I wished to acquire an investment property in London to take advantage of the opportunities created by Brexit uncertainty. I had previously bought my own home in London and that had highlighted what a time-consuming process acquiring a property really is; time I simply don’t have to spare calling estate agents and then having it wasted viewing properties that are frankly average or worse.
I had requested Jeremy McGivern’s book a couple of years ago and have been receiving his market reports and updates, so knew that he had not only an exceptional understanding of what was happening in the market day to day, but his understanding of the history of the London property market and the property cycle gave him and his team an additional edge.
Having become a member of Mercury Homesearch, buying a property became a completely different experience. Instead of being constantly sold to by the estate agents, Mercury spent most of their time advising me not to bother seeing any properties as they felt they were not of the requisite standard. They eventually found one particular opportunity for me, which also involved renting the property back to the owners thus avoiding any “rental void”, they negotiated a favourable price and also handled the elongated purchase process – there were legal issues on the seller’s side that complicated matters – co-ordinating the solicitors & surveyors to ensure a successful outcome.
I now have an excellent investment property bought at a good price. If you are thinking of buying a property in London, you should contact Mercury Homesearch to help you.
