Case Study 1

When Olga Gusan wanted to upgrade to a larger house, she was concerned about the stress and upheaval it would cause. Thanks to Countryside's part-exchange scheme, Olga was able to upgrade to her dream home quickly and easily, without the worry of having to sell her existing two-bedroom property.

Olga’s new three bedroom detached house is at Axis, the latest phase of homes on St Mary’s Island, near Chatham in Kent. Olga already lived on the island and couldn’t envisage living anywhere else. Olga explains “I have always found St Mary’s Island to be a very calm and tranquil place; everything about it makes for a much quieter, cleaner and more relaxed atmosphere, which is why I love it here so much”.

Olga, who works very long hours as an Office Manager in nearby Chatham continues, “I saved myself a lot of time and energy and received such excellent service when I first bought with Countryside Maritime, that it made obvious sense to part exchange with them. In other circumstances, moving house is associated with a lot of stress. This time my move ran extremely smoothly and I completed in less than three weeks.”

The Part Exchange Scheme gives buyers peace of mind because there’s no chance of the sale of their existing property falling through. Countryside Maritime will organise for three independent local estate agents to value your home and based on these valuations, will make you an offer for your home that reflects its market value. There are no estate agents fees to pay, no chains and no hassle, making it a very cost effective and convenient way to move.
