Roy and Bet Randall had previously enjoyed life in two bedroom house situated on the outskirts of Dorchester. After having experienced a number of problems with unruly neighbours they decided the time was right to move on. Their decision to move was also prompted by the realisation that lack of money for their retirement would leave many of their dreams unfulfilled, particularly those to travel and to visit family abroad. Also, day-to-day, the location of their property meant they had to travel some distance to the shops and without the use of a car this was becoming increasingly frustrating.
Roy and Bet contacted Homewise after having seen an advert in a Grand UK Holidays brochure. They were undecided at first as to the type of property they were looking for but took advantage of the impartial help and advice from their Homewise Sales Advisor in making the right decision.
Their chosen property was a 3 bedroom bungalow in Bournemouth. The property benefited from being close to local shops and amenities and a short walk from the seafront and excellent transport links. The property was on the market for £325,000 and they only paid £255,500 for a Lifetime Lease. In the move they were able to raise £65,000 from the sale of their house and this money has made a huge difference to their lives.
Since moving home the Randall’s have holidayed in the Canary Islands, taken a cruise along the Rhine and are now planning what Mr. Randall described as a ‘major cruise' around the Baltic. In addition to this, they are planning regular visits their family in Germany.
