Part Exchange Case Study 4
Trouble selling your home? Shawn and Louise show Stoke how it’s done...
If you’re trying to move house at the moment, you might be thinking the odds are stacked against you. It is no secret that the property scene has suffered a slowdown in the last year, with many sellers either forced to reduce the asking price of their home or withdraw from the market altogether. How then, you might ask, did Shawn and Louise Gallimore move into their new home at Sadlers Park in Burslem within weeks of finding it and escape unscathed?
Enjoy a stress free move!
With many prospective buyers put off by the thought of a long and drawn out sale or the heartbreak of finding a dream home just to watch it slip away, Shawn and Louise’s story is not one you hear often in today’s uncertain climate; the couple had literally just started thinking about upsizing to a bigger home with their little boy Owen (three) when they came across Sadlers Park. Deciding straight away that it was perfect for them, they experienced a relatively stress free and enjoyable move thanks to Countryside Properties’ Part Exchange Scheme. Shawn even recommended the development to his cousin, who is now living there too with his wife and daughter.
Shawn explains how all of the risks and worry that can come with a traditional house sale were never even a concern for his family, “We bought our home, just as the market was slowing down and others were talking about holding off until buying conditions improved. Some might think we were mad, but we were outgrowing our old three bedroom home and didn’t want to wait.
“I can see why people might be cautious about buying now, but as a buyer, I would expect there to be ups and downs in the market, so it didn’t really bother me. We would have been reluctant to accept anything less than what our old house was worth, but we had found a home we wanted to live in and Countryside Properties was offering us the chance to guarantee that home and buy our old home off us at market value, so I personally think we’d have been mad not to go for it.”
Overlooking the Fowley Valley and Staffordshire Moorlands, Sadlers Park boasts a range of one and two bedroom apartments and three and four bedroom houses. 2 four bedroom homes are ready to move into and Countryside Properties is currently offering buyers at Sadlers Park the opportunity to part exchange their old property at 110% of its market value.
