It Must Be Love
February 3, 2025
As we approach St Valentine’s Day we look at the similarities between selecting a partner and choosing a home.
In February our thoughts turn to romance and we might ask ourselves: is it possible to fall in love with a home?
When looking for a partner it’s true that some people are attracted by an intended’s looks, social status, bright future, and bank balance. But many people are attracted more by an indefinable spark and connection.
It’s just the same with property. There are those calculating the UK residential property market’s resilience in a time of uncertainty. They monitor the Bank of England’s policies concerning lowering interest rates, government housing initiatives, changing societal norms, sustainability and overall consumer confidence. But where’s the romance in that?
One should undoubtedly do one’s homework and check out the cupboards for skeletons, but often finding the right home is not so much based on a financial transaction but more on dreams, aspirations and an immediate deep sense of belonging. From the moment you enter the right house or flat for the first time, it is like coming home. An emotional connection is forged. The space suits your mood or is adaptable to your many moods; it reflects who you are and gives you comfort by supporting and protecting you.
So one doesn’t have to be the most romantically inclined person to understand that the answer to the question, “Is it possible to fall in love with a home?” is a resounding yes.
Now, let us help you find your perfect match, because in property at least we understand how love works.
