The average number of transactions per surveyor (over the last three months) is now at 12.7, according to the RICS survey published last week; the lowest figure since the survey began.
However, help is at hand for the housing market, with the launch of HomeSwapper4Sale.co.uk.
A UK first for the private market, HomeSwapper4Sale.co.uk is a service that matches people looking to sell their homes, with those who want what they have to offer and vice-versa. Launched in August 2008 the website already has millions of pounds of property registered and matches for members are sent out daily.
A core benefit of swapping is that there are only two parties in the exchange, so it’s possible to avoid lengthy chains, which are all the more treacherous in today’s uncertain market.
The speed of the transaction is increased and the sale of the two swapped houses, stands a greater chance of reaching completion; what’s more, it can potentially save money for both parties.
HomeSwapper4Sale.co.uk covers all house types, values and locations; users can find matches to trade up, trade down, swap like for like, move down the street or across the country – it’s that flexible.
Plus, HomeSwapper4Sale.co.uk finds the matches automatically and alerts each member by email or text message, to make sure they don’t miss the opportunity of finding their next home.
