Glow Donate to Foodbank
Thursday 7th December 2023
Mel Connelly, Director
We spent our Monday morning a bit different this week at our John Finnie St office 📍❤️ With our office being next to the Church we are always meeting people that work or volunteer there so we thought rather than do Christmas Facebook competition we would use the money wisely & ask the church what any families need this year to help make a difference, we got a list & got what we could 💪🛍️ We spent some time there this morning, it was really nice to see all the donations being greatly appreciated ❤️ We will definitely be supporting the great work that these guys do in the future 👏 It's true what they say though, Christmas really is all about giving…

Highlights of 2022
Tuesday 3rd January 2023
Mel Connelly, Area Manager
⭐️ 2022 Market Update ⭐️ It's safe to say 2022 was another amazing year for all estate agents across the board. The first 6 months of 2022 seen the property market continue to boom from 2021 into 2022, with astronomical prices achieved on a variety of properties throughout Ayrshire. I would say from Sept/Oct 2022 we noticed a slight change with number of property enquires, properties were still selling but this is when we seen some buyers began to pull the reigns with how much they were prepared to pay (quite understandably) with the uncertainty of other economical factors occurring during this period. We did see a slight increase in sales falling through, some buyers changed their mind through interest rates & cost…

Choosing the Correct Estate Agent to Sell your Property
Thursday 25th April 2019
Melanie, Branch Manager
Your property is probably the biggest asset you will own, so when it comes to Selling your property make sure you choose your Estate Agency Wisely. Below are some pointers to consider before you instruct an agent, 1. Ask for recommendations Ask friends, family members and colleagues who have recently moved which estate agents they used and what they thought of them. Also look in your local area at the "for sale" and "sold" signs; it's a useful indicator of the agents that work well in your area. You can check out our Glowing Reviews on our website: http://www.glowhomeslettingandsales.com/glowing-reviews 2. Check industry credentials Estate agents now have to be members of The Property Ombudsman or The Property Redress Scheme. Many estate agents will also be members of…
7 Reasons to use a Letting Agent......
Monday 15th April 2019
7 REASONS TO USE A LETTING AGENT.......... Why should you use a letting agent? 1. They will help you prepare your property for letting, as professionals, they will know the standards your property needs to meet and will help you put things right. Often an agent will be able to help you make those small changes that make all the difference. 2. They will help you meet your legal obligations. A properly trained letting agent will know all the legal requirements and will be able to advise you. Often they can take the burden of getting, say the Gas Certificate, Electrical Safety & the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). The authorities are getting stricter about these things, plus the new rules are coming into force with the…
