HMT Guide to Buying
Living in the Cotswolds
Living in the Cotswolds means being surrounded by outstanding natural beauty, thriving market towns, and a pace of life that balances energy with calm. Cheltenham, at the heart of the region, offers easy access to both countryside escapes and a lively town centre packed with shops, dining, and culture.
For homebuyers, it’s a location that offers variety and longevity. From Victorian terraces and Regency townhouses to modern family homes and country retreats, Cheltenham and the wider Cotswolds give you plenty of choice — with strong demand ensuring property here remains a sound investment as well as a lifestyle decision.
What you need to know
The vendor is simply the person selling the property. At HMT, we’ll handle all communication with them on your behalf to make the process smooth.
Yes, but it’s worth noting that sellers usually prefer buyers who have already sold or are chain-free. We’ll guide you on how to position your offer so it’s taken seriously.
Absolutely — offers don’t have to be at the full asking price. We’ll advise you on what’s realistic based on the property, current market conditions, and the seller’s circumstances.
You’ll need proof of identity, proof of funds, and if using a mortgage, an Agreement in Principle from your lender. This helps sellers feel confident in accepting your offer.
Yes, we work with trusted mortgage advisors who can help you secure an Agreement in Principle quickly, giving you a stronger position as a buyer.
While it isn’t a legal requirement, we strongly recommend it. A survey provides peace of mind and highlights any issues with the property before you commit fully.
