    25th Feb 2010

    Sophia's goodbye present - Her first (and last) blog - Why we can guarantee 6 weeks to let a property at YPC

    25th Feb 2010

    Hello,

    Since I started at YPC I have been helping look after the lettings and as this is my last week at YPC I thought I would leave with a few words of wisdom on this topic. Now YPC guarantees to get your property let within six weeks*. So how are we so confident that we can achieve this?

    New Build Off Plan Property is the best property strategy for 2010 through to 2016.

    24th Jan 2010

    Hey guys,

    New Build Off Plan Property is now a strategy whose time has come. For the past 3 years it has carried too much risk in most circumstances and therefore it was to be avoided. The main reason that this off plan property strategy was to be avoided was that since 2006 through the middle of 2009 it was to be avoided due to overpricing and the risk of a downturn.

    YPC Group pulled out of selling New Build Off Plan Property in 2006 for this very reason, even though many companies continued to sell off plan property which simply meant that many clients were at risk if the market dropped...
