Halstead Property Prices
Like much of mid-Essex, the pandemic really drove up demand for houses in Essex. Property prices in Halstead increased as many people sought to leave London and other more built-up areas. Much of this movement was in search of a more peaceful life in villages with easy access to Colchester, Chelmsford and the capital. With changes to working patterns and more people willing to take a hybrid approach with only a couple of days requiring a commute, Halstead is well-placed to provide everything that larger numbers of buyers are looking for.

“I recently sold my house through Martin Webb. It was the best experience I have ever had buying or selling a house – they managed everything, including a slight hiccup with a survey! They were professional, honest and communicated so well with everyone. We got the price we wanted, and they made it all so much easier and less stressful than I have ever experienced. I got weekly updates, never had to chase for information and they showed me why estate agents can be so valuable.”
