The BBC boom Property in Salford is hot property; if you’ve got a house nearby then I wouldn’t recommend selling it any time soon. With BBC’s media city is set to hit Salford at some point in 2012 there will be an influx of London media types hitting the shores of Salford, all clambering for a slice of the Northern landscape. Not only that, but the moment those savy workers hit the streets of Manchester there will be a wave of people catering to those tastes. Restaurants, bars, pubs, clubs, food outlets, shops and stores will all become increasingly hot slices of the northern social scene, so if you are lucky enough to live in those areas take our advice and start thinking long term.

If you’re thinking about selling your property in Salford set aside time to think over the ups and downs of the housing market, would it be better to wait and see what the property market is going to do? In a few years time when the housing market recovers, your property could be worth significantly more than it currently is.

A good think to do is make sure you’re aware of how much your house is currently worth, so look up a Manchester estate agent and get your house valued. Granted they may not have the best reputation but its important you have a good understanding of what your house is worth. Where you can, always get a second opinion on your homes value.

It’s not just Salford property that is set to increase in value, the surrounding areas could also see a boost in sales too. Property in Old Trafford is probably worth holding on to, as is property in Swinton, Irlam and Eccles so if you are looking to sell, don’t rush into anything just ye
