The current 55+ Personal Search

Services

At 55+ Retirement we can do more than help you browse some of the finest retirement property in England and Wales. We can act for you, the buyer, and offer a highly professional and completely personal search service.

With our comprehensive knowledge of the market place and unique contacts we are continually informed about interesting new developments and properties before they come to the market; as well as those that never come to the market place at all. We are able to advise on the current market value of properties as well as price differentials between counties. We report on the benefits and disadvantages of each property you consider and when you wish to buy we negotiate the best terms and conditions for you.

Acquistion & Rental

When you instruct 55+ Retirement to find you a property we provide specialist help over and above the assistance given in personal search databases. We are able to provide immediate advice, inside knowledge to properties pre market, negotiate best terms through our knowledge of changing market conditions, and manage all the myriad professionals to secure a satisfactory purchase. In what is often one of the most important decisions of your life we can help manage the process to a successful outcome be it your primary residence, a second home, a property abroad, or a snug retreat in town or country.

Inspection & Consultancy

If you have seen a property that you would like to buy and seek a second opinion as to value and position we can inspect and report. Good property advice is essential whether you have one property, a portfolio, or a development to manage.
