A Spotlight on a Successful Milton Keynes Property Sale
One great example of how we’ve been looking after our customers was the recent sale of a property in Milton Keynes. The owners of the property had been renting their property through Northwood, on our unique Guaranteed Rent Scheme, for around 8 years, before deciding to use our services to sell the property.
The property generated immediate interest, so the Northwood team decided that an ‘open day’ would be the most effective way to market the property, allowing maximum potential buyers to view, with limited interruption for the tenant. Such was the interest generated, Northwood was even able to achieve a sale of in excess of the asking price; consequently, the vendors were delighted.
A Toast to Northwood’s Exceptional Service in 2016 Q1
Not only was a buyer found promptly, Northwood managed to find a buyer who was looking to purchase a property for investment purposes, meaning they were happy to take the property on with tenants in situ. This meant that the owners benefitted from a continuous income right up until the date of completion and the whole process, from offer to completion, took only 6 weeks!
The vendors were so pleased with our service that they arranged to have a case of wine delivered to the Northwood team on the day of completion, which happened to be the last day of the first quarter. What a fantastic end to a record breaking first quarter of 2016 and such a nice surprise. Its occasions such as these which make owning a business so rewarding.
Well done everyone!
