Moving back to Winchester from London

I recently moved back to Winchester after living in London for a number of years. I was aware that finding a family home in the Winchester area is not easy and, in the post lockdown era, it is even more challenging. I knew I needed a search agent to help right from the start. Kate was recommended to me by friends and I am delighted to recommend her myself. Kate readily understood my property needs and gave clear advice on the market.  Her knowledge of the area is huge. She was very good at suggesting properties and explaining their potential. She was very reliable, efficient and incredibly prompt when responding to me. She was a terrier at unearthing property possibilities with the local agents and following up on any leads. The majority of properties were shown to me before they were on the open market. She was great at finding solutions to any problems. I also had to find a rental pending my purchase (which was almost as tricky as finding a purchase) and Kate found an ideal house for me to rent. On a personal level, Kate was very kind and understanding of my circumstances. She was always positive, kept me motivated and reassured me that the right property was “out there” for me, which it was. Without Kate’s help I would not be living in my lovely home now.

Thank you, Kate.

Ageing Parents needing to downsize

Kate Rossi of Goosechase provided such an excellent service, my brother and I needed to find a bungalow for my ageing parents who could no longer drive, we both live a long way from the Winchester area and therefore really needed someone who could bring us a filtered shortlist.
All the terms and conditions were explained so we knew exactly where we were before the start of the search.
Kate did this and more, she was sensitive, sensible and discreet with my parents, I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Expat returning home

Having lived and worked abroad for many years, I was planning my move back to England and needed to find a suitable home for myself and my son prior to my return. This was almost impossible to do from a distance. I got in touch with Kate and Teresa who understood my needs and timescales and set about the search straight away. It only took one trip home to see a carefully chosen selection of houses in a variety of locations that would work with one of them being exactly what I was looking for. I can’t thank Goosechase enough for their efficiency, understanding, tenacity and warmth from the first phone call to the day I collected the keys for our new home.

In search of the perfect family home

We approached Goosechase after the property we were buying fell through. Unfortunately for us this was at an incredibly buoyant time in the market when it was hard just to get a viewing let alone have an offer accepted. We were looking for something just a little bit different to the standard housing stock in our area of choice and were becoming increasingly disillusioned.

The Goosechase team were fantastic, they were able to secure viewings using their contacts, sometimes before the property hit the market, and showed us areas we may not have considered before. Having found ‘The One’ they talked us through a stressful sealed bids process. Thankfully we were successful and completed the purchase soon after. We absolutely love our home and I’m sure that we wouldn’t be able to call it home had it not been for Goosechase. Thank you!
