Detatched Bungalow
The Details
A ‘complicated’ relationship breakup prompted the vendor to seek a quick solution
Listed for over £900k just a couple of years before, we conservatively valued this beautiful country-side bungalow at £650k
Some superb rapport building by Danielle resulted in an offer being accepted of just £420k
This is the ideal flip project and the property is now available to purchase at £675k and generating significant interest from both private and supported-living buyers
