A buying agent's view: On holding positions, spring optimism & a market in search of stability
Jamie Freeman discusses fragile confidence, lifestyle-led demand and why off-market deals are on the rise.
Jamie Freeman began as a selling agent with a leading national firm specialising in the sale of Country Houses and Estates throughout the South East and then Scotland. After this he spent four years in the buying department acquiring country property across the south of England. Jamie gained a wealth of knowledge, experience and contacts whilst with this firm. This together with the independence offered by Haringtons, as well as having lived in Hampshire all his life, means he is perfectly placed to give the best possible advice to clients.
