Summer, Summer, Summertime!

Summer is around the corner and although some may choose to ‘sit back and unwind’ in the warmer weather a lot of us will be looking towards getting away on that long-awaited holiday. Whether you are hoping to jet away to a foreign destination or explore the U.K.’s enviable staycation spots, I hope that you enjoy the break that we all deserve.

Bringing back a sense of normality are the sporting events returning to our TVs over the next few months. The long-awaited Tokyo Olympics will take place after being postponed and the European Championship kicks off in less than a month! I for one see this as England’s best opportunity to bring a Trophy home since the ‘Golden Generation’ and am very excited to see fans back in stadiums cheering on the Three Lions.

Pubs and restaurants are open! Its been a long time coming but we can finally sit in our favourite venue and have a bite to eat with our loved ones. It has felt like forever since we have had the freedom to go where we like and see who we like, which has certainly caused a strain.

If the last few months have taught me anything, it is how important it is to look after your own mental health. I personally have enjoyed the tranquility of long walks in the countryside and have recently returned from a trip to Wales to climb my second of the ‘three peaks’ Mount Snowdon. I was not previously a keen rambler but working from home has given me the motivation to get out and see the world which we are usually too busy to take in!

One thing that is always worth taking in is the catalogue for our 16th June auction. We have a varied selection of investments, refurbishments and development opportunities. One that springs to mind is an impressive site in Boughton-under-Blean between the popular areas of Faversham and Canterbury. The land has been granted planning permission for a development of 16 units in an envious rural location guided £1 – 1.2million. Located with good travel routes through to London, Thanet and Dover the site is sure to generate good interest.

Weird, wonderful and quirky, the catalogue is full of properties for everyone and we look forward to seeing you at the viewings and helping you secure your next purchase. If you see something of interest in our June catalogue please get in touch with our happy and helpful team who are waiting to hear from you!
