February 11, 2016
The Personal Property Shop, estate agents in Bishop’s Stortford, are hosting a unique opportunity for local homeowners on Thursday 10th March 2016. After the success of their 2015 event, the vibrant team at The Personal Property Shop are planning on making this year’s advice evening bigger and better! With a fantastic line up of guest speakers, fundraising for St Clare Hospice and food and drink, they’re hoping to attract 100+ attendees from Bishop’s Stortford and the surrounding areas.
The event is ideal for local homeowners who are planning on moving in 2016 or those that are on the market currently and perhaps struggling to sell their property. Arrival is from 6:30pm when food and drink will be served and the guest speakers will begin at 7pm. Tickets are free of charge for local home owners and they can register via The Personal Property Shop’s website – www.personalpropertyshop.co.uk/upcoming-events.
The line up of property experts speaking at the event includes:
- Amanda Green – Property by Design – Amanda is an interior designer and professional ‘home stager’. She helps home owners to present their properties in the best possible way to achieve the best price, in the shortest time frame. Professionally trained, she knows exactly what makes a property sell and has helped The Personal Property Shop to sell even the trickiest property by enhancing it’s presentation. She’ll be sharing advice on the best way to present your home when you sell it.
- Christopher Stewart – Rightmove – account manager Chris will be teaching home owners what to look for in their current Rightmove listings and how estate agents can create ‘the ultimate listing’. He’ll also be sharing advice on ‘self-valuing’ and using the Rightmove tools to get an idea of what their property is worth before they plan on selling.
- David Horder – Lensflair Photography – David is The Personal Property Shop’s professional property photographer and he’ll be sharing the importance of professional photographs in 2016.

- Sarah Watson – Watson Legal – we all know that the legal process can be one of the must frustrating aspects to selling a property. Local solicitor Sarah will be sharing top tips on how home owners can help to speed up the conveyancing process and advice on how to choose the right solicitor when moving home.
- Joe Zammit – Insight Private Finance – the sponsors for the evening are Insight, a local firm of mortgage brokers based in Harlow. They’ll share advice on securing a mortgage, how to get the best possible rates and the best way to shop around when remortgaging. He’ll also bust some ‘mortgage myths’ after many changes with the mortgage industry over the last few years.
- Angela Westgarth – The Personal Property Shop – business owner Angela will be providing a round up of the Bishop’s Stortford property market as well as answering some FAQs when it comes to selling a property. From the question ‘should I use more than one estate agent to market my home?’ to ‘do I need a for sale sign outside my property?’ she’ll answer the most common vendor questions.
On the night the team will also be raising money for their local hospice, St Clare Hospice, by holding a raffle and a ‘guess the value of the house’ competition.
