WELCOME to theSefton and WestLancs House Price
Special where you can dis-cover up-to-date news abouthome values in your area,based on actual propertysales.
This is the second HousePrice Special we havebrought to you and it’s beenan eventful three years sincethe last edition.
With the property marketbooming in 2007, few peoplecould have predicted the cata-strophic crash that was justaround the corner.
The credit crunch saw mil-lions of people across thecountry lose their jobs andtheir homes as they struggledto keep up with hefty mort-gage re-payments.
As the banks started to feelthe effects of years of gener-ous lending, they startedtightening their pursestrings and suddenly gettinga loan wasn’t so easy.
House prices plummetedand the market well and trulycrashed. But as we entered2010, green shoots of recovery
have started to appear andwe’re being told that propertyvalues are once again on therise.
So, if you’re curious aboutthe effect the credit crunchhas had on the value of yourhouse, or if you have alwayswondered how much homesare worth in other parts of thetown, now is your chance tofind out.
Within this comprehensiveguide you can discover howmuch houses are worth ineach road, based on up-to-date listings compiled bywww.hometrack.co.uk
From Crosby, Formby andHightown, to Ormskirk,Maghull and Skelmersdale,plus everywhere in between,we got the ultimate guide toSefton and West Lancashire.
We’ve even compiled the top10 most expensive streets ineach area, so read on and findout if your road has made thegrade.
If you are a first time buyerwe’ve also got some expertadvice to make sure you getthe best deal as you make thatall-important step onto thefirst rung of the property lad-
der. Maybe you’ve been think-ing of selling up but are con-fused over which estate agentto choose?
We’ve got some top tips tomake sure you find the rightperson, who is going to getthe best deal for you.
One of the biggest chal-lenges house buyers now faceis getting the mortgage theyneed. With the banks stilllicking their wounds from thecredit crunch, getting a loancan be tougher than ever, butit is not impossible and we’vegot some step-by-step advicethat will maximise yourchances.
Before you take a lookthrough the prices withinthis guide, there are somepoints to bear in mind.Firstly, the lists are based onactual property sales lodgedat the Land Registry.
You will find a number inbrackets at the end of everystreet’s evaluation. This isthe number of propertieswhich have been sold in thestreet as listed by the landregistry.
It can only be used as arough guide as to what the
average house in your streetis worth now. If there have notbeen many properties sold inthe street in the last fewyears, it’s likely that thevalue indicated is lower thanthe value today.
You may also find that somestreets in the list are marked“FVO”. This is where therehave not been any propertysales to give an average price.In addition, because of thechanging nature of the prop-erty market, no list can everbe 100% accurate and wemake no such claim for ours.
That said, we are confidentthat you will find this supple-ment a fascinating readwhether you are looking tomake that first leap onto theproperty ladder, up to thenext rung or just sittingpretty.
We hope that these pageswill convince you that whereyou live is one of the coun-try’s premier locations, andno matter what your house iscurrently worth, thanks tothe old adage “location, loca-tion, location”, your homewill always be pricelesshere.
What your homeis really worth ...

Why talking tough willhelp you find best agentSo you’ve heard all the reports that now
is the time to buy and you’ve decidedto take the plunge and sell up.
But with the number of estate agents outthere, how do you know which one is going todo the best job for you?
Once you’ve done some research, choosethree or four and start asking some toughquestions. Findaproperty.com have come upwith some issues that every good estate agentshould be able to explain:
1) Are they well established? Local know-ledge and experience are invaluable
2) Do they have experience selling propertieslike yours? What similar properties have theyrecently sold, how long did it take, and whatdid they sell for?
3) Do they have many buyers on their bookslooking for properties like yours?
4) How will they advertise your property?Ask to see examples of their adverts and seehow well they are presented - if you were abuyer would you be impressed?
5) Find out who in their company will handle
your sale and determine how experiencedthey are
6) How will they handle viewings? Will theygo with people to the viewings and are theywilling to work evenings and weekends?
7) Managing a property chain is important.Ask to see examples of recent deals and see ifthere are any problems that might crop up
8) Ask how they arrived at their valuationand get them to show you similar propertiesthat they have recently sold. Be wary of anagent who over-values a property
9) Find out how much their fees are, will theynegotiate and are there additional charges?
10) Ask to see the terms and conditions ofyour contract and find out how binding theagreement is – will it be easy to leave them ifthey are not delivering?
11) Trust your gut instinct. If you don’t feelcomfortable giving them your home to sell,find someone else

First time buyers – isit too good to be true?IF YOU’VE heard lately that now is the
time to buy a house, you’re not the onlyone.
In a desperate bid to re-boot the propertymarket estate agents, the government andhome builders have been frantically trying topersuade first time buyers that this is themoment to cash in and get on the ladder.
But is it all that simple? In a word, no.While this is the time to get a fantastic deal,
if you haven’t got the deposit to begin with, thebanks probably won’t even look at you. On theother hand, if you have got a 10% nest eggsquirrelled away then lucky you; it’s time totake the next step.
Matthew Hawksworth, senior valuer at An-thony James estate agents, who have an officein Crosby, said getting your deposit it crucial.He added: “It’s a buyers market at the moment,so if you are in that position then it’s ideal. Thefirst step is to work out where you want to liveand it’s best to look at a handful of propertiesto get an idea of what you want, then take itfrom there.” But the deposit isn’t the only
money you need to raise. There are manyextra costs including stamp duty, legal andremoval costs, survey and mortgage arrange-ment fees and buildings insurance.
Fortunately saving at the minute has its ownbenefits. People keeping their cash in the bankare being rewarded with some of the highestinterest rates in years, so speak to variousbanks to find the best deal for you and set up astanding order to transfer money into yoursavings account each month.
The next step is to speak to local estateagents and register at property portals such as4homes property search, Rightmove and Prop-erty Finder. Remember that you also need tothink about location. Just because you canafford a house, if it’s in a bad area you willstruggle to sell it in the future. However, if youinvest in an up and coming area, you will reapthe benefits in years to come, so do yourhomework before you make any decisions.

Top tips to get you thatall important cash loanWHETHER you’re thinking about
climbing the property ladder or tak-ing your first step onto it, you’re
going to need some money to help you onyour way – quite a lot actually.

Here are some top tips to make sure youstand the best possible chance of getting thedeal you need:● Do a credit check – this is one of the firstthings a lender will do, so beat them to it andcorrect any mistakes. One of the UK’s maincompanies is creditexpert.co.uk and they of-fer a 30 day free trial● Create a credit history – lenders want toknow that you can be trusted to make repay-ments, so take out a small loan and repay it ontime, every time, in full● Clear debts – Pay off as much as possible,especially missed re-payments, before apply-
ing for a loan● Cut old ties – other people’s credit historyeffects yours so close any joint accounts withformer partners● Get on the electoral roll – this proves tolenders that you live at your current addressand where your previous addresses were● Only borrow what you can afford to repay –mortgage lenders want bigger deposits thanever, so wait and save up if you need to.Interest rates could rise in the future● Speak to a broker – some offer free adviceon what you can borrow● Limit the amount of loan applications youmake – lenders who see that your credithistory is being checked frequently will getsuspicious and think that you are desperatefor money● Research – use online price comparisonsites to find the best lender for your needs ● Get the money you need Code NA
