The two things a buyer really wants to know about a property...
Contrary to popular belief, buyers don't actually care how long a property has been on the market, says seasoned north London agent Marc Schneiderman...

Marc Schneiderman was 15 when he began as an office junior for a firm of estate agents in the West End. Some years later he joined a small boutique firm handling residential sales in London where he spent six successful years. In 1994, Marc founded Arlington Residential, wanting to specialise in sales and rentals at the middle to top end of the market in central and North West London. Arlington Residential has established a loyal following and excellent reputation across the local area as well as being a go-to for overseas buyers and those moving from other areas in London. Since its doors first opened, Arlington Residential has transacted on several billion pounds worth of prime property.
