The Bridgnorth office of Berriman Eaton experienced a very strong month of sales in May, a massive 80% increase on their sales figures in May 2012.Bruce Attwood, Manager of Bridgnorth commented, “2013 has seen a marked rise in sales numbers from what we achieved in 2012, with May being the outstanding month so far. We hope that the trend continues as the figures prove that confidence is filtering through, whilst sellers are realizing that if they market at a realistic price, a sale will be achieved at a competitive price. We achieved over 50 sales in May throughout our 3 offices, a truly fantastic result that should provide buyers and sellers alike with the confidence that the market is faring well.”
“Many clients have been asking if prices are rising, and at what rate, as the press have reported recently that prices are heading in that direction. Although we are experiencing such good results, prices certainly do not show any significant change, however there does seem to be a shortage of properties coming to the market. In the Bridgnorth area properties under £250,000 have been our best sellers so there is currently a severe lack of properties at that level.”
