Hyperfast broadband is the new "access to local transport links"
Updated: Jul 7, 2021
According to Sam Ashdown from AshdownJones, with the growing propensity to work from home, excellent connectivity and broadband are the new ‘off street parking’ and ‘access to local transport links’ at the top of many homebuyers’ tick lists when searching for a new home.
As lifestyles change, reliance upon the internet (and a speedy connection) for those working from home can actually make good broadband an essential feature for many buyers.
For families, a reliable, fast broadband speed is all the more essential with home working, leisure, socialising and work all dependent upon this service.
With a range of fibre optic broadband services now available (including rural broadband specialist services) getting up to speed on your connectivity could be a far more cost effective way to add value to your home than completing a loft conversion.
If "you have B4RN planned imminently, make sure your buyers know. It could be a deal-breaker for them" - AshdownJones
