Getting away for the summer is a treat that many people look forward to all year round. A summer holiday is the ideal chance to relax and unwind, putting the stress and pressure of everyday life behind you. However, in order to fully switch off, it is essential that you are comfortable about what you leave behind. You want to make sure that you keep your property safe when you are away, and at Austin Property Services, we have some home security tips for you if you are going away this summer.
One thing you should bear in mind when you head off on summer holiday is minimising the amount of people that know your home is empty. Social media is a fantastic way to communicate with friends and family members but depending on your privacy settings, you may find that more people see your posts than you would like. Therefore, while airport bar pictures and poolside snaps may be great to make your friends jealous and let your family know you are having a brilliant time, they may act as an invitation to local burglars.

When it comes to finding the ideal estate agent to help you sell your home, there is no shortage of options. Every vendor has their own ideas about the support they require, and the ideal agent for one household may not be suitable for someone else. Therefore, you need to put some thought into finding the right agent for your needs but at Austin Property Services, we believe local agents offer advantages online agents cannot provide.
There has been a lot of talk about online agents in recent times, and the fact that these agents offer a low-cost service grabs attention. Selling your home can be expensive and it is understandable that many people are looking for ways to minimise their costs. This is a key reason in why online agents have become very popular of late, but it is important to remember that low cost doesn’t always equate to value for money. In fact, saving money in the short-term using a local agent may lead to you spending more money in the long-term.
