February 2007 - Hamptons International, one of the UK’s premier international residential agents, and a subsidiary of Emaar Properties, has announced it is bringing the Country to London in a unique property open evening from 5pm – 8pm on Thursday 22nd March at Grosvenor Square, London.
The stylish event will showcase some of the finest Country properties currently on the market with Hamptons International and provide guests with the chance to obtain first-hand advice on successfully investing in the Country, where to buy and local area information from Hamptons regional property experts.
Guests will also have the opportunity to preview some of the very latest properties for sale, before they have been marketed to a wider audience.
The open evening will feature properties from regions including Surrey, Sussex, Thames and the West Country, and bring together a host of London buyers, property investors and tenants sourced from Hamptons International’s strong network of over 60 offices, including 19 London branches.
Ian Westerling, Regional Sales Director - Thames & Chilterns notes, “There has been a huge increase in sales activity over the last month and an astonishing number of chain free applicants are looking for property in the Country. For example, in the Thames region we’ve seen an increase of 90% in offers and 35% more viewings when compared to this time last year.”
“Following the huge city bonus payouts, a place in the country is on the wish list of many potential London buyers and this event brings the Country and London property markets together – providing sellers with the opportunity to speak directly to this captive audience,” Marc Goldberg, London Sales Director concludes.
