Mia originally studied teaching at university, and while education remains a long-term interest, she\u2019s proud of what she\u2019s achieved in the property world. Speaking to the <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">ECHO<\/a>, Mia said reaching the million mark is unusual for someone who has only been in the firm for 12 months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">She said: \u201cUsually it takes quite a while to build up your numbers, but with the amount of sales that I&#8217;ve gone through in the last year it\u2019s brought me up to \u00a31m.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">When asked how she\u2019s achieved this milestone, he said: \u201dI enjoy getting the sales in. I like speaking to the customers. I like building relationships with people. I think that&#8217;s what makes me want to carry on doing it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cI feel like having a personal touch is why people want to go ahead with our sales. With a lot of the other estate agents, the majority of the things are online.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cI make sure that I&#8217;m calling people. We do a lot of face to face as well. We always invite them to come in if they&#8217;ve got any questions. I find that&#8217;s probably the best approach to go with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Mia said the summer months are the best times for people to sell. She said: \u201cI\u2019m trying to do as much as I can while the market is busy. July to September are usually the busiest. So we find that\u2019s the best time for people to sell and get properties on the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">When asked which Merseyside areas first time buyers are \u201cfighting over\u201d at the moment, Mia cited the postcodes of L4 (covering <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/anfield\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Anfield<\/a>, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/kirkdale\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Kirkdale<\/a> and <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/walton\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Walton<\/a>), L6 (covering Anfield, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/everton\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Everton<\/a>, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/kensington\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Kensington<\/a>, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/fairfield\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Fairfield<\/a> and <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/tuebrook\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuebrook<\/a>) and L9 (covering <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/aintree\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Aintree<\/a>, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/fazakerley\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Fazakerley<\/a>, <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/orrell-park\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Orrell Park<\/a> and Walton).<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Mia said these areas are particularly attractive to people because of their lower house prices compared to other areas as well as proximity to the city centre and local amenities.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/0_County-RoadWaltonLiverpool.jpg\" alt=\"County Road in Walton, L4\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>County Road in Walton, L4(Image: Liverpool Echo)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">She said: \u201cL4 is a really popular area in particular because it\u2019s so close to the city centre. We find it&#8217;s really popular for investment properties in particular.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cThis week, we&#8217;ve had four new instructions [to sell] four different properties in the L4 area and the phones this week have just been crazy because we&#8217;ve got big open house viewings. Everyone&#8217;s placed an offer before the viewings because they don&#8217;t want to miss out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cAmenities are a big thing. For investors who want a family to move in, the local schools are important. For those who want HMOs [house in multiple occupation] they like being close to town because they want the students to be able to travel to and from the university.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Mia recommends that first time buyers have a mortgage agreement in principle. This is when you give an indication of how much you could borrow towards the purchase of a property.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/0_Mia-Power-sales-negotiator-at-JD-Estate-Agents-pic-2.jpg\" alt=\"Mia has made over \u00a31m in property sales over the last year\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Mia has made over \u00a31m in property sales over the last year(Image: Supplied)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Mia said: \u201cWe want first time buyers to be in the financial position to be able to go ahead with the purchase straight away once they&#8217;ve placed their offer so there&#8217;s no delays. We find that keeps the sellers happy as well because their sale will go through quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Looking back, Mia is glad she chose to work in this field. She said: \u201cI thrive off getting sales completed. It&#8217;s an achievement every time one goes through. That keeps me interested in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A local estate agent has issued her advice to first time buyersMia Power is a sales negotiator at&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":199226,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[51,6333,2516,10003,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-199225","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-business","9":"tag-housing","10":"tag-property","11":"tag-property-news","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114714422783360328","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=199225"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199225\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/199226"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=199225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=199225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=199225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
