Selling the Traditional Way-

We know that selling any home is a difficult time for the home-owner, but if you need to sell quickly then using traditional methods can be extremely stressful and frustrating.

Selling your house, bungalow or flat the traditional way:

Get estate agents round to value your home.

Estate agents will give you an inflated valuation, normally 5 to 10% higher than true market value in an effort to persuade you to sell through them - implying that they will get you the best price.

The agent will erect a 'for sale' sign outside your home ensuring your friends and neighbours know you are selling.

You need to do all those painting and decorating jobs that you have kept putting off, fix up the garden, tidy up and wait for a call from the agent.

When the agent finds a potential viewer, you again have to tidy up and show them round your house.

When you do get an offer it will normally be well below the estate agents valuation.

This is usually repeated many times over, although often with time wasters and nosy parkers.

The prospective purchaser will probably have to get a mortgage, which may take weeks to arrange.

The purchaser will usually not be able to complete before he sells his own home and his buyer will probably be in a similar position, the dreaded chain!On average 30% of accepted offers do not proceed to completion.

If your sale falls though then the viewing process starts again.The average time between deciding to put a home on the market and selling through an estate agent is 7 months.That is 7 months of stress and frustration for you.

During this extended period of time just consider your costs; decorating costs, monthly mortgage repayments, estate agent commission and solicitors fees.
