Here are some points to consider when deciding whether to find an estate agent in Shildon to help you market and sell or let your property.

Normally an agent will advertise your property on property portals, such as Rightmove, and in your local or Shildon 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
Tidy Up
Make sure that rooms are clean and tidy, especially bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen.
Pet Problems
If you own pets, then consider re-housing them while your try to sell your home. At the very least, keep them out of sight during viewings, and make sure that you have removed as much trace of them as possible. Cat litter trays, bowls of pet food, pet hairs, stains on carpets and scratched up walls or furniture can be off-putting. There is also the issue of allergies to consider. Many people are allergic to pet hairs and dust. A home that sets off a reaction may put off otherwise keen Shildon viewers. Consider calling in a local Shildon cleaning specialist to revive carpets.
