PURE Property, the region’s premier property acquisition service, says the annual race amongst home seekers to buy in top school catchment areas for the new academic year has started early this year.
Managing director, Jonathan Hopper, speaking from Pure Property’s head office in Norwich, said that each year the rush to settle into the best school catchment areas starts earlier.
“Relocation is often the only way to ensure children have access to the top performing schools, particularly as competition for those places becomes greater,” he said. “Often access to those schools for children outside of the catchment area is very restricted nowadays. It may seem like a dramatic step, but for parents seeking to better the life and educational chances of their offspring, it can be a very sound investment.”
Pure Property, winner of the Daily Mail’s Best Property Finder Award for Norfolk and Cambridge, works solely on behalf of homebuyers to secure property based on each client’s lifestyle, living requirements and budget. Clients benefit from the company’s in-depth knowledge of the region’s areas, access to a vast property pool and skill and experience to negotiate on price. For individuals or for families relocating to a new area, this service removes the usual pressures and fears of the buying process, as well as saving time and effort on fruitless searches.
“Parents are coming to us with catchment area at the top of their brief,” said Jonathan. “Our service offers them peace of mind, ensuring that they have the right information before making a decision. We do not take a blanket approach with our clients. Everyone has different needs and levels of knowledge about areas in the region – we respond to that and the feedback has been fantastic.
One client moving into catchment of a top performing school in the area, described Pure Property as “going beyond expectations”.
“We had complete confidence in the Property Consultant’s understanding of our needs. We couldn’t have achieved the move we got without them and our children are very happy in their new school. The service meant we didn’t have to compromise on anything; Pure Property ticked all the boxes and we got exactly what we wanted”.
Jonathan urges parents to make an early start on relocation plans. “The earlier you begin, the more opportunity to find the right property. That way you don’t end up making a wrong move just to meet the deadline for school applications”.
