What property on the market right now, in your opinion, do you think is really good value? 8 Texas Road listed by Kyle James is of great value. It has loads of interior square footage, water views, it’s a great investment opportunity with a 2-bedroom apartment for income. A wonderful property for a growing family.

How do you see the Bermuda property market over the next 12 months? Based on the market today, and with our current shortage of hotel rooms, I foresee the rental market inventory declining and rental prices increasing.  Fortunately, sales are remaining strong and I’m sure will continue to do so. 

What are your top 3 tips for purchasers when looking for a potential new home?

1) Find a house with good bones and a solid structure.
2) Seek a property with options to expand or be reconfigured as the purchasers needs change.
3) Don’t overextend yourself, you still want to be able to live comfortably whilst paying your mortgage.

Finally – do you have any good tips for sellers when preparing their home for sale? Ensure that the home looks inviting - make the space as neutral as possible whereby the prospective purchaser could envision themselves living. Create a blank canvas (remove anything personal to the seller, i.e., ornaments, pictures, photographs etc).
