With property prices up 10% in the last year, interest rates on the rise, the cost-of-living biting, and lenders tightening their criteria, first time buyers have rarely faced such difficulties in getting on the housing ladder.

A quick look at Attleborough’s property market, where this time, I'm focusing on the £/sq.ft of all property that was 'for sale' in July—a key indicator of how the market is moving. More than just a number, it reflects the mix of homes for sale and the story behind local property values.

If your letting agent isn’t delivering, you don’t have to stay stuck. Switching agents is easier than many landlords realise and could protect your investment long-term. Here’s how the process works, and why September is the perfect time to act.

Positioned on Blackthorn Road in Attleborough, this superbly presented 4-bedroom detached family home offers versatile living in a modern L-shape design. Stylish, spacious, and filled with natural light, it enjoys a private garden with seating area, garage, and ample parking, making it the perfect blend of comfort and convenience.

Choosing the wrong estate agent doesn’t just cost you money — it can cost you your move. Overpromising and underdelivering leads to silence, missed opportunities, and your dream home slipping away. Don’t fall for flattery. Choose honesty, strategy, and experience — because the wrong agent can ruin everything.
