Here are some points to consider when deciding whether to find an estate agent in stockcross to help you market and sell or let your property.
Good Local Knowledge
An estate agent or letting agent in stockcross is very likely to have good local knowledge, and thus be an effective marketer of your property.
Quality Marketing
A good stockcross 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 stockcross property needs as much exposure as possible, to maximise interest from potential buyers. Normally an agent will advertise your property on property portals, such as Rightmove, and in your local or stockcross 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.
Good Advice
A stockcross estate agent will be able to answer any queries you may have about the buying or selling process.
Missed Opportunities
You local stockcross Estate Agents will always be available, by telephone or email, to deal with enquiries about your property. If you try to DIY your house sale then you are likely to miss may opportunities because you are unlikely to be available to field enquiries.
Selling Tips
Be Energy Efficient
If you're selling your home then stockcross buyers will be looking for energy efficient properties, as these will be cheaper to run, and easier to sell.
A good stockcross 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 stockcross are typically presented in magnolia and white. The light colours make rooms look bigger 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 stockcross buyer’s liking!
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 stockcross buyers.
Make some coffee
Most people love the smell of brewing coffee, even if they don't like to drink it. Consider putting on some fresh coffee just before a viewing, it's sure to create a welcoming odour for those stockcross viewers!
