Welcome to the Spring edition of our View magazine.<br />
Inside you’ll find a selection of houses and apartments<br />
for sale and to let, both in Cambridge and the<br />
surrounding villages. There are also details of some of<br />
the brand new homes that we are currently marketing.<br />
As well as available properties, we take<br />
a look at why the kitchen is the most<br />
important room in the house when it comes<br />
to selling (with some stunning examples)<br />
and Jane Bailey discusses why it pays to be<br />
on the case when it comes to chains. We<br />
also highlight our Feefo feedback system<br />
which gives our clients the chance to leave<br />
feedback on any aspect of the service they<br />
receive from us.<br />
Now that Spring is officially here, we’re<br />
already seeing a big increase in viewings.<br />
It’s traditionally the busiest time of the year<br />
and we are delighted to have such a good<br />
selection of properties for sale and to<br />
let,<br />
both at our Cambridge office and our<br />
branch<br />
in Great Shelford.<br />

CHAIN REACTION:<br />
take the stress out of<br />
buying and selling<br />
So how do we make sure a chain stays<br />
together? Well, here is my list of top tips to<br />
ensure a smooth sale.<br />
Paperwork, paperwork,<br />
paperwork. If you are selling,<br />
get your initial paperwork<br />
done early – a solicitor<br />
cannot send out a draft<br />
contract until you have filled<br />
out the forms they need to<br />
check you are who you say<br />
you are. There is no point insisting on a fast<br />
exchange of contracts if you delay the start<br />
of the process.<br />
“Many people think<br />
they have sold when<br />
they accept an offer.”<br />
If you’ve had work done to the house, make<br />
sure you have the guarantees or building<br />
regulation sign-off to prove that everything<br />
has been completed properly.<br />
On the buyer’s side, providing the right<br />
paperwork on time is key to getting a<br />
mortgage offer quickly. Mortgage offers take<br />
more time than you think. If that utility bill is<br />
out of date by the time you send it, you will<br />
have to start again<br />
I was recently asked what was the biggest<br />
property chain I’ve found myself working in?<br />
Last year our Cambridge office had a chain with<br />
12 properties. Agreed, that is pretty unusual, but<br />
this particular deal was a split chain where one of<br />
the couples in the chain each had a house to sell,<br />
adding to the numbers involved.<br />
That’s 12 different sets of buyers (20 individuals,<br />
as many were couples), 12 surveyors, 12 solicitors<br />
and countless chances for the deals to fall flat.<br />
Jane Bailey,<br />
Cambridge Office<br />
It wasn’t the most straightforward. but we got<br />
that deal over the line. It was nice to hear from<br />
our client afterwards that they felt it definitely<br />
wouldn’t have gone through without us.<br />
Many people think they have sold when they<br />
accept an offer. However, until contracts have<br />
been exchanged, either side can pull out of the<br />
sale, buyer or seller. And, across the country,<br />
35% of agreed sales fall through, not only causing<br />
distress to at least one side but also incurring<br />
expensive solicitor and surveyor fees.<br />
Communication is king. With a chain,<br />
making sure that milestones are reached at<br />
the right time is vital. With the rise of online<br />
estate agents and solicitors, talking to a<br />
real person about eliminating a blockage in<br />
the sales pipeline is becoming more<br />
and more difficult. Having someone<br />
on your side who can talk to (and<br />
badger) the different estate agents,<br />
solicitors, surveyors and other<br />
professionals is really important<br />
Don’t underestimate the importance of<br />
your agent’s office. This is the place that<br />
surveyors come to get access to conduct<br />
the survey. It is also the place where keys<br />
can be held, ready to be handed over to the<br />
buyer as soon as completion takes place.<br />
Having someone on hand who knows the<br />
sale inside out, definitely helps to keep<br />
things on track.<br />
“Mortgage offers<br />
take more time<br />
than you think.”<br />

A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS:<br />
smarten up your kitchen<br />
It’s not just the likes of Gordon Ramsay, Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver who love spending time in the<br />
kitchen. Over the years we’ve seen plenty of prospective buyers fall head over heels with a home after<br />
laying eyes on a well-designed, stylish kitchen. If a kitchen has the wow factor buyers often develop the<br />
‘we want it now factor’.<br />
Think about it though for a minute. We spend a lot of time in our kitchen, especially if it is spacious enough<br />
to include a breakfast /dining area. It’s often where we start the day, where families socialise and of course<br />
it’s a great spot to hang out at a party. It’s been said that life is often created in bedrooms but lived out in<br />
kitchens.<br />
We’re often asked by vendors what’s the most important room from a buyer’s perspective. In our experience,<br />
we’d have to say it’s usually the kitchen.<br />
If you are going to spend money getting your home ready to market think carefully about how your kitchen<br />
looks, feels and if it needs upgrading. If you need inspiration, just take a look at some of these stunners<br />
from houses that have been on the market with us recently.<br />
“We spend a lot of time in our kitchens, especially if it is<br />
spacious enough to include a breakfast /dining area.”<br />

Renting out property<br />
It’s a business<br />
not a love affair<br />
5<br />
No one loves a cheap skate. It’s<br />
fair to say that you will very likely<br />
be financially better off in the long<br />
term by spending more at the<br />
outset. It doesn’t have to be “highend”,<br />
just reasonably good quality.<br />
For example, when buying paint<br />
7<br />
Another thing to consider when<br />
initially kitting out your property is<br />
the decor, carpets, curtains et cetera.<br />
In general terms neutral colours<br />
usually work best since they appeal<br />
to the masses. And they’re easy to<br />
coordinate with when you’re new<br />
go for a good brand like Dulux as<br />
tenant wants to “make it their home”.<br />
opposed to your local DIY store’s<br />
Unless you’re a bit of an expert at<br />
own brand. A brand like Dulux will<br />
interior design, it’s probably best to<br />
last much longer and stand up<br />
keep it neutral.<br />
to things like cleaning off scuffs;<br />
unlike cheap imitations which will<br />
invariably wash off with the scuff!<br />
1<br />
If you’re interested in the buy<br />
to let business for the sake of<br />
investment and financial gain, then<br />
it’s important to “keep it strictly<br />
business”. Don’t take a viewer not<br />
wanting to move in personally or get<br />
annoyed when a tenant decides to<br />
move out.<br />
3We know you’ve heard it<br />
before but location, location,<br />
location. Tenants, especially<br />
busy professionals, love a<br />
good location. It needs to be<br />
convenient to transportation<br />
(the nearer to a train station<br />
the better) as well as shops and<br />
increasingly cafes and coffee<br />
shops. And if it’s convenient<br />
to schools, green spaces,<br />
restaurants, cinemas or the<br />
theatre then even better.<br />
When making your purchase discard the<br />
2<br />
things that might be attractive to you if you<br />
were going to live in the property. What<br />
matters is selecting a property that will be<br />
attractive to the masses.<br />
4<br />
When you rent out your property ensure<br />
that it’s fitted out to a good standard. Good<br />
quality fittings will not only attract good<br />
quality tenants, they will also attract better<br />
rental values. And as the years go by you<br />
will find yourself spending less on repairs<br />
and upgrades. Be warned though we’ve<br />
seen many a landlord pay dearly for cheap<br />
fittings/materials and/or cheap labour.<br />
6Another example is washing machines. Buy a cheap washing machine (let’s face it, you can<br />
get them very cheap these days) and don’t be surprised if you only get a year or two out of<br />
it before you’re spending on (not so cheap) repairs. Spend a bit more on something like a<br />
Bosch and you can typically expect to get 10 years out of it – and probably with no repairs at<br />
all. The Bosch certainly works out cheaper in the long run, so works out far cheaper! It’s also<br />
a better machine and more of a pleasure to use, and tenants appreciate these things. (And<br />
we all love not having to arrange a time to let engineers in to carry out repairs and wait in for<br />
them.)<br />
8Be extra careful when buying leasehold<br />
10<br />
property. Check the terms of the lease very<br />
carefully. And be even more careful about<br />
buying “new builds”. Especially if they are<br />
brand new. We see so many problems with<br />
bad workmanship that landlords are left to<br />
deal with. We have clients who have spent<br />

expertise and advice.<br />
One idea is to have a totally separate bank<br />
account for your property dealings where<br />
payments in and out can be easily accounted<br />
for. Ideally have three months worth of rent in<br />
the account at all times to cover unexpected<br />
costs, repairs and voids.<br />
