Market Comment SALES As we head into summer and the sun has at last made an appearance (for now!) the property market in our area of North and North West London continues to perform above expectations.
Simon Gerrard MNAEA, MARLA Managing Director
I have recently seen in the media, stories saying that late spring and early summer were quieter than normal. With many estate agents reporting a reduction in the number of sales they had agreed. I am pleased to report that Martyn Gerrard Estate Agents have bucked this trend and we saw record months in May, June and July for the number of sales we have agreed and the prices we have achieved for our vendors. The year started with a rise in the number of serious buyers registering with us, and this has continued into the summer months, even during the Jubilee celebrations when everyone thought the market would be much quieter.
that comes to the market is letting quickly and all our branches are receiving enquiries from tenants wanting to live in our area. It is clear that prospective tenants are prepared to pay top prices provided the property is of a good enough standard. If you are a landlord or are thinking about entering the buy to let market, any of our ARLA qualified letting staff will be happy to advise on the type of property and the standard of decoration and fittings that will achieve the best rent.
MARTYN GERRARD ESTATE AGENTS – Working even harder to sell and let your home At Martyn Gerrard we understand the importance of ensuring your property receives the biggest impact when it comes to the market and is seen by as wide an audience as possible, this is why we are increasing our
We saw record months in May, June and July for the number of sales we have agreed and the prices we have achieved for our vendors.
I am pleased to report that the first time buyer market remains strong with a quarter of buyers registering with us looking for their first home. However the greatest demand is for family houses. The total buying power of those registered with us is over £850m and the lack of property coming onto the market means that many of those who do choose to sell now will command a premium price.

Over the next few weeks we are opening a new branch and you will see a number of exciting innovations and changes that we are bringing to Martyn Gerrard Estate Agents each aimed at improving our service and making us the agent of choice for home sellers across North & North West London – but more about that in the next edition of our Property Review in September/October.

When You Are Ready To Sell...
T
he decision has been made, and the time has come to put your property on the market....
What do you do now? For many the next steps can seem daunting, but at Martyn Gerrard Estate Agents we are on hand to help guide you through each stage. We have previously talked about how to prepare and present your home for marketing, but here are some other matters you need to consider.
Independent Financial Advice The first thing you should do is consider how you are going to finance your purchase.
They will make enquiries and raise questions based on the local searches and the information that has been supplied to them. Your buyer and/or their lender will require a survey to be carried out on your property. The time it will take to carry out the survey will obviously depend on the size of your property and also the type of survey your buyer has requested.
Removals If you are going to need a mortgage, our approved independent financial advisors can help identify the mortgage best suited to your circumstances and will assist you through the lenders application form and follow up the application on your behalf.
Instructing a Solicitor If you do not already have a solicitor to carry out the Conveyancing for you, we can help by recommending good solicitors in your area. You could also go on line and check the Law Society website to find a suitable solicitor. Instructing a solicitor at this stage will enable you to get the required paper work and forms completed in your own time. These will include: the property information form, fixtures and fittings form and Leasehold information form (if applicable). Your solicitor will need details of any guarantees for works you have had done to the property such as rewiring or damp courses and if you have had any building work done, copies of relevant planning documents may be needed. They will also need to know who the lender is if the property is mortgaged. The more details that can be gathered at this early stage, the quicker the necessary information and documents can be provided to the other side’s solicitors once a buyer has been found. As soon as a buyer is found your chosen solicitor will send all the documentation onto your buyer’s solicitor.
You will need to find a reputable removal firm. We can provide details of local companies or you can check the British Association of Removers (BAR) website. Make sure that the removal firm you do select has comprehensive insurance cover against damage or loss of your goods and confirm your specific requirements. Once you have been given your fixed completion date contact your removal company and start packing.
Exchange of Contracts Once your buyer’s solicitor is satisfied with the answers and information they have been given, they will approve the Contract and a date for Completion will be agreed between you and your buyer. Your solicitor will invite you in to their office to go over the documents and to sign the contract. Exchange of Contracts will take place, usually by way of a telephone call between both solicitors.
Completion Day Once all the legal paperwork has been finished and both solicitors have confirmed that everything is in place, the balance of the money will be electronically transferred from the buyer’s solicitor to your solicitor and legal completion will have taken place. This usually happens early in the afternoon. If we are holding the keys we will give them to the buyer, only when we have confirmation from your solicitor that completion has taken place.
