Dear Neighbour,


We have just agreed a sale of a property on Dulwich Close in Newport Pagnell for £250,000 and set a new precedent for the highest price achieved for a two-bedroom on the street.
There were several buyers that missed out on the property due to high demand and we have

Sale Agreed Letter 2


Dear Neighbours,


It has come to our attention that you have recently agreed a sale on your property and we wanted to take this opportunity to say congratulations.
Are you looking to stay local and can we help you find your next home?


Depending on your specific needs, we may have the property you're looking for on the market right now already.


We know that what's on the open market is just a tiny snapshot of what is really available at any one time too. 
We're fortunate enough to have a long list of would-be clients, who've given us permission to contact them should the right buyer appear and can also target specific properties on your behalf that are not yet on the open market with innovative technology.


Every home is on the market, it’s just the more motivated one’s that put for sale signs up or
place their property on a portal. 


If you'd prefer to look at a property that's not yet on the active market, I'd welcome a conversation and we'd love to help.


We may have a home for you!


We wish you the best of luck with your own sale in the meantime and look forward to talking with you in the near future.


Sincerely,
Homesearch

The average property price in MK16 is £332,296 and would mean that approximately £52,835,064 worth of new builds have been sold in the last 5 years.


There have been 1,431 transactions across MK16 since December 2015 and new builds account for around 11% of this.

This could range from remortgaging to paying off the help to buy loan or selling the existing property and finding another home.


There are plenty of options to consider and if any of this resonates with you, or you know someone that it would, and want to find out more, please do feel free to get in contact with us.

New listing in the area letter


Dear Neighbours,


We wanted to share some of the things we talk about with each and every one of our clients before we sell their homes.

If you have these conversations up front, it makes for a smooth process throughout.

How did you find this home?

There is a strong possibility that the way you found this home could be the same way that your next buyer finds the home.

Is your property being marketed in a way to attract a similar outcome?

What was it that attracted you to buy this home?

The chances are that the things that attracted you to this home will be the same for the next buyer as well.
Is your agent highlighting these features prominently enough?

On a scale of 1 to 10, where would you see your home sitting now? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 5.

Is your property priced right and marketed correctly to attract a buyer?
Have you sold a property before and how would you describe the experience?
If you have not sold before what was the experience like as a buyer?

What are the 3 most important things that you want from your estate agent and are these being matched?

Do you have any ideas on how you would like to market your home to improve upon the
current marketing?

Have you spoken to any other agents and what have their suggestions been to improve the marketing and increase your chances of selling?

If you have any questions about me or my company and how we can help you get moved, please do feel free to get in contact.


Yours Sincerely,
Homesearch
