"We saw a write up of HouseWeb in the Mail on Sunday and
thought why not give it a go!"
Jason Frost from Horsham told us about re-locating to be nearer
to his family.
“We had
been with an agent and were very unhappy with the service we
received, so we talked them into letting us change to a
multi agency agreement. We then appointed a second agent.
We then saw a write up of HouseWeb in The Mail on Sunday and
thought “why not give it a go”. For a relatively small
cost we really didn't feel we had much to lose.
The review in
the Mail on Sunday was
the reason why we chose HouseWeb, but also compared to other
sites they seemed to put the advertisements out to more property
search websites, we therefore felt that the more coverage the
better.
The
process of selling privately was very much less stressful than
using an estate agent. We bought our new house through an
agent at the same time, and that seemed far more stressful due
to the estate agent 'meddling'. The Buyer first called us about 10 days after the advert
was live on HouseWeb. We
sold for the full asking price and saved £7,800 in Estate
Agent fees.
My
advice to anyone selling a property would be to avoid Estate Agents if you possibly can. Give
as much information in your advert and ensure you take the best
pictures you can. We waited for a sunny day before taking
external shots and it was worth the wait.
Estate
agents tend to push people into viewing properties when they
aren't really suitable, so using HouseWeb, you may not get as
many people to view your house, but you can be sure that the
people that come are genuinely interested after making
their own informed decision.”
