Thinking about buying in 2023? This should be your first step.

Thinking about buying in 2023? This should be your first step.

Whether you’ll be looking for your first home, downsizing, moving for school catchment areas or thinking about investing in 2023, your first step should be to register with us. We market our properties to buyers who sign up to our ‘Heads Up’ property alerts FIRST before they go on Rightmove.

Have you ever registered with an agent before? What was your experience like? We’ve heard that you can be asked a billion questions over the phone and then find out there’s nothing for you, or that you’ve signed up and then been sent houses that are out of your preferred area, don’t match what you asked for at all, or waaaaaay out of your price bracket.

At Giggs and McGrath, we think you should be notified about properties that match YOUR criteria, not ours, so we’ve invested in software that allows you to take control of your own property search.

You can register by clicking the image below, adding in the areas you want to live in, your property requirements and the amount you want to spend, and we’ll send you properties as soon as we have them that look like your dream home.

Get ahead of the crowds and get notified when your ideal home comes on the market. It’s quick and easy to do, it only takes minutes, and you have nothing to lose and your next move to gain!
