Do you know what your property is worth? Do you have realistic view of what you could sell for? If you’re set your price too high, you risk not getting prospective buyers to view. But of course if you ask too little, you’ll be leaving money on the table.
The value of your property depends on so many factors - not just size and location, but condition, parking, public transport, schools in the area, leasehold or freehold, and many other factors. It can be difficult to judge the perfect pricing. We sell properties in north London all day every day. We know the market; we know the prices that other properties have achieved. So before you do anything else, ask us for a valuation of your property.

We’ll advise on the legal requirements you need to meet before we start marketing your home. For example, it is a Government requirement to have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) before you start marketing your home. An EPC contains:

• information about a property’s energy use and typical energy costs
• recommendations about how to reduce energy use and save money

An EPC gives a property an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and is valid for 10 years. It gives prospective buyers a view of the running costs of the property. If you bought the property within the last 10 years, you’ll already have one. If not, we can help you get an assessment.
We will only sell properties that have an EPC rating of E or above. We will not accept F and G rated properties. x

The more people who view your property and want to put in an offer, the better the price you’ll achieve. So we advertise your property widely and get the right prospective buyers coming through the door.
We’ll take professional photos that showcase your property at its very best, and write an engaging description that highlights all its best features.
We advertise your property on our own website, and on all the most popular property sites, including Zoopla, OnTheMarket, and PrimeLocation.
We also maintain a database of buyers, so we’ll match your property with buyers who are looking for something similar, and directly market your property to them.

We’ll arrange viewing times, and show prospective buyers through the property. This saves you the time and hassle of taking people round your property. We also know that many prospective buyers prefer being shown around by an agent, who is ‘neutral’, rather than the owner.
If you’d like to arrange an ‘open house’ where multiple prospective buyers can all view at the same time, we will organise and manage that for you too.

When a prospective buyer makes an offer, we’ll act as the communication channel between you and them. We’ll advise you of the offer, and take your response back to the prospective buyer. We’re here to discuss with you the merits of each offer, and help you decide whether to accept. Don’t forget, you are our client and we’ll always aim to get the best price for your property.
It’s our role to validate potential buyers on your behalf, and confirm that we believe they are in a position to follow through on their offer. Under the Property Ombudsman Code of Practice, we have to take reasonable steps to confirm the buyer’s financial status, such as whether they have a property they need to sell, whether they need a mortgage or if they’re a cash buyer.
If they need a mortgage, we’ll ask them to show an ‘agreement in principle’ confirmation from their lender.
Note: we will put all offers to you (as we are legally obliged to do), even before we’ve carried out these checks. But we’ll then advise you of the results of our research on the buyer.
Under this Code, we are also legally obliged to put all offers through to their client, you the seller, even if the buyer hasn’t been financially qualified at this stage. When you accept an offer, it is then the estate agents job to regularly monitor the buyer’s progress in achieving the funds required and keep you informed.

You’ve accepted an offer! Now we will issue a document called a Memorandum of Sale, which provides the details of you, the buyer and both parties’ solicitors.
Then we’ll oversee the sale process, ensuring issues are promptly addressed and liaising between you, the buyer and solicitors through to the exchange and completion of the sale.
Our charge for our complete end to end service is 1% of the sale price (plus VAT) if we are your only agent, or 2% plus VAT if you use multiple agencies.
