The selling process of property might seem complex, but the right plan and appropriate support will make it easier.
The decision to sellHow long have you been considering selling? Whether you have found your perfect next home, or you’re still searching, you’ll be a more viable buyer if you’re a cash buyer or you already have your property listed. Sellers will look more favourably on your offer as an option for them.
Are you holding back because you feel the need to make renovations? Check with your local estate agent whether modernisation would add profit value to your sale price. Many buyers prefer to pay a little less for a home and make the changes themselves.
Is the timing right?Market conditions affect the timing and potential proceeds. If you’re unsure whether now is a good time to start, contact your local agent can offer some insight on expected timelines.
Getting a valuationWe can offer a free, expert valuation at Mackenzie Smith. This will reflect local trends, and ensure your listing price attracts buyers while maximising your return.
Plan aheadWhether you are buying, renting, or relocating, consider your next steps, as these will influence your timeline and therefore priorities in negotiations.
Get an Energy Performance CertificateAll UK homes should display an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating when marketing. Arranging this early will be helpful to demonstrate your property’s energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness to potential buyers.
Prepare your homeShowcase your home for Marketing photos and viewings by making minor repairs and decluttering. Our agents will be happy to give you tips on how to dress your property for the best first impression.
Safeguard your saleWe recommend safeguarding your sale by being legally prepared. It’s wise to contact your solicitor as soon as you start the sale process. Hire a qualified conveyancer to cover legalities, from title checks to contract reviews, ensuring the smoothest possible process.
To ensure your sale goes through smoothly, Mackenzie Smith is partnered with Conveyancing Alliance. This means we can offer fixed fees and no fee without completion.
The right offerWhen you receive and accept the right offer for your home, it’s time to begin moving toward the completion of your property sale. Our agents will keep you up-to-date, often chasing results within property chains.
Negotiate the contractWork with your conveyancer to agree on terms, ensuring clarity on conditions and timelines.
Exchange contractsThis is a binding step where both parties commit, and a deposit is paid. You’re nearly there and the excitement is often tangible!
Complete the saleOn the completion day, funds are transferred, and the property legally changes ownership. It’s time to pay the costs related to your sale, enjoy the proceeds, and perhaps pay for your new home!
Selling doesn’t have to be daunting. With careful planning and our support, you can navigate the process confidently, ensuring it aligns with your goals. The dedicated efforts of our team mean you can rest assured you’ll receive the best in customer service, communications and efficiency, too.
