The Brief
An energy cost effective downsize!
Our clients were looking to downsize from their house in Dorset to somewhere a bit more central. It needed to be eco-friendly as the property was going to be their retirement home and rising energy costs were on going concern.
How we helped
Navigating the lows and highs!
When our clients purchased their previous house, they drove 14,000 miles and viewed 86 houses before finding the house that worked for them. My role was to do the heavy lifting, and I set myself a challenge of finding the house within the first 10. I found it in four. It was a probate sale, so the property had to go to the open market, but we were the first people through the door. It then went to best and finals and we were at first unsuccessful as another party pressed the nuclear button. I kept in touch with the agent believing there was a strong possibility it would fall through, and it did. I renegotiated and secured the property for a lower price than we had previously offered.
