As the holiday season gets into full swing, whilst it is no doubt quieter, we are always surprised at how much activity there.

Whilst it has generally been a wet and frustrating month weatherwise. The sun did break through on a few days and I thought I would share some photos I took at Bosworth Water Park. The park is simply idyllic and living in one of the Lodges overlooking the Lakes is the perfect spot for a lazy gin and tonic. We really enjoy being involved in the marketing of the development and would highly recommend anybody looking for a holiday home to go and have a look.

We have taken on some lovely properties over the last month and highlights include an exquisite barn conversion on the edge of Nailstone and a barn in Shenton, which has already sold.

It was disappointing to see interest rates rise again at the beginning of August and undoubtedly it has affected the market.

However, I would say that a lot of properties have been ambitiously priced and it has become clear to us that where vendors are prepared to be realistic, houses are continuing to sell.

As a Company we are becoming much more focused on helping our clients negotiate their purchase and the key is often how much is the price to change.

As ever, if you need some advice about your property or are thinking of moving please contact myself or Angela.
