Beat the property market with part-exchange

More and more homeowners are taking advantage of current market conditions to move to a larger, better quality home whilst side-stepping the problem of finding a buyer for their existing property, according to David Wilson North East.

The leading upmarket housebuilder says levels of interest in its part exchange service are at a new high because of difficulties which homeowners experience when they try to sell their own home in the current market.

“The company has been offering a part exchange service for 30 years but we’ve never had so many prospective buyers looking to make use of it,” said Fenton Hewitt, Sales Director at David Wilson North East.

“People are coming to us who are understandably impatient to move up the property ladder now. Because of the fall in house prices in the last four years, the gap between the price of your present home and the one you want to move up to is likely to be significantly smaller than it was in 2007.

“But we are hearing horror stories at the moment about the difficulty of trying to sell your old property. Not only is it hard even to find a buyer in the second-hand market, sometimes when you do find one they drop out or demand the price is lowered.”

Through its part exchange service, David Wilson North East could buy your home at an independently valued, fair market price and help you move in as little as a month. You could buy and sell in one easy go and side-step most of the hassle and cost usually associated with selling your property.

“Part exchange makes life much easier for the time-poor househunter,” added Fenton. “We could buy your home at an independently valued, fair market price, so you don’t need to pay an estate agent and your move could take just one month.

“We will arrange for two valuations of the existing property and then make an offer based on these. We are effectively a cash buyer so there is no chain to worry about.

“There are no uncertainties over dates or last-minute haggling and you can stay in your present place until your new home is ready. We take care of everything.

“If anyone reading this is fed-up with the hassle of trying to sell their existing home in the current market, they are very welcome to call me today to find out more.”

For added peace of mind buyers can also benefit from David Wilson North East’s exclusive five year guarantee on fixtures and fittings in their new home at the time of purchase.
