    Once a price has been agreed, we recommend preparing the property for professional photography and virtual tours. This involves decluttering and ensuring the property appears tidy and spacious. If there is a garden, it should also be well-maintained and presentable.

    The next step includes arranging for:

    • Professional photography
    • A detailed floorplan
    • A virtual tour
    • An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

    For vacant or unfurnished properties, we also recommend staging. Staging helps showcase the property in the best possible light, highlighting its move-in-ready condition and attracting more interest from potential buyers.

    Before launching the property on the open market, we first offer it to our database of pre-qualified buyers. These are individuals who have either purchased through us previously or are new to the market with their finances already arranged. This allows us to generate early interest even before the property goes live publicly.

    To ensure your property receives maximum exposure, we advertise across all major property portals, including:

    • Rightmove
    • Zoopla
    • OnTheMarket
    • Our own website
    • Various social and lifestyle platforms

    This multi-channel approach helps to reach a wide and targeted audience, increasing the likelihood of a successful sale.

    We will put forward all offers received and discuss the best options with you, helping you make an informed decision. While all offers are considered, particular weight is given to the buyer’s position and financial readiness. We will assess factors such as:

    • Whether the buyer is a cash purchaser
    • If they have a mortgage agreement in place
    • Whether they are chain-free, meaning their purchase is not dependent on selling another property

    We will always negotiate on your behalf and guide you to achieving the best price.

    Once an offer is accepted, both you and the buyer will need to instruct solicitors to begin the legal process of the sale. We will always guide you through the next steps and remain hands-on throughout the process.

    Once instructed, your solicitor will prepare and send out a formal contract of sale, including details of the property and completed fixtures and fittings forms. The buyer’s solicitor will then review the documents and raise any enquiries they may have.

    Choosing an experienced and proactive solicitor or conveyancer can significantly impact how smoothly and quickly your sale progresses. A good legal professional will help prevent delays and ensure all paperwork is handled efficiently.

They were happy to fix any and all faults in the flat that were raised to them - from painting walls, to fixing the boiler or replacing the shower head. I never felt that I had to justify why something needed fixing which I appreciated a lot (especially after hearing about some stories from different estate agents). While I felt very reassured throughout my time renting with them, I do wish the communication was”...
