Stephen Woodward of Woodward Chartered Surveyors Harrow on the Hill considers the property market in the aftermath of the 2015 general election and the new government’s approach to housing – or not!
The Queen has never had to be too concerned about her own housing. Of course Buckingham Palace was bombed during the war and there was that dreadful fire at Windsor Castle in 1992 – her annus horribilis. But with Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Holyrood House, Hillsborough Castle, Sandringham House, Balmoral Castle and Craigowan Lodge to choose from there is no shortage of royal accommodation. So housing concerns must be left to the Queen’s subjects. read more .....

Oddly, those landlords who are non UK resident have not had to pay Capital Gains Tax (CGT) when selling their UK investment property. The government have however confirmed that this perk, or perhaps oversight, is to be abolished from April 2015.

This year Woodward Estate Agents and Woodward Chartered Surveyors are raising money for Children with Cancer UK and we're inviting you to get involved!
It's great for your and your business' profile, and we will be telling the world about your progress and success. We are also planning a special Award Ceremony later in the year for all those who took part.
Our Chartered Surveyors often see houses where only part of a chimney has been removed, often just the ground floor or ground and first floor, remaining only in the loft.
Homeowners rarely go to the cost of scaffold to remove the chimney above the roof, or may not be able to if it is shared with a neighbour. So if you are only part removing a chimney, what do you need to be wary of?
Stephen Woodward of Woodward Chartered Surveyors Harrow on the Hill office hits the ground running in 2015 and looks forward to an active property market throughout the year ahead – only punctuated by one rather important event in May.
In housing market terms 2015 could be a contradictory year. In some ways the market ....more....
