Have you ever wondered how much every square foot of your home is actually worth? 🏠

Think of it like buying fruit at the shop; it is the price for the actual amount of space you get.

Right now, sellers in the area are asking for an average of £415 for every square foot of floor space.

Semi-detached houses are currently the most expensive per foot, followed closely by detached homes.

If you live in a flat or a terraced house, the price per foot is usually a bit lower.

Knowing these numbers helps you understand if a house is priced fairly compared to its size.

If you want to know the square footage of your property, send us a message and we can help.

Have you ever wondered how we measure the health of the local property market? 🏠

We look at 'months of inventory', which shows how long it would take to sell all current homes for sale.

In SS16, we currently have 6.7 months of supply available across 217 active listings.

Since this figure is now over 6 months, the market has shifted from favoring sellers to a more balanced state.

Supply is loosening slightly, with inventory up by 0.4 months compared to last month.

With a 15% monthly turnover, there are still plenty of buyers moving, but they have more choice than before.

If you are planning a move in Basildon or Langdon Hills, get in touch for expert advice.

The local property market is feeling much more relaxed this June, like a see-saw finally finding its balance ⚖️

With 217 homes to choose from, buyers are taking an extra weekend to think things over before making an offer.

It is officially a 'Buyer’s Market' now, meaning there is more room to haggle on the price of your next move 🤝

Sellers shouldn't worry though, as 32 homes are still being snapped up every month by keen local families.

If you want to sell, your house needs to be the best on the block to stand out from the crowd 🏡

Whether you are in Langdon Hills or near the town centre, we can help you navigate these changing times.

If you’re building a business, this is a book I’d genuinely recommend:
£100M Money Models — Alex Hormozi
This book tells you exactly how to create offers that people actually want to buy; how to price them; and how to communicate the value clearly.
Big takeaway for me: most businesses don’t need more ideas; they need a clearer offer and a simpler way to explain it.
If you’ve read it already, I’d love to know your biggest takeaway. If you haven’t, add it to your list and let me know what you think.

What’s your biggest frustration with estate agents? 🏡
It’s a question I ask a lot — and the answer that comes up time and time again is communication.
In fact, a recent study found 23% of people said poor communication was their biggest frustration when dealing with estate agents.
That’s exactly why I do things differently.
When you work with me, you get:
- Communication prioritised from day one.
- A business that deliberately limits active clients to 8 at any one time — so you get the attention you deserve.
- A promise that I won’t go silent when hurdles come up (because they do, in almost every move).
- A proactive approach: I get ahead of issues, explain what’s happening in plain English, and bring options/solutions — not just problems.

If you’re local and want property advice and regular Langdon Hills market updates, follow my page — I share what’s happening in the market and what actually helps homes sell.

Have you ever wondered if you picked the right roof over your head seven years ago? 🏠

Our latest look at the local market shows that detached houses in the area have earned their owners nearly £550 every single month just for living there!

While big family homes are reaching values of over £588,000, smaller homes like flats and semis are currently offering great value for money for savvy buyers 📉

It seems families looking for their 'forever home' are still out in force, even while the Bank of England's borrowing fees make things a bit trickier for first-time explorers.

If you own a detached house, you are sitting on the local gold standard, but there are also clever ways to make smaller homes stand out to picky buyers ✨

Whether you are cheering at your home's growth or waiting for the market to find its feet, knowing your numbers is the first step.

Langdon Hills market update (latest numbers) 🏡📊
I’ve recorded a quick video running through the key stats shaping the Langdon Hills market right now — and the headline is we’re still in a buyer’s market.
Two numbers that really stand out:
Homes are taking 158% longer to sell
There are 6% more homes for sale than this time last year

What that means: buyers have more choice and more time, so pricing and presentation matter more than ever. If you’re thinking of selling, the best results tend to come from pricing correctly from day one and backing it with strong marketing.

Watch the video for the full breakdown.

Property myth: “You can’t sell a house in a slow market.” 🏡❌
Reality: you can sell in any market — and at any time of year.

What changes in a slower market is how you get the result.
The homes that still sell (and sell well) usually have two things nailed from day one:
Correct pricing for the current market (not last year’s market)
Proper marketing that goes beyond “list it and wait” — using the right channels and presentation to maximise the number of serious buyers who see it

If you’re thinking about selling and want an honest view on what your home would achieve right now — and how to give it the best chance of selling — message me.

The local property market in SS16 6 is currently going through a bit of a tug-of-war 🏡

While asking prices have taken a slight dip, the actual money changing hands has actually gone up by over £4,000 this month.

We are seeing a gap of about 11.9% between what sellers want and what buyers are happy to pay ⚖️

It is like a game of see-saw where everyone is trying to find the right balance to get a deal done.

With 112 successful moves in our area over the last year, it is clear that people still love living here! 🌳

The secret to a successful sale right now is pricing your home sensibly from the very first day.

If you want to know what your home is really worth in today’s market, we would love to help you find out! 💬
