Cotswold Estate Agents: Professional Help During the Buying Process

Cotswold estate agents are obviously the best professionals to ask for expert assistance in matters of buying real estate property in England’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

These real estate professionals know the ins and outs of the Cotswold market in particular and the laws, rules and regulations concerning the market in general. In short, you are less likely to commit mistakes in buying your next property with real estate agents on your side.

How Much Can You Spend

The best Cotswolds estate agents work closely with their clients to establish a budget for the property. Said budget usually include all the incidental expenses (i.e., legal costs, taxes, and land registry fees) necessary to complete the transaction. We suggest setting aside 15% of your budget for the property itself for these incidental costs just to be realistic about it.

What Features You Want

Working on your budget, you can then choose from among a wide variety of real estate properties in terms of their features. Your main considerations may include:

• Age and history of the property
• Location in the Cotswolds
• Type of structure (house, manor, cottage, inn, pub and even a castle)
• Local amenities present in the nearby areas
• Number of bedrooms, toilets and bath, and space
• Type of façade and interior décor

The best Cotswolds estate agents typically have several options to choose from regardless of your choice in price and features. For example, you can purchase 17-century cottages in the Bourton-on-the-Water area for reasonable prices.

How Much You Are Willing to Offer

Keep in mind that what you are willing to shell out for the property may be lower or higher than what the property owner wants to offer in terms of price. We suggest letting your real estate agent handle the negotiation part of the process since it can be complicated although we do suggest also taking an active part. It is still your money so you should be prepared to protect it, so to speak.

Let’s assume that you and the seller have agreed on the price of the property. Your real estate agent will write a letter to confirm the agreement but it should be emphasized that said letter is not legally binding. Only when the contract is signed does the transaction become legal.

The process of selling and buying real property is, indeed, complicated. Let the Cotswolds estate agents help you now!
