Martin Walshe and Richard Freshwater, Directors at Cheffins Residential are looking forward to the successes that Spring will bring to seller and buyers alike...

"At Cheffins, we love the Spring as one of the busiest times in the residential year. This Spring we plan to build on the results of 2014, and what a year that was for this region! Cambridge house prices rose by 20% in certain prime city centre streets; the 'necklace' towns, including St Ives and Ely, saw rises of between 10% and 15% and even villages further out felt the warm glow of rising prices. 2014 was Cheffins' most successful year ever, so we are looking forward to a challenge as we try to beat those results this year. The early signs are that 2015 will be a brilliant time to sell your home, with interest rates on hold and the regional economy on top form, so please feel free to give us a call on 01223 214214 to discuss your plans."
