Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and East Oxfordshire Market Comment June/ July 2011
The property market continues to be confused when it comes to pricing and is very much a two tier market. We are witnessing more and more would be sellers in the upper end insisting on their home being marketed ‘privately’ to gauge opinion. However the ‘best of breed’ continue to sell quickly and as more would be buyers decide to move into rented accommodation, competition will only increase over the next year and we will start to see prices for these rare gems rise.
The middle to lower end of the market is very sporadic with certain properties selling quickly while others languish around for months for no obvious reason.
We feel now is an excellent time to purchase, the pending school holidays does remove certain buyers from the market for the next couple of months and viewing levels on properties will drop making some keen to sell vendors anxious and maybe willing to accept less!
