Brocklesby Road was my very first sale under the & Co brand, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience to start this new chapter. The homeowner was an absolute gem to work with and became a friend through the process. And the buyer — a first-time buyer making the move from Fulham — was honestly one of the kindest, most genuine people I’ve had the pleasure of helping. It was a joy to bring the two together.

I had the privilege of working with three siblings to sell their late mother’s home in Cheam — and while the circumstances were naturally emotional, they were some of the kindest, most thoughtful clients I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.

Set within a quiet gated mews just moments from Streatham Common station, this ground floor apartment offered the perfect combination of privacy, practicality, and access to green space — all at a brilliant price point for SW16.

The layout made great use of its 440 sq ft, with a spacious reception room, a well-fitted kitchen, modern bathroom, and a double bedroom. Having its own front door and extra outdoor storage gave it a real sense of independence, while the communal garden and private parking added valuable convenience.

This two-bedroom flat on Northview Crescent has now officially sold and completed — and it did so using our Secure Sale auction service in partnership with Pattinson Auctions.

Set on the ground floor with its own private garden, the property offered a brilliant opportunity for buyers looking for a bit of space and scope to add value. The layout featured a bright reception room, separate kitchen, and two well-proportioned bedrooms — all just a short walk from Willesden Junction, with fantastic links into Central London.

Set in the heart of SW9, this apartment offered the ideal blend of space, style and location. The open-plan living and kitchen area was a real highlight, perfect for quiet evenings in or entertaining friends. Both bedrooms were generously sized, and the layout offered a practical flow that made day-to-day living effortless.

There’s some cautiously good news for buyers and homeowners this spring - several lenders are expected to reduce mortgage rates in the coming weeks following global economic uncertainty.

The shift is linked to changes in US trade policy, which have raised expectations that the Bank of England might lower interest rates more than originally forecast this year. While no one can say exactly how far rates will fall, it’s already influencing how lenders price their mortgage deals.

In the past year, more than 800 people have taken their first step onto the property ladder thanks to a low-deposit mortgage deal from Yorkshire Building Society.

Spring is usually the busiest season for the housing market. Lighter evenings, improving weather, and a fresh sense of momentum tend to bring buyers and sellers out in force.
