Are you considering relocating to Staffordshire? You’re not alone. Staffordshire is attracting more and more buyers from further afield thanks to its balance of affordable property, beautiful surroundings and strong connections to the rest of the UK due to its central location.
At Follwells, we understand the unique concerns of out-of-area buyers. Whether you’re moving for work, family or simply for a change of pace, we’re here to make your move as smooth as possible. With over 30 years of local experience, we combine the insight of a local estate agent with the expertise of Chartered Surveyors, offering you guidance and reassurance at every stage.
Why Staffordshire is attracting more buyers
Staffordshire has become an appealing destination for people seeking good value properties and good quality of life. Here are just some of the reasons why:
- Location, location, location. Positioned in the heart of England, Staffordshire offers easy access to the M6 motorway and fast rail links to Manchester, Birmingham and London.
- Affordable homes. Compared to the neighbouring Cheshire area, Staffordshire offers a wide range of properties at more accessible prices.
- Lifestyle balance. From the historic market town of Newcastle-under-Lyme to rural villages like Madeley, Staffordshire offers the best of both worlds.
- Family-friendly living. With excellent schools, community activities and plenty of parks, it’s a natural choice for growing families.
- Perfect for retirees. A slower pace of life, welcoming communities and attractive downsizing opportunities make it popular for those looking to settle long-term.
It’s no wonder that Staffordshire is becoming a hotspot for people looking to put down roots somewhere new.
The challenges of relocating
Relocating isn’t without its challenges. We often hear the same concerns from buyers moving into the area:
- “How do I know which neighbourhoods will suit my lifestyle?”
- “What’s a fair price for a property in Newcastle-under-Lyme compared to surrounding villages?”
- “I can’t travel back and forth for every viewing – what are my options?”
- “I’m worried about managing the process from a distance.”
As a local estate agent in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, we can support you with all of these concerns for a smooth relocation.
How Follwells supports out-of-area buyers
Moving to a new area is about finding the right home in the right community and feeling confident throughout the process. Here’s how we help:
Local knowledge you can trust
With offices in Newcastle-under-Lyme and decades of experience in Staffordshire’s property market, we know every street in the local area. From the best commuter routes to the hidden gems for families or retirees, we give you insights that online searches simply can’t match.
Chartered Surveyor expertise
With in-house RICS Chartered Surveyors, we offer professional valuations and surveyors insight that most estate agents simply don’t offer.
