Clyde Property Clarkston 2018 – Rightmove’s Top Performing Local Agent!
Our Clarkston branch has had a fantastic year in 2018, showing huge growth during a time where the number of transactions across the market was actually declining. Local knowledge and expertise is still at the heart of what vendors expect from their estate agent and our Clarkston branch increased the volume of instructions by 34% during 2018 listing 251 homes and sales figures followed a similar trajectory with 87% achieving Home Report Value or above.
Throughout 2018, the Clyde Clarkston branch was placed first in the local market for instructions and sales and achieved in excess of £2.5million over Home Report value for our clients.
Demand in 2019
Despite a degree of political uncertainty surrounding Brexit, we have seen no negative affect on the market and we do not expect this to cause any slow down in the coming months. Demand is still completely outstripping supply in the East Renfrewshire area with our first listing of 2019 in Clarkston having already seen over 40 viewers and 8 notes of interest within 1 week. We have a strong database of buyers for all family homes across Clarkston, Giffnock, Newton Mearns and Netherlee.
Properties in the £200,000 – £300,000 price bracket including highly sought after semi-detached villas within the Clarkston area are performing exceptionally well, with detached bungalows up to £500,000 also seeing increased interest. Netherlee bungalows and traditional villas up to £450,000 are also seeing strong viewing numbers with closing dates and sales figures to match. In Giffnock, our database of buyers for traditional villas and larger bungalows up to £600,000 has never been stronger.
Our advice is to move now
With strong market confidence there has been a shift in buyer behaviour with many choosing to try and buy first – creating chains. Our advice would be to sell first, making the most of market and quantifying your budget for your purchase.
Whatever your plan, the first step would be to have a professional valuation carried out of your home. Should you be thinking of a move, our Area Director, Greg Wilkinson, would be delighted to chat with you and advise on the best plan of action moving forward.
