The Property Buying Process

Buyer types

When selling your property be aware of the buyer types and motivations behind their decision making. First time buyers can be more than anxious to get onto the property market believing that should they delay, their one and only window of opportunity may pass them by.

Those looking for a buy-to-let are more open minded with regard to location, knowing every property has its rental value. Aiming to buy at a price which reflects the level of expected income, they are motivated by profit and what appeals to the largest market rather than home comforts and personal taste.

The established home buyer lies somewhere between the two. With a larger budget, a good deposit, and a clearer view on location many variants come into play.

The commonality throughout is of course the search for "value for money" and capital gain. Speculation on future property values will influence buying decisions and the timing of purchase is everything. Short term thinking on which mortgage to sign up to should not overpower proper financial planning.
