When you come to sell or rent your home, it’s not a good idea to become passive. Whilst it is likely you’ll be working with an estate agent, there are lots of active measures you can take to ensure your house is valued correctly and sold expediently. The most important step is choosing the right estate agent to act for you.
Rather than arbitrarily choosing your estate agent, here are some ideas for identifying the very best estate agents:
There various measures you can use to assess whether an estate agent is a good one. In terms of local estate agents, you might look at local market share, a good company is more-often-than-not a successful company. You may also seek the opinion of friends, family or colleagues who live in the local area to gather consensus.
However, as valuable as these measures are, they don’t represent the complete picture. Estate agents don’t just deal with property they also deal with people. If you don’t have a good gut feeling about an estate agent then this could tarnish the experience, meaning your experience with the agent in terms of professionalism and results can be much affected.
