“We sold in 6 weeks and saved £7000”
Mr and Mrs Bache told us about selling
their house in Wales
“We wanted to sell our house because the
children have grown up and moved away so we had the chance to
downsize, release some capital and enjoy life.
We hadn’t sold privately before, but
thought we’d try it out and if it didn’t work we would still
have the option of using an estate agent.
We chose HouseWeb specifically because
their site had the best selection of properties in Wales,
compared to other sites we looked at.
We based our asking price on an estate
agent valuation we had got 12 months prior to advertising on
HouseWeb, but we felt this was fair as we passed our saving of
about £7000 in agents fees on to our buyer. It only took six
weeks to sell and we felt that cutting out the middleman saved
time and mis-understandings.
My advice to people with a property to sell
is to try HouseWeb first, before resorting to an estate agent,
to be realistic about the asking price and sure of what the
lowest acceptable offer would be. It’s also really important
to have a comprehensive, but concise, description with good
photos.”
