The most important aspect of this service is for us to fully understand your needs
and to develop a close working relationship with you, resulting in a successful
property acquisition.

Locating and ultimately securing a property in the location that best suits you is a skill
which comes only from detailed up-to-date local knowledge and experience of the
Cambridge property market.

Over the years we have established a close working relationship with local estate agents
who appreciate that a retained client of ours is a serious purchaser. Therefore, we are
frequently made aware of suitable properties before they are released onto the open
market. Also, through local networking we have contact with developers and vendors
who prefer to sell their properties privately.


Step by Step Guide to the Service

Following our initial consultation we will proceed as follows:

Property Search
Relocate Cambridge will undertake a comprehensive property search on your behalf. We will view any potentially appropriate properties and make a short list of those we feel may of be interest to you. Where necessary, and with the permission of the vendor, we will take digital photographs and email these to you.

Accompanied ViewingS
Relocate Cambridge will arrange and accompany you to view any properties from our shortlist. We can collect you from railway station, hotel or office in the Cambridge area. At this stage we are happy to offer our advice on value – giving examples of comparable houses if possible, suitability of location and an idea of potential refurbishment costs.

If you feel we have found your ideal property we still strongly recommend a second viewing before making a final decision. On this occasion if you need any advice from builders or architects we can arrange for them to meet with us at the house.

Recommending Schools
We are able to recommend and provide information on a range of schools in both the private and state sectors and give advice on availability of places. If pre-arranged we are able to organise appointments on your behalf. Likewise, if necessary we can put you in touch with Educational Consultants.

Negotiation
Relocate Cambridge are pleased to negotiate on your behalf to secure the property at the best possible terms. We will keep you fully informed at all times on how the negotiations are progressing until such time as a sale is agreed. At this point, if required, we can recommend professional services such as solicitors, surveyors, architects…During the period between exchange of contracts we will liaise with both solicitors and agents continuously to ensure a successful purchase.

Information Pack
Prior to your move we will provide you with a pack containing comprehensive details about local facilities in the area of Cambridge where you will be living.

Support
You may require other services such as removal firms, interior designers, architects, builders etc. We are happy to make recommendations of these to you.
