New Blackmore Vale, September 3, 2021 109 Property Battens: Property market ‘still buoyant’

Battens Solicitors says the property market in Somerset and Dorset is still buoyant despite a national report claiming the market is slowing down. The Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors’ (RICS) monthly survey of members reports that in July there were signs that the recent frenetic activity in the property market was beginning to slow down as Stamp Duty Relief began to taper off. Sarah Ford, the head of residential property at Battens, says enquiries for conveyancing are still flooding in. “The market has not cooled in Somerset and Dorset, in fact the opposite is true and that the market here is quite buoyant,” she said. “We are still very busy, instructions are still coming in and it’s not just properties under the £250k price bracket hoping to make a saving before the end of the current SDLT holiday –it’s across the board.” Sarah says the property market is providing a challenging environment for buyers in particular due to the lack of homes coming on to the market. “Certainly, the lack of availability of housing was a pattern I saw emerging long before the pandemic, but now we are seeing an increase in the number of buyers from outside the South West,” said Sarah. “This is very much helping to fuel the market in Somerset and Dorset presently. I have many clients who have sold, but struggle when looking for somewhere to buy as houses come onto the market and are snapped up immediately for often over the asking price. We are all fortunate to live and work in such a beautiful part of the country and with working from home becoming the norm it has widened some buyers’ house search remit.”
