The Property History

Stunning Victorian home, rich in original features and exquisite architectural details. With five large bedrooms, and expansive rooms, the property offered a unique opportunity to own a home a popular area of in Llanbadarn near the hospital and University. As soon as you entered the property its grandeur became apparent; you were met with tall ceilings, moulded ceiling cornices, feature archways, dado rails, and original Victorian pattern tile flooring!

What We Did

Before we meet any potential client, we take a close look into the current marketing. Between Rachel our sales negotiator and Rhian our marketing consultant, we already know everything that is possible to know about the property before putting it on the market. Rachel met the client at the property and spent the first 15 minutes walking around the home getting a true feel of the property.

Together we worked out a plan. We moved furniture, added fresh flowers, dressed each room and had the property touched up. The property was ready for brand new photography and a whole new marketing plan. The professional photo's came out beautifully, and it really showed off the Victorian features this home deserved!


The Result

It didn’t take long, just 18 days in total. We created a fabulous social media marketing campaign which also included one of our personal videos. We ensured this home has a mixed media marketing campaign which included the portals, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and a gorgeous display in our office windows. The home sold for £5,000 under asking price.

If you’re a homeowner , chances are you’ve wondered at some point: When is the right time to have my property valued? Whether you’re thinking about selling, re-mortgaging, or just curious about how much your home is worth, timing can make all the difference.

If you’re thinking about selling your home or buying a new one, one of the first questions that comes to mind is: how long does the moving process actually take? The answer can vary widely depending on your circumstances, but understanding the typical timeline will help you plan ahead, reduce stress, and know what to expect along the way.

Selling your home is a big decision, and sometimes life has a funny way of putting those plans on pause — but that doesn’t mean it’s too late to get things moving again.

Moving house is an exciting milestone — but it can also come with a fair share of hidden or unexpected costs. Whether you’re buying your first home, upsizing, or selling a long-term property, understanding the full financial picture helps you plan confidently and avoid last-minute surprises.
