We are looking to recruit an ambitious Residential Property Sales & Marketing Agent to join our fantastic team in Attleborough — someone who’s pro-active, full of energy, loves learning, and isn’t afraid to pick up the phone, meet clients, and make things happen! If you think this maybe you, then get in touch...

The latest 0.25% interest rate cut may look modest on paper, saving the average variable mortgage holder around £31 a month, but its real influence runs deeper. Property markets are powered by confidence, and with mortgage rates easing and lenders competing again, sentiment is shifting. That change in mood is starting to matter.

Many would-be buyers hesitate, waiting for calmer times before taking the plunge. Yet history shows that waiting often costs more than acting. While renters lose money monthly, owners build equity and stability. The market rewards time, not timing—progress starts the moment you buy.

If your home has been sitting on the market with no progress, you’re not stuck. Switching estate agents is easier than you think, if you understand your contract and prepare properly. Here’s the truth, the timelines and the process to relaunch with impact.
