Guide to Finding a Great Estate Agent
Summary
To secure the best price for your property, it's essential to find a reliable estate agent committed to maximizing your sale. Here’s what you need to know to make an informed choice.Tips for Choosing an Estate Agent
1. Property Valuation: Obtain valuations from at least three different agents to understand your property's market value.
2. Professional Standards: Choose agents affiliated with reputable organizations like the Ombudsman or the National Association of Estate Agents, which ensure professionalism and adherence to a strict code of conduct.
3. Contract Details:
- Ensure the contract term is no longer than eight weeks, with a clear understanding of the notice period, ideally two weeks.
- Clarify the charges, the marketing plan, and the advertising strategy for your property.
4. Key Contract Terms:
- Ready, Willing, and Able Purchaser: Avoid this clause. It requires you to pay the agent even if you withdraw from the sale once a buyer is found.
- Multi-Agency: You can use multiple agents, but only the agent who closes the sale receives the commission.
- Sole Agency: The agent has exclusive rights, but you won’t owe a commission if you find a buyer yourself.
- Sole Selling: You must pay the agent regardless of who finds the buyer since they have exclusive selling rights.
5. Market Presence:
- Look for agents who advertise frequently in local newspapers. This can indicate their success and reliability.
- Investigate how long properties have been listed with them to gauge average selling times.
6. Local Insights:
- Observe the sale boards in your area to assess property prices. This will help you set a competitive price for your home.
By following these guidelines, you'll be better equipped to select an estate agent who will work diligently to sell your property at the best possible price.
