Location is Still King: Even with Premium Prices, Buyers Undeterred


Who wouldn’t want to live in an idyllic place, such as in one of Britain’s thirteen national parks, in a location named as one of the country’s forty-six areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONBs)? Who wouldn’t want to wake up every day to stunning views and the tranquil sounds of the countryside? Can you imagine having your morning coffee while gazing out at the sun just rising up from wooded hills—and winding up for the day with a glass of wine watching the sun setting on an unlimited view of the sea? Among the specific regions where you could enjoy these ideal locations are in the South Downs National Park and the Chichester AONB. However, as market dictates, the luxury of stunning views comes at a premium, with such homes costing far more than outside those regions. There’s also a natural lack of supply of these prime homes because of the areas’ development restrictions.

Estate Agents in Chichester: Positive Market from Post-Election Bounce


Interested home buyers should start searching now, as property supply is at its lowest amid increase in demand, according to a recent Telegraph report. In the article, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) warned of a severe shortage of homes for sale due to Britain’s ageing home owners moving less frequently. RICS also predicted that house prices will further rise in the next five years as a result. Supplies are at its lowest Currently, numbers of homes for sale are at their lowest since market statistics were first recorded back in 1978. As the supply shortens, the demand reportedly continues to increase mainly due to recent Government policies like the “Help to Buy” scheme. RICS also correctly predicted that prices would surge after the May election.

Securing Property for Sale in Chichester Areas such as Summersdale


We at Hancock always aim to be a reliable estate agency that people can turn to when they are looking for a property for sale in Chichester, and our performance reflects how greatly we achieve this goal. For this update, we’ll focus on the neighbourhood of Summersdale, one of the most desirable residential areas of Chichester. Summersdale is about half a mile to the north of the city centre giving its residents easy access to the city. Reaching the city only takes a couple of minutes driving or about 10 minutes walking. Commuting isn’t a problem either with the frequent bus service. This kind of proximity to the city centre would usually mean that the bustle of the daily life in the city compromises the peace and quiet of an area. Fortunately, this is not the case in Summersdale and that largely contributes to the charm of the neighbourhood.
