The brief
A couple approached Buying Agent Partnership looking for a period farmhouse in Suffolk with a budget of £850,000. They were retiring and relocating from Sussex and, with little knowledge of the area, wanted help in finding correctly priced and dog-friendly surroundings.
Search Criteria
- Period farmhouse – A property with character and a traditional feel
- Good amount of land – To provide a safe area to exercise their dogs off-lead.
- £850,000 – Ensuring that any property was accurately priced
- Rural location – Providing picturesque views and countryside for walking in
How Buying Agent Partnership helped
The client came to our services searching for their perfect property – so Buying Agent Partnership got to work! Together with our property agents, we devised a search area and screened new properties coming to market over a 5-month period, video-viewing more than 20 options. Via a contact we learned that the owner of a property already on the market at £1.1m was getting desperate to sell, and we secured it within budget. We’ve secured more than 30 rural houses in this price range for clients over the last decade – so it was another win for the Buying Agent Partnership team!
The Happy Ending
Our Suffolk property finder was able to secure the perfect property for their client, within their budget and in the perfect location for the pair. The clients were happy customers!
