Selling Process

Unless you are very lucky your property is normally your biggest asset. When you come to sell it you naturally want to obtain the best price, so you rely on skilled professionals with local experience to get you the correct valuation. A professional agent will have a good range of comparable evidence of sold prices in your area and the local knowledge to back it up.

When choosing an estate agency it is not always the highest valuation nor the lowest commission that will be in your best interests.

If the valuation is to high your property may stay in the estate agency’s portfolio for weeks without any interest. This results in the property looking stale and reduces its appeal.

A low commission can look very attractive when budgeting, but costs will inevitably be cut somewhere. However, it could become a costly decision if your property is not marketed effectively and presented to the world professionally with high-quality images, floor plans and brochures. A key consideration should be where your property will advertised. A high-street presence and regular opening hours will certainly lend confidence to your choice of agent.

A confident and responsible estate agency will be at your side all the way providing you with the best advice gained over years of experience.

The rule here is to present your property looking its best. The more attractive a property looks, the higher level of interest it will create. This is one important area that is under the your control and where you can maximise your property’s potential.
