The property sales market remained buoyant during November with the volume of sales and listings continuing to run well above 2019 levels.  We achieved more sales than any other agent covering the Perthshire area, selling 31 properties in locations such as Perth, Scone, Luncarty, Almondbank, Bridge of Earn, St Madoes, Auchterarder and Crieff.  Flats accounted for just under half of sales, whilst the majority of house sales were for bungalows.  Demand remained high with 16% of sales going to closing dates and buyers willing to pay premium prices for the “perfect” property.  77% of sales achieved full asking price or above, generating an average profit over asking price of £7,292 per client. 

The lettings market was also busy with strong demand for good quality houses in desirable areas.  We secured tenants for 2 large houses in Scone within a week of hitting the market and these types of properties are achieving good rents.

It has been a hectic 18 months for the property market since the end of the first lockdown.  The net result as we approach the start of 2022 is a lack of available properties, yet ongoing strong buyer and tenant demand.  Typically, the market naturally slows in the lead up to Christmas, then rises sharply in the new year as households use the holiday period to make a decision around making a move.  Indeed, the property portals record a boom in the number of people searching for property online during Boxing Day. 

For those thinking about selling or renting a property in the new year, December is a great time to contact us for expert advice on how to prepare your property for listing at the start of 2022 and get ahead of the competition.

"Recommendation from neighbour.  Very good presentation of property and good customer service.  The initial sale fell through and the local agent was able to secure another offer within 24 hours.  Felt relieved after the sale went through.  Would recommend, good local knowledge."

 

Neil Sampson (Jan 2025) – “I regularly listen to “The Scottish Property Podcast” and was impressed with the interview that Alan Keddie and Katie Hall gave. I thought it was great and a personal touch to welcome the business owners, Alan and Katie to the property for the initial consultation. Such a surprise, compared with dealing with other estate agencies who would have delegated this task to an employee. This demonstrated that they truly care about their customers.”Neil Sampson (Jan 2025) – “I regularly listen to “The Scottish Property Podcast” and was impressed with the interview that Alan Keddie and Katie Hall gave.

"I regularly listen to “The Scottish Property Podcast” and was impressed with the interview that Alan Keddie and Katie Hall gave. Due to the fact that I moved away from Perth some years ago, this gave me confidence in dealing with an Estate Agent in the Perth area.

I thought it was great and a personal touch to welcome the business owners, Alan and Katie to the property for the initial consultation. Such a surprise, compared with dealing with other estate agencies who would have delegated this task to an employee. This demonstrated that they truly care about their customers.

The sale of the property was effectively carried out as an off-market deal, so very swift sale negating the requirement to advertise on the open market.

Excellent communication - every member of staff I dealt with prior to and during the selling process was polite, showed a genuine interest and was very professional.

Prior to the property even making it to open market, a referral of a potential buyer was put forward a few days after the initial consultation, which then led to a sale!

The overall experience took the stress away from what was an upsetting time due to the property being my late mother’s house.

Will definitely recommend and if investing in the area in the future, will be in touch."

"Chose PPP as I was impressed with Cara's approach when viewing a property being sold by Premier.

Marketing was professional and prompt.  Property well advertised, gaining maximum exposure.  First class communication, everyone I spoke to on the telephone or face to face was able to answer queries.  Professional, friendly, not pushy.  Relieved that someone else was taking the strain and I could trust them.

Most definitely recommend, takes away a lot of the stress involved in house selling and gives a buffer between buyer and seller, so you don't get drawn into personal involvement."
