Why use a Wakefield Estate Agent?

The Right Value

A Wakefield-based estate agent will know the sensible marketing value of a property such as yours, located in your area of Wakefield.

Agent Accompanied Viewings

Some estate agents in Wakefield will give the option to do accompanied viewings in preference to you showing viewers around your own property. The agent will show-off your house to viewers, drawing attention to the most attractive features. Some viewers are increasingly likely to tell an agent, than the property owner, what they find unattractive about a property. This means that if you employ the services of a Wakefield estate agent, you are far more likely to receive honest information on what aspects of your house need fixing to get a faster sale, at the highest value.

Wakefield agents are specialists at marketing

Wakefield estate agents are experienced at marketing properties. Not every person is born a salesman - and the work of getting a sale is typically best left to the experts. Your property agent should know how to take appealing protographs of your property, how to create an appealing write-up of it and the best place to market that information to get the greatest amount of interest.

Time

Although you may be confident that you're more than capable of managing the sale of your own property, the truth of the matter is that many of us have precious little spare time. Wakefield applicants will not appreciate having to arrange viewings around your schedule. In all likelihood you will achieve a faster sale if you use a good Wakefield estate agent.

Selling Tips

Pay For A Deep Clean - If a girl was going out on a important date, there's a reasonable chance she's either spend a lot of time at home getting ready, or even go to a Wakefield beauty salon. If you're trying to sell a Wakefield property then don't treat it any different! Consider getting in a deep-cleaning service. Prices, and level of service will vary, so look around! They will steam clean carpets, curtains and upholstery. They will get rid of all of the dirt that you may not even notice. Your oven will look like new! Hopefully the overall freshness and odour of your property will improve. This should really help with your sale!

Gloss Work - Tired looking Gloss Work (such as doors, door frames and skirting boards) can make a property look shabby. Try to bring it all back to a shine with a damp cloth.

Will selling a property in Wakefield need a Wakefield conveyancing solicitor? - Will selling a property in Wakefield need Wakefield conveyancing solicitor? This is an excellent question. Many people in Wakefield may mistakenly think that they need a Wakefield solicitor to do their conveyancing. The reality is this, that your conveyancing solicitor does not need to be local. Some Wakefield solicitors choose only to deal with Wakefield property transactions, or other properties very nearby. Other conveyancers will choose to handle transactions from all over the UK. Their quality of service will in no way be less than a local solicitor. It may well be better, as they specialize in conveyancing. It is also likely that their prices will be more competitive.

Modernise dated fittings. - It's arguable that some folk love "dated". The majority don't. If your house is looking more 80s than "now" you may want to consider zapping the worst offenders. Nasty wallpaper can be covered with a lick of paint, cupboard doors and tiles can also be painted over, and door handles are easily replaced. Wakefield property hunters will mainly prefer a "blank canvas" to a scheme that sticks out as being dated.
