Or are you looking to buy a holiday home and not sure where to start? Perhaps you can’t get up here in time for the all-important viewings and to get that quick sale?

Using her knowledge and experience gained as a local estate agent, she will provide insight and an honest opinion. 2. Property Viewing Service Gemma will view properties on your behalf if you can’t be here, making property suggestions that you may not have considered, looking at the bigger picture and potential of a property to suit your family requirements. She will also help understand any local quirks and challenges that need to be navigated, such as rights of way, septic tanks or flood drainage for example. 3.
