Our Specialist Waterside department has been open since November 2015 and is located on a prominent position in Plymouth's historic Barbican.

Branc manager Phil Searle explains "The waterside property market in Plymouth and Surrounding Areas is extremely buoyant and there is continuing demand for good quality houses, flats and apartments on or near the water - whether coastal, river or estuary."

MARKETING TOOLS

Our exclusive membership of the WATERSIDE HOMES NETWORK, which has offices in the 14 Counties in the UK and overseas, ensures a high level of awareness of waterside properties in the Plymouth area among potential buyers.

As a member of the network, Lang Town & Country is represented at the prestigious LONDON and SOUTHAMPTON BOAT SHOWS providing an important showcase for Plymouth properties among the yachting and sailing community.

Another asset to our marketing is the MAYFAIR OFFICE with its LONDON office and strong connections with the national media.

OUR WEBSITE

Lang Town & Country have developed a mobile friendly site, we are always looking for ways to improve marketing our clients properties and have launched our latest update which offers an easy to use platform with the latest improvements in searching for a property based on street address, suburb, post code of even the a developments name. Visit www.langtownandcountry.com for more information.

KNOWLEDGE

Phil said that an in-depth knowledge of the waterside property market was essential to ensure that vendors achieved the best price for their property.

"Over the last 15 to 20 years we have seen a number of new developments in and around Sutton Harbour, while more recently the Millbay, Mount Wise and Royal William Yard have come on stream, stimulating further sales.

"A lot of people are downsizing and choosing apartments or a Period home for retirement, first time buy or and Plymouth certainly has plenty to offer to this market."

He said that the market for waterside rental property also remained strong and he was confident that the waterside office will provide a further boost to this side of the business for Lang Town & Country.

"Being right in the heart of the Barbican gives us the opportunity to provide landlords with an even stronger service than we currently offer. We certainly expect to see our portfolio of rental properties grow in the future."

Thinking of selling your property

paragraph

We have listed some helpful tips & what to look out for when trying to sell your home based upon the experience we have gained over the many years of working in the industry. Please take a look at the testimonial section to see what are clients say about us, after all there is no better form of advertising than a personal recommendation.
paragraph

YouTube Video Tours

The modern way of viewing properties is now in the form of a video tour. we were one of the first agents to promote our properties with video tours and have our own dedicated YouTube channel. To view all our properties 3 or 4 days before they are advertised on Rightmove or Zoopla subscribe to the channel and hit the notification icon, it's free and alerts you to what is coming to the market before the major property portals. We provide video tours free of charge to our clients as we see them as an essential way of marketing their property.
paragraph
Contract
At Lang Town & Country we offer a ZERO week contract that can be terminated at any time by giving us 14 days written notice.

There are many things to consider when choosing the right Estate Agent to market your property, but the MOST important factor should be the terms & conditions of their contract. Below are some tips form the consumer advice company "Which" that you should take the time to read. It's important to read estate agent contracts thoroughly. Pay particular attention to the following areas and, if necessary, seek to clarify the relevant clauses:

If you're not happy with the agent's service, how long does the contract tie you in for?

What happens if you're unhappy with the agent's service and want to complain?

You should be very clear about the arrangement you're entering into, so if you don't understand the contract, don't sign it. Legally, your estate agents contract must use clear terms. Your estate agent must pass on all offers promptly in writing, reveal any financial interest they have in offers made on your property, keep records for six years and be a member of one of the two Office of Fair Trading-approved redress schemes
paragraph

Fee

The first question and probably the most important one that people ask is "What are you fee's?" In the current economic climate you can understand that if you pay less for the same product somewhere else then you are probably going to use the cheaper option. When you choose your Estate Agent you are not buying a product you are paying for a service! You are entrusting the agent with potentially your biggest asset, when you break down the costs between Estate Agents you may save a couple of hundred pounds on the fee but a good Estate Agent will be able to negotiate you a better price for the property potentially gaining you thousands. We charge a percentage of the agreed sales price that we achieve for you. You should always work with an agent who charges a percentage of the sale price of the property because it is in their interest to get you the best possible price for your property because they will also earn more. When you are selling a property for such a large sum of money £500 or £1000 may not seem allot, but when the time comes to pay your solicitors, removal companies etc. that few hundred pounds extra will make all the difference
paragraph

Presentation is key

First impressions are important, so check your kerb appeal, tidy the garden front and back, paint window sills and the front door if needed .. Rooms inside should be kept tidy (even when you're not expecting a viewing. De-clutter - consider putting some of your stuff in storage, tidy and clean, neutralise animal smells, get someone to take the kids and pets out during viewings. Finish Any DIY Projects , but you don't have to spend a fortune. Paint - a lick of paint can transform a room and bring it up to date. Use the space - a double bedroom has more value than a single, and a single bedroom has more value than a study, so show the rooms off to their best advantage to maximise their appeal. House full of family photos? Tone it down - the viewers need to imagine themselves living there, not you. Clean, dust and tidy everywhere, open windows and, yes, put that pot of coffee on
paragraph

Viewings

With the years of experience that we have gained within the industry most purchasers tell us that they prefer it when the Estate Agent shows them the property, we feel that the first time someone looks at your property all they want to do is get a feel for it, let them, and let them do it with the agent. When they want to come back for another look it is a that point you should probably be there as they may have some questions to ask you

paragraph
As well as looking in estate agents windows, the internet is also an excellent research tool for finding properties. There are now many websites specifically geared for property searches. Most estate agents also have their own websites our web site is www.langtownandcountry.com . Here are some useful tips to keep in mind when looking for the house of your dreams:

View the properties as soon as possible. Leave it too long and you could lose out.

Make good use of your lunch hours or make appointments on the way to and from work.

If two of you are buying together, decide who will be the chief viewer, and weed out all but the strongest candidates.

Don't be afraid to make numerous visits with tradesmen to find out what you're letting yourself in for.

If you're tempted to buy a run-down property to renovate and sell on, check how long it's been on the market. If it's been there a long time, it suggests there isn't a lot of profit to be made.

New carpets, bathrooms and kitchens can be signs of a superficial renovation that is hiding more serious work to be done.

Visit the property at different times during the day and even at weekends to get a true picture of the area when everyone is home from work.

It's human nature to try to strike a deal, but if you find your ideal home and it seems to be priced correctly, consider offering the full asking price. This means you'll be taken seriously, there won't be any time-wasting and it will lessen the possibility of another party stepping. All offers should be made with the stipulation of taking the property off the market. Getting a 'Sold' board outside is a good way to dissuade others from looking. You might also want to ensure that all internet adverts for the property have been removed, to prevent any further interest. The best way to ensure a chain progresses smoothly is through to completion is good communication. Stay in regular contact with your conveyancer and estate agent to make sure everything possible is being done to speed things along. It can also help to stay flexible. Be prepared to move in with your family or rent as a short-term measure if it means you can keep the chain going.

Seller Testimonial

professionalism, dedication and persistence

Becky and Gareth helped sell my father's flat and I was so impressed by their professionalism, dedication and persistence. They are a great team and Gareth also did a wonderful job in helping us to source tradesmen to help redecorate the flat before we put it on the market. I would certainly use them again and recommend Lang Waterside to everyone.
Seller Testimonial

a real pleasure to deal with such a great team

I can't praise Gareth and the Team @ Lang Town & Country enough for their professionalism and efficiency when they sold my house recently. It has been a real pleasure to deal with such a great team during what can, at times, be a stressful event. This team have offered outstanding service throughout the process, they are very personable and approachable at all times and I can't recommend them enough to anyone looking to sell their property.
Seller Testimonial

Superb, professional service from start to finish

Superb, professional service from start to finish. Lang Town & Country delivered what they promised, sold our property quickly and kept us fully informed all the way through to completion. Lovely and friendly, helpful staff. Big thanks to Garreth and Becky. Absolutely nothing to fault. If only all Estate Agencies were like them. We would highly recommend them.
Seller Testimonial

quality of their work and their efficiency

We recently sold our 2 bedroom apartment with Lang Town and Country, after being so impressed by the excellent service that they provided a relative. From the start, they were diligent, professional and friendly, we were impressed with the quality of their work and their efficiency. As it turned out, our transaction was a drawn out one and we were often faced with issues that felt overwhelming at the time. They were always on the end of the phone to provide practical solutions and moral support, and if needed, someone would come out to us or meet us in person without hesitation. We would have found the whole process utterly bewildering without Lang. We would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone.
Seller Testimonial

realistic valuation

Gareth and his team have just sold our flat on the waterfront and it has been a pleasure to deal with all of them. Gareth gave us a realistic valuation of which they achieved 90%, compared to completely unrealistic valuations from other agents which would have led to us having to make several reductions. They conducted all the viewings which was a great help to us and when we got an offer, they monitored and chased progress, communicating with us right up to completion. They really earned their fee, which was very reasonable in any case.

appreciation for the professionalism

Hello Gareth I would like to record our appreciation for the professionalism that you and your team showed during our purchase of 44 Azure. From the first moment that we entered your office when we were made welcome through to the handing over of the keys we were provided with helpful information and an obvious willingness of you all to go the extra mile. Of particular assistance was the extensive knowledge that you imparted to us about the property, its history, the management organisation and your advice on tradesmen. Similarly, we have had timely and expert help from your rental team. The confident prediction of a suitable rent and the effective selection of a tenant are hallmarks of good service. The quick arrangement of the necessary certifications and the flexibility shown in dealing with a last minute problem with the deposit have been much appreciated. Cynthia and I are grateful to you all. Please pass on our thanks. Warm regards Jonathan
