I own a tired three bedroom semi-detached
house. What practical advice can you give me for
presenting my property when trying to sell it?
First Impressions count and you want to create some
kerb appeal, so varnish and then place some stylish pots
around the front door and get some new door handles.
Sort out the garden by tidying up flower beds, trim
hedges, replace fence panels and cut back any trees that
block out light. You may also want to draw attention to
any attractive features with outdoor lighting.
Every estate agent and property developer knows that
kitchens and bathrooms sell. So replace tired flooring with
value for money vinyl, linoleum or laminate flooring for a
smarter look.
Avoid clutter at all costs, hide away any appliances. The
same goes for the bathroom get rid of cheap shampoo
bottles and invest in some glamorous brands to make
attractive displays.
Add some stylish new taps, towel rails, power showers
and cabinets, as these will add extra value.
Staying neutral, in my opinion, always help sell homes.
Keeping a blank canvas is
best so your new buyers
can start from scratch.
Keep the property classic,
simple and neutral. Use
table lamps to create softer
lighting which will
enhance neutral colours.
Accessorise rooms with
vases and flowers to pre-
vent neutral rooms being
too stark.
One of the most impor-
tant things to do when sell-
ing a property is to keep it
clean. Spruce up the house
with clean and fresh scents.
Litter trays, cat bowls or
hamster cages should be
out of view and of course
ash trays are a complete
no-no.
Good luck
What is ground
rent?
Because leasehold is a tenancy, it's subject to a rent on
the land which is paid to the freeholder. This is paid by the
leaseholder in the form of ground rent. The amount of
ground rent payable must always be identified in the lease.
In some cases, the ground rent will be set at a specific and
unchanging amount. In other instances, the lease will
identify the initial ground rent and increased amounts
payable after specific periods of time.

Owners return to old values
TOUGHER times brought
about by the downturn are
reinstating traditional values
and driving people back to
the hearth and home, says a
survey by the County
Homesearch Company.
Asked to draw on their
experience with clients to
answer what makes a house
into a home, the County
Homesearch regional repre-
sentatives universally identi-
fied the qualities of security,
familiarity, comfort and com-
munity above the more mate-
rial aspects.
Feeling safe and settled in
the home ranked as the most
important factor, with just
under 75 per cent of respon-
dents naming this as their
top concern.
Also key to that homely
feeling is being surrounded
by your own furniture and
taste in decoration, however
old or tatty. Good neighbours
and involvement in the com-
munity, has made a come-
back, ranking third..
On the opposite end of the
spectrum, the survey
revealed trendy gadgets and
wow factors such as heated
swimming pools and tennis
courts were the least impor-
tant for making a home.
Jonathan Haward, manag-
ing director of County
Homesearch, said: The cred-
it crunch has brought a lot of
uncertainty into our lives
and people are drawing com-
fort by returning to the
things that really matter in
life: home, family and com-
munity.

HOPE is on the horizon for first-time
buyers, accourding to leading Fylde
Coast estate agent Farrell Heyworth.
They say there is a glimmer of light for
first-time buyers with the release of
recent information regarding the proper-
ty and mortgage market.
Farrell Heyworth point to four major
factors:
1. The proportion of first time buyers
looking to put a foot on the property lad-
der more than doubled in the first two
weeks of 2009, according to the National
Association of Estate Agents, which
could mean that confidence is returning
in this sector of the market.
2. The release of the latest house price
index by the Halifax showed a rise in
house prices of 1.9 per cent in January,
the first increase since February 2008.
However, Nationwide reported a fall of
1.8 per cent in February, with the typical
price of a house down to 147,746 and
comments that sharp cuts in interest
rates have helped affordability.
3. Northern Rock plans to increase its
mortgage lending with up to 14bn in
new loans by 2011, and could return to
the 90 per cent loan-to-value market.
This has been hailed as a positive step
for the market by The Council of
Mortgage Lenders.
4. The announcement by RBS group that
they are to commit to lend a further 9bn
worth of mortgages over and above
planned levels during 2009 should boost
liquidity and bring further price competi-
tion to the mortgage market.
Whilst no one can predict what will
happen next, house prices have become
more affordable and the above may be
signs that the market is beginning to sta-
bilise, so now may be the time for first
time buyers to take the next steps to get
onto the property ladder.
Many first time buyers believe they
cannot afford to buy but it is realistic
in todays market that you can own a
property at a similar cost to renting.
If you are renting at the moment pay-
ing circa 500 per month in rent, for simi-
lar monthly payments you could buy a
property worth in the region of 95,000
based on a typical first-time buyer mort-
gage with a 10 per cent deposit.
With mortgage lenders having become
more cautious and with products being
introduced and withdrawn far more fre-
quently, Farrell Heyworth say it is now
more important than ever that prospec-
tive first-time buyers seek the advice of
an independent mortgage broker.
All customers will have different priori-
ties that they consider when arranging a
mortgage, and what is deemed important
by one customer may not be by another.
An independent broker will search
across the market to find the most
appropriate product, and will provide
impartial advice based around those
specific requirements, recommend the
most suitable product and manage the
process on behalf of the customer from
application right through to completion
and beyond, keeping the customer fully
informed throughout.

A SEA change in attitudes.
Thats the headline in The
Times newspaper which focus-
es on Blackpool and the
demand for property, in stark
contrast to other daily newspa-
pers that have been negative
about the resort.
The Times continues that
buyers from London and the
South East who might previ-
ously have sneered at
Blackpool and its iconic tower
are acquiring bargain proper-
ty, with some making a perma-
nent move.
Kevin Allitt, managing
director of Oystons said:
Weve seen a lot of profession-
al couples moving up here and
the people who move here from
out of the area tend to be peo-
ple who have been here on hol-
iday and have loved it.
The article goes on to say
that local agent Oystons are
reporting that sales have dou-
bled in February.
Commenting on the article,
Kevin said: I did a telephone
interview with a journalist
who had never been to
Blackpool and despite some
misquotes and editing I man-
aged to get across that
Blackpool is a great place to
buy and live. The article also
said that there was a new
readiness to accept that part of
the resorts appeal may lie in
its dark mournful quality.
Quite where they got that
from is beyond me, said Kevin.
The opposite is true, its
bright, vibrant and exciting.
We are delighted that sales
are increasing and urgently
need more properties to sell,
he added.
Due to increased sales
Oystons urgently need more
properties on their books.

FOUNDED over 44 years ago, and boasting
the title of the longest serving independent
estate agents in the Fylde, Metcalfs is still a
friendly, family-run business which thrives
by treating all clients as individuals.
They have however moved with the times,
and offer the latest in technology.
As well as advertising on site, they adver-
tise in The Gazette and through the internet
via their own constantly updated website
They are members of both Homelink and
the NAEA, a network of estate agents work-
ing with like-minded professionals commit-
ted to making the home move experience
straightforward.
Metcalfs deal with both residential and
commercial sales and also conducts sales by
public auction. The advantage is that these
services are all under one roof, so whether
its your home or your business, Metcalfs
have the ability and knowledge to sell your
property.
Auction
Auction is now becoming an increasingly
popular way to sell and also buy property,
and Metcalfs auctions attract a number of
investors from across the country. So if you
are feeling disheartened at the prospect of
selling your property, auction could be the
solution for you.
Director, Hamze Ballout says: In the cur-
rent climate we are finding that auctions are
the way to sell property.
Due to the credit crunch a lot of estate
agents are struggling but at Metcalfs were
as busy as always, attracting a lot of clients
who are ready and willing to buy at auction.
Despite the common misconception that
all auction properties are repossessions, the
entries for the next auction prove that this
just isnt true.
The majority of properties they get for auc-
tion are brought in through private sale with
the owners simply looking for a prompt,
secure way of selling. All properties are auc-
tionable from land to hotels, and cottages to
bungalows anything can be sold.
Their next auction is tomorrow, Friday,
March 20, at Savoy Hotel, Queens
Promenade, starting at 11am.
Entries are now being taken for the May
auction so dont miss the deadline, guarantee
your property a place and enter before April 3.
Residential

to be the way for you, how about trying
Metcalfs Estate Agency services for the sale
of your home.

the business you can be sure you will receive
the best service and local expertise in order
to find you the right buyer at the right price.

obligation.
The friendly staff at the Topping Street
office will be happy to provide you with

regular updates on how your property is
doing and any changes in market trends.
With a huge list of prospective buyers wait-
ing for all types of property across the Fylde,

erty, Metcalfs also carry much specialist
expertise in the sale of commercial property
and land.

leasehold, Metcalfs are pleased to carry out
an independent market appraisal of your
business or land, and secure you a sale with
some of the most competitive commission
rates on the market, at just one per cent.
By selling all types of property it means
they dont limit the type of investor they tar-
get, and in turn are approached by.
This is highly beneficial to sellers as their
property is exposed to a much larger pool of
potential buyers.

of your business, and market your property

AS THE weather begins to take a
turn for the better, NHBC, the UK's
leading warranty provider for new
homes, offers advice on how to give
your home a thorough spring clean.
Most people thing spring cleaning
just means bringing out the dusters
but to keep in tip-top shape your
home will need a little more mainte-
nance.
Neglecting small problems can
turn out to be costly so it's best to be
thorough.
Inside
HEATING SYSTEM - it is impor-
tant that all gas boilers are serviced
once a year so double check when
your boiler was last seen. Contact
your local gas company or a regis-
tered CORGI (Council of Registered
Gas Installers) installer to give it
the once over if needed.
CARPETS - make sure that car-
pets and rugs are secure, particular-
ly in areas of heavy use like door-
ways and stairs. If carpets are loose
or frayed think about replacing
them. On stairs you can help pre-
vent slips by installing stair rods.
DOORS - check that they move
smoothly. Gives hinges a drop of oil
if they have become a bit squeaky.
WOODWORK Check the wood-
work in your home - to keep it in
good condition it may nee a lick of
paint or a coat of varnish to keep it
ready for those summer showers
and thunderstorms.
TAPS - are they dripping? If the
answer is yes, you may need to
change the old washer for a new
one.
Outside
THE ROOF try to get a look at
your roof from the outside or go up
into the loft. Check to see if any
tiles are cracked or have slipped as
these will need to be replaced.
GUTTERING - moss, leaves and
other debris can accumulate in gut-
ters. Blockages can be bad news so
make sure that guttering is cleared
at least once a year.
OUTSIDE PAINTWORK should be
regularly repainted or restained to
preserve the wood.
New houses will first need
repainting after two years after
that homes need to be repainted or
stained at intervals of four to five
years, more often if you live by the
sea because salt and wind are dam-
aging to paint.
BOUNDARY FENCES fencing
can last for many years but its life
will be extended if a weather resist-
ant creosote treatment is applied
every few years.

IF you have to move but cant find
a buyer, becoming a landlord
might be the answer!
If you cant sell your home in the
current housing market there is an
alternative you could rent it out
instead.
Renting your property could give
you a financial lifeline by helping
to cover your mortgage and other
household costs until the market
recovers.
There are plenty of reasons why
people may be forced to put their
home on the market despite the
current property market slump.
These include workers relocating
jobs, families moving to a bigger
house or school catchment areas,
single people moving in with their
partner and elderly people going
into care.
But this new breed of landlord
has to plan carefully and do the
homework.
Choosing which agent to work
for you is the most important
decision you will make.
They will be responsible for
finding the right tenant, and mak-
ing sure the rent is paid along
with dealing with all the correct
paperwork and organising the
EPC.
Smart Move Letting Agents
ensure your property is in safe
hands, so you can relax knowing
that your property is being looked
after and that the correct tenant
will be found.
They really do take the stress
out of renting your property.
Since the end of last year it is
now compulsory to organise an
EPC (energy performance certifi-
cate) on your property.
Smart Move have a fully quali-
fied accredited assessor who is
covered with professional indem-
nity and public liability insurance
and are able to provide FREE EPCs
on all new instructions.
If you just want an EPC, they are
