Thinking you want to sell your home? Here is where to start!

Thinking you want to sell your home? Here is where to start!

  1. Speak to a mortgage broker to get an understanding of your affordability to buy your next home – its important to know you can move and what you can buy before coming onto the market.

  2. Get your house for sale! – Lots of people will wait until they find the dream home they have been looking for to spring onto Rightmove before putting their own house up for sale, however usually feel heartbreak as it is sold to someone more proceedable before they know it! Don’t miss out and get yours for sale!

  3. Have at least 3 agents value your home – This isn’t just for the value, this is also to see who you trust the most to sell your home and what marketing packages they offer.

  4. Ask questions!– Ask the estate agents to see how many houses they have sold in your postcode this year and out of those how many have actually completed. The higher sold to completed percentage this shows the estate agent will look after you and the process.

  5. How they will market your home? – do they use professional photography? Rightmove Premium Displays? Will they conduct an open house event?

  6. Ensure you have a floorplan on your online advert – majority of buyers won’t click onto your property for more details if it doesn’t have a floorplan!
