Browsing a recent Hello Magazine, I was fascinated to see an article featuring Tara Newley (daughter of Joan Collins) who shared her experience of finding her prize country home in Somerset. Tara recalled: "I got as far as the landing before I said, 'I want this house'. It's been an absolute love affair ever since."
This avows a continued pattern that house buyers want to completely fall in love with the home they're purchasing and the lifestyle that it offers, to be willing to take a leap and invest a significant sum of money.
