PICK A LETTER

PICK A LETTER

There are many styles of estate agency
operating in the Keighley area. Picking the right one to sell
your property can be daunting.

Different agencies provide a variety of
services, yet some people are unaware of the indirect benefit that apparently
unrelated services can offer. Whilst you may be thinking of selling rather than
letting your property, have you considered the benefit of instructing an agent
who also provides letting services, as we do, as it could be the make or break
of your sale, for a number of reasons:

Firstly, as we handle both sales and
lettings, we have long-term buy-to-let property investors permanently on our
books who buy through us regularly. They know us, they make quick decisions and
reliable offers. They prefer to buy through an agency that also does lettings
because it is easy for them to then let out their new investment. Indeed, we
are often able to find, reference and process a tenant who can move in quickly
- even on the day of completion in some instances, thereby helping to
maximising the investor’s return on investment!

Secondly, many of our tenants, wishing
to get their foot on the property ladder, subsequently go on to buy a property.
As we build good relationships with our tenants we are in prime position to be
able to help them buy one of our own clients’ properties - smoothing to move
from rented to purchased accommodation.

Thirdly, there are times when a vendor
decides not to sell, but to rent, or even pursue both options simultaneously,
in which case we are of course well positioned to handle both. Likewise, it is
sometimes the case that a prospective tenant decides to buy instead of renting,
again adding to our stock of pre-qualified buyers.

So when the time comes to sell, pick an
estate agent who also offers letting services. It will improve your chances of
a successful sale on the best possible terms!
