Where did the summer go?
It seems like only yesterday we were packing away the office
Christmas decorations and looking forward to a busy year and
yet here we are enjoying the last few warm rays of the summer.
An autumn market beckons with children back to school and a
renewed focus on sales and lettings before the inevitable slide
into the festive season again!
And what of the property market? 2014 has been a very busy year
with a return of confidence (to a point) and certainly an increased
willingness by purchasers to become purchasers again!
The market is far from predictable though with not only regional
variations but also discrepancies in property types and price points
– but the market is moving. Analysts and economists predict that
house prices will show an annual growth here of 3% - 4% and
if this transpires it will be a healthier market for all. Predictable,
sustainable and modest growth in any market is ideal – large
peaks can only lead to one outcome...
Lettings remain strong with city centre rental values in particular
showing a real increase. Lettings across all price points are
also in demand with an encouraging trend from corporate
companies relocating personnel to Northern Ireland - which is
a very encouraging sign for everyone. But be warned! There
are no ‘shortcuts’ when it comes to renting out property. There
is a constant stream of legislation to be complied with from
compulsory Landlord’s Registration to Gas Safety Regulations and
Energy Performance Certification to Certificates of Fitness..and
so the list goes on! Make sure you get the best advice – there are
severe penalties for those who do not comply.
As we become immersed in the autumn / winter market season,
we are perfectly placed to offer personal advice in all aspects
of residential estate agency. Whether you are considering
purchasing, selling, letting out, renting or wish to have your
property fully managed, you can be sure of getting the best
possible ‘one to one’ attention.
Our service has been widely remarked on and recommended. We
look forward to being of assistance to you.
Meantime, where did we put those decorations....?
