“An
excellent site and phone service!”
Rachel
Knight from Warwickshire
“I
decided to sell my home to raise some money to spend 6 months in
France.
A
neighbour suggested I try to sell privately, and the estate
agents fees seemed to incorporate a lot of overheads that would
not be relevant to us. Once we looked into what was involved, I
had no reservations at all.
Before
selecting HouseWeb I started with a cheaper option on another
site, and found that their software had so many bugs, which just
seemed to escalate when they so-called ‘fixed them’, that I
decided to go for a company who had been established for a long
time – HouseWeb!
I
found it relatively easy to input my house details on the site.
I recall that when I did need some help, the phone back up
service was excellent.
I
sold the house within a couple of months. From first putting it
on HouseWeb to completion it took 4 months. I got valuations
from agents and sold for the highest valuation, which was over
£4,500 more than the lowest, plus I saved about £3,000 by
selling privately.
The
whole process of selling without an agent was much less
stressful as I felt in control and had no one else to blame!
If
you like trying things for yourself, and want to save the money,
give HouseWeb a go. Try
and find others that have experience in selling privately for
tips and advice. Don’t over-value – you’ll only be wasting
your time. Keep descriptions concise, but detailed. Above all,
be honest in your description - point out the downsides as well
as the up. You will
save wasted viewings.
Generally
an excellent site, and as stated, phone service is excellent.”
