Spring - Make Your Move

We are incredibly grateful to our wonderful customers who take the time to leave a review and share their home-selling experience with us.

Thanks to ACM for our latest review, sharing their downsizing journey of moving their 89-year-old mother into a apartment.

We know part-exchange is not the right option for every homeowner, but for those and sellers who want to reduce stress, prioritise speed, and need a guaranteed completion, it can be the ideal solution.

Read the full review below:

"Having recently experienced the hassle and stress of trying to sell her house and losing the property she wanted, my mother took her house off the market and had resigned herself to having to stay in a property that was too large for her. She then looked into McCarthy Stone retirement properties and discovered the Spring part exchange scheme and is now happily settled in her flat. The first offer from Spring was too low to make the move viable, but she was advised to negotiate and a slightly better price was agreed. My mother could have held out for a higher price on the open market but she would still be trying to sell her house to date and would have the lost the flat she wanted. My mother was able to move in within weeks of having her offer accepted without the uncertainty of a chain. The fact that she was able to have access to her house after completion date meant that she could move into her new flat on a day and time that suited her and was able to make sure she had everything she needed before the house was cleared. Obviously she still had to go through the conveyancing and legal processes but Rebecca and Simon at Spring were always happy to help with any issues and questions I had and Simon ensured that the completion date worked for us and kept me informed on progress. Downsizing and moving was always going to be a stressful time for my 89 year old mother but Spring helped keep the stress to a minimum over a much shorter period of time.
My mother is so relaxed and happy in her new flat that we both agree that selling with Spring was the best decision and worth the money lost in comparison to the estate agents valuation."

With Spring's Co-CEO Samar Shaheryar reflecting on her recent time at (the UK’s Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum annual event in Leeds), one thing was clear: the ambition to see the UK real estate market thrive is there, but now the focus must be on delivery.

Across Leeds, conversations centred on planning reform, regeneration and unlocking investment. But one issue deserves more attention: how stamp duty is blocking the system – including for those who, like property traders, can help keep chains moving, unlock existing homes and support a more functional housing market.

Read Spring Co-CEO Samar Shaheryar’s reflections on the week, and why targeted SDLT reform should be part of the housing delivery debate.

Good to get out in the sunshine at our recent team volunteering session at Good Food Matters Charity. Thanks as always to the team on site for hosting us; Amanda, Angela and Ernesto - we look forward to seeing you again soon!

At our recent annual strategy day, on one of the team's favourite dates in the calendar, we spent the day reflecting, challenging ourselves, sharing ideas, and having some brilliant conversations about where we’re heading next. Tons of focus, lots of collaboration, and a good sprinkling of laughter along the way, topped off with karaoke and cocktails to end the day.

Pleased to share our latest team photo, a great addition to the Spring family album 😍

Discover our latest customer story from Sandra, who sold her home using Spring's Managed Sale service. With her daughter's help, Sandra secured her dream Regency Living bungalow, knowing her sale was being handled by Spring.

"I wanted to make the move as easy as possible, and as I was on my own, the idea of having Spring manage my sale for me was perfect,” explained Sandra. “I’d had a sale fall through already, so having Spring look after my sale this time round felt very reassuring."

Having a chain break down at any point in the sale of a property can be incredibly stressful for all involved, so it's great to hear how Spring's Chain Repair service stepped in to help one of our valued partners rescue their client's sale.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

A busy day in the kitchen for the team this week as we helped launch a brand new social kitchen initiative with our friends at Good Food Matters Charity

We are not chefs by any means, but we managed to cook up a delicious lunch of shepherdess pie, followed by an apple and berry crumble for pudding. It was lovely to have a chat with the lunch guests and be part of this new initiative, which will hopefully become a monthly event.

Thanks again to the Good Food Matters team for letting us be part of this project, and a huge shout-out to Angela for her patience and support in the kitchen 😊😊
