Why use an Estate Agent in launceston?
There is a recent trend towards trying to sell your own property. Many new websites now offer services to assist you with this, but at AgentQuote.co.uk, we believe that there would be great value to you in finding a good estate agent in launceston to market and sell your property.
Here are some points to consider when deciding whether to find an estate agent in launceston to help you market and sell or let your property.
Good Advice
A launceston estate agent will be able to answer any questions you may have about the buying or selling process.
Accompanied Viewings
Most estate agents in launceston will offer to undertake accompanied viewings on your behalf. They will show off your property to viewers, drawing attention to all of the best features. Most viewers are more likely to tell an estate agent, than the owner, what they don’t like about a property. This means that if you use a launceston estate agent, you are likely to get honest feedback on what aspects of your property need dressing up to achieve a quick sale, at the best price.
In The Know
A good launceston estate agent will already have a shortlist of potential buyers (applicants) on their books, who may immediately want to view your property. This could result in a quick sale.
Quality Marketing
A good launceston estate agent will be an expert at marketing your property. They will know how to advertise your property in all the right places. Ideally your launceston property needs as much exposure as possible, to maximise interest from potential buyers. Typically an agent will advertise your property on property portals, such as Rightmove, and in your local or launceston property post. Other forms of marketing include window cards, handouts, mail-shots and open-house days. Remember, the frequency and quality of the content of the advertising is just as important as where it appears.
Selling Tips
Be Energy Efficient
If you're selling your home then launceston buyers will be looking for energy efficient properties, as these will be cheaper to run, and easier to sell.
A good launceston estate agent will be able to advise you and point you in the right direction for making your home more energy efficient.
An energy assessor will come and assess your property for a current and potential Energy Efficiency Rating and a current and potential Environmental (CO2) Impact Rating. This will be included in your HIP pack, which must be completed before you market your property.
Get Painting
Consider some fresh paint. There’s a good reason why new builds in launceston are typically presented in magnolia and white. The light colours make rooms look larger and cleaner. White paint, in particular, makes kitchens and bathrooms look spick and span. Remember, that dark purple that you painted your bedroom in, that you totally love, may not be to launceston buyer’s liking!
Molehills And Ants Nests
If your garden suffers from Mole Hills or ants nests, then take appropriate action to eliminate these pests (humanely, of course). These garden pests could be off-putting to launceston property buyers.
Scrub Up
Don’t be frightened to get out your favourite cleaning products and really get stuck into those tired areas of your property. The ’nearly new’ look of kitchen units, appliances and bathroom furniture will really go down well with launceston buyers.
