As the founder of Pendle Hill Properties, I’ve been helping homeowners in Burnley, Padiham, Longridge, and the Ribble Valley for over 17 years. One important lesson I’ve learned is that relying solely on property portals like Rightmove or Zoopla is no longer enough to guarantee a quick sale.
Pendle Hill Properties: Your Local, Family-Run Experts Providing Detailed Market Updates in Burnley, Padiham, Longridge, and the Ribble Valley
To truly maximise your property’s potential, you need an agent with access to an exclusive database of active, pre-qualified buyers.
Property Portals: Helpful, But Not Enough
While property portals are still useful for exposure, they don’t offer the personal touch or targeted approach your property needs. With so many listings, standing out is difficult, and buyers are often overwhelmed by the volume of options.
That’s why at Pendle Hill Properties, we tap into our database of active buyers already searching in Burnley, Padiham, Longridge, and the Ribble Valley. These buyers are motivated, ready to move, and pre-qualified, ensuring that your property is getting noticed by the right people.
The Stats Speak for Themselves
- House prices: The average UK house price reached £292,059 in October, up by 3.4% from last year (ONS). Though new seller asking prices fell by 1.7% in December, house prices are forecast to rise by 2.5% in 2025 (Zoopla).
- Transactions: There were 100,410 transactions in October, a 21% rise year-on-year (HMRC). Sales are up by 22% compared to last year’s quieter market (Rightmove).
- Demand: Mortgage approvals were up 42% compared to last year, with 68,303 approvals in October (Bank of England). Buyer demand is also up 13% from last year (Rightmove), and 12% more new buyer enquiries were reported in November (RICS).
Why This Matters
In today’s market, correctly priced homes are selling quickly, especially when they’re marketed effectively. With demand still strong, buyers are actively looking, and accurate pricing combined with targeted exposure can lead to a faster sale. But to ensure your property gets the attention it deserves, you need more than just a listing on the big portals.
