The
number of residential sales in and around the Capital during 2004 was down
by 3.8 per cent on the previous year. The average price achieved by its
solicitor members, however, rose by 10.7 per cent to stand at around £161,000
(2003 - £146,000) for the year as a whole.
Fourth quarter price data conformed to a pattern of reduced activity and
increased value, with sales volume down by 3.5 per cent and average prices
up by 5.4 per cent: rising to around £158,000 for the three months to 31
December 2004.
An average one-bedroom flat in Gorgie, for example, sold for £88,660,
compared with around £79,000 in the fourth quarter of 2003, a rise of
11.7 per cent. Likewise, the average price of two-bedroom flats in the
Marchmont and Bruntsfield areas increased by 6.1 per cent on 2003, with an
average selling price of around £199,000.
The growth was even more marked in the Capital's suburbs, with an average
four-bedroom detached house in these areas selling for circa £345,000,
which was 20 per cent more than during the fourth quarter of 2003.
Areas within reasonable commuting distance of the Capital witnessed the
highest percentage increases in property price inflation, with Falkirk
enjoying a 16.9 per cent increase and Stirling a 22.8 per cent increase on
the fourth quarter in 2003.

With the sudden surge in

your Buy-To-Let Investment stands out from the crowd.
One of the biggest problems being faced by most landlords today, is
finding reliable contractors to carry out refurbishment work.
We work for Landlords every day who constantly praise us for our
organisation & friendly service.
Before dealing with us, these Landlords were used to dealing with "so
called" All Trades Companies, who made a habit of letting them down.
These Companies either:
• Charged too much
• Took too long to start a Project
• Took too long to complete a Project
• Never finished a Project
• Carried out an overall poor job
• Or all of the above!
Here’s
a list of things we WILL & WON'T do:
We
WILL:
1. Make
the property lettable – we will bring the standard of the property up to
a sufficient standard so it lets – fast! See our spec.
2. Do everything – we offer a turn key service. You hand us the
key to start the work and we hand it back on or before the day of
completion with everything done. Plus the finish of our work will be so
good you will want to move in yourself!
3. Answer the phone – if you have any queries before, during or
after the job, either our Project Manager or one of our friendly staff
will only be too pleased to help.
We
WON’T:
1. Charge
you any more than the agreed price – the agreed price is the price you
pay. If however there is additional extra work that needs to be carried
out, in order for us to complete our refurbishment work, then you will be
notified immediately, and a price will be given at a reduced rate.
2. Finish later than the agreed date – the date we set for
completion is the date we finish.
3. Bother you every other day – Our team are experienced
professionals who understand customer service. The only time we will call
you after instruction is when we have finished the job.
