That means January is a busy month for buyers, but you can make everything so much easier, and avoid all the rushing around, by harnessing the technology at your fingertips.
By doing a lot of the groundwork from the comfort of your own sofa, like virtual viewings of show homes, you’ll be in a great position to proceed when you visit your chosen development.
Start your research online
Once you’ve decided to move home, one of the first decisions to make is where to. Redrow’s website will help you identify all their developments in or near where you are by simply keying in a postcode or area name; you can even narrow down the choice selecting the type of home you’re looking for, as well as the number of bedrooms.
By clicking on your chosen development you can see an overview of the area, together with a more detailed map of the amenities, information and images for all the styles available there, and an interactive site plan.
You can even establish incentives being offered like Help to Sell and there are other helpful features like a mortgage calculator and a school checker so you can work out if it’s right for you before you arrange that all-important visit in person.
Take a virtual tour of a show home
This way please…just click on the different house types available at your chosen development to take a virtual 3D tour of each design.
You can wander from room to room, upstairs and down, to get a unique tour of your chosen design, and even zoom in to take a closer look. You can take as long as you wish and even go back to individual rooms for a second visit if you didn’t take it all in first time.
Virtual viewing enables you look over a house type and get a real feel for the style and layout, and assess whether it’s suitable for your needs. As the cameras turn around you can get an idea how big the rooms are - and whether your furniture would fit in - and decide how you would use them, for example whether a third bedroom could be a study or a home gym.
Make an appointment
You can book to arrange an appointment with a member of the sales team online by putting in your details and selecting the available time that’s suitable for you.
It can be in person or, if you prefer, you can arrange telephone call.
Visit a development
Armed with all your online research, when you do make an appointment to visit the site, you’ll know exactly what you’re looking for - from the house type you’re interested in, to the layout of the development, and be in a great position to proceed.
You can walk around the site, view the show homes in person, and have a ready list of any questions and queries you might have for the knowledgeable sales team.
