“Try
selling privately - you've got nothing to lose and so much to
gain!”
Adam Kelly, London
“We
needed to move house as we were living in a flat in the middle
of London and just had a baby, space became important.
I
thought about selling it ourselves as I work from home, so I
knew I would be available to show people around. Apart from
taking pictures and putting your details on a website, I didn't
see why we'd need an estate agent.
We
hadn’t sold privately before so I searched the internet for
web sites allowing you to sell your home privately. HouseWeb had
a good easy to use site and a wide range of web sites that our
property would be marketed on. It was very straight forward to
set up and we sold within two months. We had the flat valued by
an agent, sold for slightly less, and based on their quoted
commission of 2% still saved ourselves nearly £10,000.
I
would recommend anyone to try selling
privately first. You've got nothing to lose and so much
to gain. I also think it’s less stressful because you're more
in control and don't have to deal with estate agents.”
