A Tetbury Success Story – High Street, Avening.
After being on the market for a year with another agent, the owners of this property came to us for a fresh approach and the right buyer was found from just one viewing.
The owners were ready for a move back to Bristol, where they wanted to be closer to friends. After a year on the market without achieving the result they hoped for, they decided it was time to try a different approach.
Having previously sold the property, our Tetbury team already knew the home and the local market well. We could see the changes the owners had made and knew how best to present the property to prospective buyers.
Our approach
- A fresh approach
- Local knowledge
- Targeted marketing
But rather than simply relaunching the property and waiting for enquiries, we got on the phone. We knew we had buyers looking for a home in Avening and were able to talk confidently about the property, the improvements that had been made and what made it special.
What our sellers said
Our house had been on the market for a year with another agent. We switched to Perry Bishop in Tetbury and within weeks we had an offer, which we accepted.
Somehow – with the help of Perry Bishop – we managed to move just over two months after the initial offer! Everyone at Perry Bishop was helpful, friendly and responsive whenever we needed to get hold of them.
The result
One viewing. One offer. One successful sale.
Our targeted approach found the right buyer from the very first viewing. From accepting the offer, the sellers completed their move just over two months later.
They were then able to purchase a new-build home in their dream area of Bristol and negotiate a great deal on their new home too.
Keeping the conversation going made the move happen
A Tetbury Success Story – Corston
After four months on the market and eight viewings the owners of this property were still waiting for the right result. With one interested buyer still considering the property, our team kept the conversation going and ultimately helped both sides agree a deal that worked for everyone.
Our approach
- Keeping in touch
- Fresh marketing
- Finding a way forward
We knew there was genuine interest in the property, so rather than simply waiting for something to happen we kept talking. Our team stayed in regular contact with both the sellers and the interested buyer, working to understand what each side needed to make the sale possible.
At the same time we continued to keep the marketing fresh, regularly reviewing the photography to ensure it continued to attract attention.
The result
One interested buyer. Plenty of conversation. The right result.
By keeping the lines of communication open and continuing to work with both parties, we were able to agree a sale that allowed our sellers to make the move they had been hoping for, a new build home nearby as well as a holiday home by the sea, giving them the freedom to travel and enjoy a more flexible lifestyle.
Better presentation. Greater exposure. The right result
A Cheltenham Success Story
With a baby on the way and plans to return home to Australia, the owners of this apartment needed to get their move underway. After two months on the market with little activity and no offers, they came to Perry Bishop for a fresh approach.
Our approach
- Professional presentation
- Greater exposure
- Experienced negotiation
We wanted to give the property a fresh start and make sure it was being seen at its best by as many potential buyers as possible. We arranged a new set of professional photographs to showcase the apartment and promoted it across all the property portals giving the property greater exposure.
The result
9 viewings. One offer negotiated upwards. A successful sale agreed.
An initial offer was received and through negotiation with the buyer, we were able to increase to an offer which our seller was happy to accept. The sale allowed our sellers to continue with the next chapter of their lives, returning to Australia with their growing family.
11 months on the market. A fresh approach
A Cheltenham Success Story
After almost a year on the market with two different agents, the owners of this property were still waiting for the right buyer. When they came to Perry Bishop, we took a fresh look at everything, from presentation and pricing to how and where the property was being marketed.
Our approach
- Presentation that matters
- Evidence based pricing
- A wider buyer network
We visited the property and provided clear, practical advice on how it could be better presented to buyers. Decluttering was an important part of the plan. We also carried out an evidence based valuation, using comparable properties that had recently sold to give the sellers a clear and realistic picture of the market.
The result
11 months with two agents. A fresh approach. 98% of the asking price achieved.
By combining the right presentation with professional photography, realistic pricing and proactive marketing to our wider buyer network, we were able to achieve 98% of the asking price. It demonstrates that when a property has been sitting on the market, the answer isn’t always simply another price reduction. Sometimes it’s about a fresh look at the whole marketing strategy.
A new agent. The right tenant. Complete peace of mind.
A Cirencester Lettings Success Story
Unhappy with the service received from the existing letting agent and after speaking with several local agents, Perry Bishop was chosen, not simply on price, but because of the people, experience and personal service behind our Managed lettings service.
Our approach
- We listened
- Local knowledge
- The right match
Finding a tenant wasn’t simply about filling the property as quickly as possible. We took the time to understand what our landlord was looking for and what had worked well previously. While welcoming interest from suitable applicants, our knowledge of our registered tenants enabled us to identify somebody we felt would be well suited to the property.
What our landlord said
We have found you and your team very helpful and you enabled things to go smoothly. You gave us the right amount of attention and we felt in safe hands.
We look forward to carrying on in the same manner.
What our tenants said
Dealing with Perry Bishop has not only made the process painless, it has also been a joy. The speed and care with which Cathy helped me is unlike any service I have received before.
From start to finish I felt truly valued as a customer and I am delighted with the speed I have been able to get into my new property.
The result
A landlord who feels in safe hands. A tenant who feels valued. A successful let.
For us, successful property management is about much more than finding a tenant. It’s about building relationships, communicating clearly and being there for both landlord and tenant throughout the tenancy.
