2021 Review & Market update

2021 Review & Market update –

We get you moving!

The last year has been somewhat of a rollercoaster for the rural property market and in particular for those searching for their dream house. The rush to find houses in good rural country has not waned at all and buyers have had to compete very hard to secure the best properties in the best locations. It has undoubtedly been one of the strongest “sellers’ markets” for rural property that many of us have ever experienced during the last 30 years.

Some useful Rural View statistics from 2021 when compared with our previous 3 year average.

• Sales were up 96%
• Offers were up by 121%
• Buyers registering with RV up by 50%
• Viewings up by 74%

We have experienced incredibly strong bidding with both open market and private sales which has given vendors a choice in their route to market with some fantastic results achieved. What has been unusual about this market is that it has been strong across all price points and the above statistics show that we have been able to successfully generate exceptional interest for our clients.

Supply of good houses in this area is always tight, and people tend to stay in them for a very long time. A succession of lockdowns has not encouraged people to move either and understandably if they are looking to downsize they will be anxious about where they are going to – although we do have a variety of suggestions. This shortage of supply has only fuelled prices which have been outstanding for those prepared to take the plunge.

We listen carefully to what our clients want and deliver bespoke marketing solutions to meet their needs in a timely and efficient manner. The right advice could be discreet private marketing or a full public campaign using a variety of advertising media.
