Could this help you move?
The seller of 31 Garnier Drive is very keen to help the right buyer make their move to Bishopstoke Park. If you have a property to sell, they may be willing to consider buying your home, as part of the sale. This could remove some of the usual delays and uncertainty involved in selling before you buy, helping you move more quickly and with greater confidence.
This is not a formal part-exchange scheme, and any arrangement would be subject to individual agreement, valuation and legal advice, but it could be a very helpful option for anyone who would love to move to Bishopstoke Park but still has a property to sell.
