Sell Your House Quickly Liverpool

Option 2: Sell Your House Fast for Market Value

Selling with a Normal Estate Agent

You may know of some of the main estate agents in Liverpool – Jones & Chapman, Venmore, Reeds Rains, Acumen, Hunters, Martin & Co. are some examples.

Once signed up, you’ll often be tied into a minimum contract of 3 months.  Your property will then be advertised to prospective buyers, mainly through the online portals like Rightmove and Zoopla.

Provided your property appeals, people will start booking in viewings.  With most agents, these are often held on weekdays (with some exceptions at weekends).

The majority work 9-5 hours and it’s therefore hard to get instant feedback on your property shortly after the viewing.  They probably also won’t send you specific data available on the portals.

Once a buyer has made an offer you’re happy with, most sellers end up working with a slow solicitor.  These days, it’s taking a minimum of 3 months to complete on sales – when it should be much less.

Another problem is that estate agents often waste a ‘golden period’  by overvaluing homes.  This is often to win your business, even though it’s not in your best interest.  Although getting the best price is the ultimate goal, and no one wants ‘seller’s remorse’, pricing unrealistically does more damage than good.

Selling Your House Online

You’ve probably also heard of online estate agents – Purple Bricks and Yopa are popular choices that operate all over the UK.   These companies state that they offer a more streamlined service compared to traditional high street agencies.

Whilst there are a number of clear advantages, homeowners often complain of the lack of real expertise and local housing market knowledge.  Others have noticed that the service can be too impersonal.

Most online agents also charge fees without any real guarantee of a sale.  You can either pay a lower amount up front, or delay paying more 6 to 10 months down the line.  The problem is that, once you’ve paid and signed up, there’s less of an incentive to get the property sold.

In their defence, however, many are taking more of a customer-centric approach.

Our Express Estate Agency blog post explores how the industry works today, valuing your house for a fair price and the benefits of using an express sale service.
