The costs associated with buying and selling property can be substantial and sometimes when cash is limited, it can be tempting to skimp on the essentials. Many of us as first-time-buyers will remember having saved much-needed cash by press-ganging reluctant friends and family to help them move home, perhaps saving hundreds of pounds in the process.
That might be a sensible saving when all you are moving consists of a secondhand toaster, your uncle’s hand-me-down sofa and your treasured high-end hifi speakers or Jimmy Choos, but as we accumulate more valuable chattels, trusting the ming vase to little Johnny’s sticky hands starts to seem like a risk not worth taking!
The same principle can be applied to other costs associated with moving home. Most estate agents typically charge between 1.5% and 2% of a property’s sale price for their services, with some offering a lesser service for a reduced commission. Some simply charge an administrative ‘listing fee’, payable whether they sell your property or not.
Before you make a decision on who you use to sell your most valuable possession, your home, it’s important to weigh up what’s at stake if you make the wrong decision. After all, if your property sells for 5% less than its actual market value, that could cost you many thousands of pounds on the average Bracknell home. A sobering thought.
So, how can using the right estate agent save you thousands? Here’s how;
A property’s value is determined by many factors but in basic terms, it will depend upon what a buyer is prepared to pay a seller in an open market. In order to achieve the best selling price, which by definition is likely to be the property’s market value, many factors need to be considered and this is where the right estate agent can save you thousands;
Whether we are achieving a higher sale price for your property by recognising potential and marketing it intelligently, or saving you money in abortive costs and delays, the professional estate agent can save you many thousands more than you will ever pay us in commission.
