It's never a bad time to buy a garden office, all things being equal, and so I'm passing on details of a recent email exchange I had with a leading garden office supplier which focused on the question of when is the right time to buy.
Unsurprisingly, they said right now is the right time to buy. But then they pointed to a comparison of prices for a model seven years ago and the same model today. Back then it was around the £7,500 mark, and the same size is now nearly twice as much, £14,500. As they said, if you'd bought one back then, you could now sell it for more than you paid for it (unless you've done something terrible to it in the intervening period).
"Potential customers will watch inflation inevitably raise the prices of timber, steel, fuel and energy and with it, the price of our buildings as we don't have a choice," they said. It's the same thing I've heard from other suppliers over the last 12 months.
So if you're thinking about taking the shedworking plunge, don't put it off too long.
