Finding a Property

Top Three Tips on where to look to help you find a property!

1. It's fine to do an initial search on property internet sites, but don't rely on them for your

viewing decision making. Always check local property newspapers and do drive bys!

2. Estate agents will be helpful IF you have done some research beforehand and

are clear on what is available in your budget. Give a list of your 'needs -v- wants'.

3. Visit an auction, talk to friends or family, even put a letter through doors of properties

you like. If you can afford to, contact a property finding agent.

We use the websites below to carry out property research. Rightmove has the

most properties; EIGroup accesses auctions across the UK and ARP lists property finders.
