the best mortgage deals available in an entire generation, there are only two reasons why your property isn’t selling, you’re either with the wrong agent or it’s overpriced.

For expert guidance on pricing strategy and how your property should best be marketed to achieve the very best possible price within your desired timescale, contact your nearest Fine & Country office or call me directly on 01376 505260.

Top marks for the Education Zone “Dear Helen, Thank you again for a great weekend at the show ground.You and your helpers looked after us so well and I particularly appreciated it on Sunday when I was on my own.

In April this year we once again hosted a number of schools in our Education Zone marquee at the East Anglian Game and Country Fair. It was a very successful weekend with a large number of visitors dropping in to meet the Fine & Country team and taking the opportunity to talk to the various schools about the outstanding learning environments they provide.

This year we also welcomed Norfolk Wealth Management and their dramatic pet dragon Argon, who made quite an impression on the children. We ran a competition to guess how many red tiles were used to create his scaly design and are delighted to announce that the lucky winner was Anna Watt who won dinner, bed & breakfast at The Crown Hotel, Woodbridge.

It was a truly enjoyable weekend, with great feedback from the schools involved and also the teams from both Norfolk Wealth Management and our offices, who all enjoyed being able to chat to the visitors and to offer their advice and support about related issues.

We look forward to seeing you all again next year.

I wanted to thank John for the opportunity he gives us as a school to meet potential customers so please pass on thanks from Sacred Heart in Swaffham for his generosity and let him know that it is much appreciated.

We made lots of new contacts and although my feet ache at the end of 2 days it is worth the effort.”

Vivienne Phillips Sacred Heart School, Swaffham

“Dear Helen, Thank you for an excellent couple of days at the Game Fair, and for making us feel so welcome. Please pass on a big thank you to your very helpful team as we were looked after extremely well.

We've enjoyed being part of the Education Zone and look forward to working together again next year.”

Give your property, development or farm that extra selling edge with unique and beautiful aerial photography

Aerial Drone Photography Aerial photography can enhance the presentation of all types of property by capturing unique perspectives, stunning landscape views, incredible grounds and envious locations.

Small unmanned vehicles (commonly known as drones) utilise exciting new technology to capture high quality photographic still images and smooth 4k video.

In farming and agriculture, unlike ground based photography, drones can be employed for efficient inspection of crops, recording images of the landscape and farm buildings from the air. In the architectural, surveying and construction industries drones are a great tool to capture elevated views of projects, a unique way of showcasing your ‘before and after’picture gallery.

Graeme Taplin is director and pilot, qualified with CAA Permission for Aerial Work. Drone Photography Ltd carries full public liability insurance and undertake a safety and risk assessment of all planned drone flying operations.

Hamiltons Removals operates in five markets Domestic, Overseas, European, Corporate and Commercial. It has, during its twenty three years of trading, gone from strength to strength with the key to the company’s success being able to provide an efficient, cost effect service whilst maintaining the personal touch.

Whether clients are moving somewhere local, further afield or even abroad, Hamiltons can help. If customers have sold their property but are not yet ready to move into their next one, Hamiltons have storage facilities at their Norfolk & Suffolk depots, which are fully secure and alarmed. These facilities are available on a short or long term basis, in storage containers that are designed to keep goods clean, dry and safe. For more information visit www.hamiltonsremovals.co.uk

Why having a Pension isn’t the same as having a Retirement Plan With the government forcing all employers to provide a workplace pension by February 2018, it has never been clearer that the government wants us to start making our own plans for retirement. It could be a stretch to take this as a sign that the state pension might not be here for the long term but, then again, nothing is guaranteed and it is widely considered that, with the population aging and living longer, the current benefits system is unsustainable. Irrespective, it is fair to say that having a pension is a good thing and will help towards a more comfortable retirement.

Having a pension, however, is really just the starting point. Without a retirement plan behind it, a pension alone is really like setting off on a road trip with no map or destination in mind. For some, just contributing to a pension and hoping that it is worth something at retirement is enough. In fact the vast majority of people I speak to are in exactly this situation – they might have a couple of pensions sat idle from previous employment and will usually be contributing an arbitrary amount to their current workplace pension. Almost always though, they have no idea what their pensions are worth or what they might be worth at retirement, specifically in terms of a tax-free lump sum and income. Often people do not know what funds they are invested in, what level of risk they are taking and whether their funds are performing well. A key point people are rarely aware of is that they are usually paying an annual management charge, external fund charges and an ongoing adviser charge.

This adviser charge is taken to pay a financial adviser to review, monitor and adapt your retirement plan depending on your changing needs however, more than likely, you will not have seen your adviser since you set the pension up.

Perhaps more importantly, many people will not be aware of their options at retirement. Since the ‘pension freedoms’ of last year the options at retirement have

become wider and, for many, more confusing.

Pre-2011 there was a requirement to purchase an annuity at retirement however there are now options including Uncrystallised Fund Pension Lump Sums, Flexible Income Drawdown and, of course, still annuities all of which come with their own pro’s, con’s and tax implications. There is no ‘one size fits all’ and it is therefore important to take professional advice to ensure that you do not disadvantage yourself by taking the wrong option.

The benefits of pre-retirement advice are fairly obvious but, even if you are in the middle of your career and retirement seems a long way off, it is still worth speaking with a pension professional who can help you understand when you might be able to retire, how much you might have to live off and what you might need to contribute monthly to achieve your goals.

Our wealth managers are available to visit you in your home at a convenient time and offer a no obligation consultation to explore you retirement plans and where you might be headed.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invest.

The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from taxation, can change at any time and are dependent on individual circumstances.

Introducing our City Collection.

Contact Helen Plumstead now on 01603 221888 Helen Plumstead City Collection Manager/Valuer

The City Collection Properties in Norwich City Centre and the immediate surrounds have continued to be in high demand and this trend is set to last.

With Norwich being rated as one of the safest places in the country to live, coupled with some of the best schooling available, it is understandable why our fine city remains such a popular place to live. If you would like further information on schooling please call us on 01603 221888 and we will be pleased to send you our 2016 edition of the Fine & Country Guide to Education.

Why choose Fine & Country Not only do we offer a bespoke brochure with professional photography and journalism, our experienced sales team have a sound knowledge of many of their buyers and therefore knows exactly what they are looking for in their next home. This is an important consideration when deciding which agent to place one of your greatest assets with, and your decision should not be based solely on which agent can offer you the lowest fee.

Our aim is to not only achieve the best possible price for your property, but to introduce you to the right buyer and one who has been qualified financially.

Highly Recommended “I want to thank you, Helen and all the others at Fine and Country for your excellent work in selling our house. Right from the outset you were all enthusiastic, friendly and completely on the ball. Of all the various bodies involved in the sale, you were by far the most efficient. We felt that you always had our interests at heart, and were quite often one or two steps ahead of us. Selling property is a tense business, fraught with haz`rds, but we always felt we could rely on your calmness and persistence. We had a wide choice of agents to entrust our house to, but could not have done better than select you. Many thanks.”

Stephen Adamson

“I just wanted to thank you for helping me with the sale of my house. Your help throughout the process, particularly from Natasha was first class, and, as ever, Sally was wonderful too – I have been happily recommending you to others” Jonathan Briggs

“I wanted to drop you a line to commend Richard, who has provided outstanding client care throughout the whole process. In particular he has been an extremely valuable conduit between the two parties and respective solicitors, often seeking to assist where the process seemed delayed/stuck. In my past experience, estate agents tend to be quite passive once solicitors have been instructed.

Richard's more active approach certainly was appreciated.”
