Selling Guide
Getting your property ready for sale
Present your property in the best possible way: fix anything that could put off buyers. You’ll also need an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for your property, which is valid for ten years.
Preparing your property before involving an estate agent can pay dividends. Taking the time to declutter, make repairs, spruce up the garden, and give select rooms a fresh coat of paint may seem minor, but these tasks can significantly impact the home’s final selling price. Completing these improvements before the agent’s market valuation will ensure your property presents at its best.
Instructing Estate agent
One of our experienced, professional team members will visit your home at a mutually convenient time to provide an expert valuation. They will discuss the current real estate market conditions and thoroughly explain the services we offer, including outlining our fees.
You’ll also need an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) for your property, which is valid for ten years. An EPC is short for an Energy Performance Certificate, a report that assesses the energy efficiency of a property. The report considers things like how well insulated the property is and it will tell you how much your bills might cost. It also recommends improvements to save you money

Receive offers and Negotiate
Drawing on our extensive experience, we negotiate the best possible offer on your behalf. Your dedicated agent will present the offer to you, and you’ll maintain control throughout the process from the agreed-upon price to the final sale completion.
Accepting an offer
Your agent connects with your solicitor, the sales process will commence. Your buyer’s lender will need to assess the property’s value for their mortgage offer, and they may order a survey or homebuyer report. Simply leave the process in the capable hands of your solicitors – we’ll ensure everything progresses seamlessly.
Exchanging contracts
At this stage your property solicitor exchanges contracts with the buyer’s solicitor, the sale becomes legally binding, and a non-returnable deposit is secured. However, be aware that you may face penalties if you withdraw from the deal after this stage.
Completion
Upon receipt of the final payment, ownership of the property will transfer to the new buyers. On the predetermined move-in date, which is typically a weekday to facilitate the legal and financial processing by solicitors and banks, the property must be vacated of all your personal belongings and ready for the new owners to take possession.
Your trust, Our commitment
After Sales Service
Once we have successfully agreed on the sale of your property, our commitment to you continues. We remain dedicated to working closely with you and your solicitor throughout the entire process.
