The Valuation Appointment
The first step in the process of selling your property is establishing its current market value, in order to do this Thomas Brown Estates will provide a FREE property valuation with absolutely no hard-sell or obligation. An experienced member of our Valuation Team will visit you at your property at a mutually convenient time – which can include evenings and weekends. We also carry out free probate valuations. To book a valuation please contact us on 01689 884444 or use the form at the bottom of this page.
The valuation appointment is not just a chance for us to assess your property, but also to meet you in person to fully understand your motivation for selling, your required timescales and establish your onward plans. This will enable us to advise you accurately on the best strategy for marketing your property, and to explain our marketing techniques, which are always tailored to meet your requirements.
Our comprehensive preparation ahead of the valuation appointment itself, enables us to provide you with an accurate valuation figure by researching local comparable properties that have either sold recently, or are being marketed currently in your location, and would therefore be in direct competition with your property once you are on the market. We will also provide actual sold prices from Land Registry data relevant to your property location. All of this information – together with our extensive experience and expertise of the local area and current market conditions, and having physically seen your property on the valuation appointment, enables us to give you an accurate valuation figure for your property. The property market is fluid and can change rapidly, so the advice given to you regarding a proposed valuation figure may need to be updated regularly. Once we have established the valuation figure for your property, we will then agree a marketing price and strategy with you that will best achieve the valuation figure for you, and within your required timescale.
We will explain the process of selling a property, the costs involved and any other aspects of the sales process you may not be clear on. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have regarding the end to end sale process during the valuation appointment. We will endeavour to answer all of your questions and ensure that you are happy with the whole process of selling your property.
Finally, we will agree an acceptable fee with you that will be based on the level of service and coverage that you require. Please remember that whilst our fees are very competitive, some Estate Agents may quote you a low fee without even seeing your property, and without meeting you to understand your reasons for selling, your requirements and your timescales. The lowest fee will often not achieve the best price for your property. It is imperative that your property is pro-actively marketed to its full potential from the outset in order to achieve the best price for you.
Remember we operate on a ‘no sale, no fee’ basis.
