With economic storm clouds gathering on the horizon and whispers of a property downturn on everyone’s lips, you might not think this is the best time to buy, unless you really have to. Get the location right, however, and you should have nothing to worry about – certain areas in Britain are safe investments almost regardless of when or, in most cases, what you buy.

“Fundamentally, the security of the housing market comes down to various things – the health of the local economy, the local employment market and other factors, such as the amount of new building land available and lifestyle” says Jason Brand of Brand Vaughan. “If house prices were to fall in the UK, certain places like Brighton would fall less and be safer.”
 Jason adds “Because there is a limited supply of property, someone wanting to live in the city centre or close to the seafront will always pay a premium price,” We are boosted by the ease of the commute to London and Brighton also makes a good rental investment.

Sales Highlight Jason Brand adds ‘We have strong demand for Seafront apartments and family homes. We secured a sale this week on our most expensive property on our books within just 1 week of listing the property for sale. As long as properties are priced realistically buyers are continuing to buy in all price ranges’.
