Frequently Asked Questions On Selling A Residential Property
How do I know what my home is worth?
A professional valuation should reflect sold prices, current buyer demand, condition, location and comparable competition. A well-pitched asking price can generate stronger viewing levels early on, which often leads to a better outcome than ‘testing the market' at a too high price for too long and gaining no attraction.
What should I do before marketing begins?
Focus on the basics that will have the highest impact: declutter, make small repairs, refresh tired paintwork where needed and ensure kerb appeal is strong. Buyers typically decide how they feel within moments, so first impressions matter - especially online where photos create the first ‘viewing'.
How long will it take to sell?
Timescales depend on pricing, presentation, local stock levels and the strength of proceedable buyers. Once an offer is agreed, the conveyancing process can vary widely, it's wise to plan around a range rather than a fixed date and ensure your paperwork is ready early.
What makes an ‘offer' good - besides the price?
The best offer is usually a combination of price and certainty. A buyer with no chain, mortgage agreed in principle, solicitor ready, etc., can be worth more than a higher offer that carries delays and risk of fall through.
