Questions Recently Answered by Steven

Can my property be marketed immediately after instructing an agent?

The law states that there is a duty on the person acting on behalf of the seller (the estate agent) to be satisfied that an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) has been commissioned before commencing marketing. If required we can assist you with the preparation of the EPC and this can normally be secured within a couple of days.

Should I redecorate prior to selling?

In most cases it’s not necessary, although sometimes a neutral decor can help buyers to visualise themselves living in the property. If you're not sure, speak with your nearest branch to get some free advice from one of our team.

What are property open days?

We often arrange block viewings, with multiple members of staff present (if the numbers merit it) but we do not advertise the block viewing as an ‘open house’ where anyone can turn up during the advertised time. We book specific time-slots for every viewer and qualify them before they attend.
