Are you brave enough to discover truth about how to sell your house privately?  Perhaps you may be wondering is that even possible with so many homeowners selling their homes via estate agents?  Yes this is possible using a virtual estate agency.  A virtual estate agency will advertise your property online, put up a for sale board outside your property, receive enquiries from prospective buyers and then pass this information over to you to arrange viewings, accompanying the buyers to the property and negotiating directly for best possible price.

The beauty of using this method is that it can very cost effective with prices starting from £299 ranging up to £500 but beware, if your property does not sell and you may want to reduce the price usually there’s an administrative charge involved which varies from one estate agency to another.  However, there are benefits too for example you will not be paying a hefty commission to your estate agent, you could see how many enquiries your house is receiving on an almost daily basis so you have full transparency and flexibility to negotiate directly with buyers.

In our opinion, the strategy you should consider is to use leverage of people’s skills and expertise to your advantage and get the best possible price for your property within a reasonable timeframe.  Remember, the estate agents do not charge a fee for your property appraisal so it may be worthwhile booking a few viewings with them and get an idea of how much your house is worth and then putting up property with a virtual estate agency.  As always read the small print before you sign up to anything.  We wish you every success with sale of your property.
