Sell a home

The Selling Process

The Selling Process - See Selling Options and Fees below

1. First contact

With knowledge of the housing market and surrounding locations, our work for you commences prior to your initial home market appraisal visit. Research of up-to-date sale prices of similar properties in the area, combined with what local amenities are available will be carried out. Boosting the online visibility of your property through portals featured listings on Rightmove and Zoopla, we also drive buyer-targeted activity through their websites. 

2. Arrange a market appraisal

Analysis of research aids us, once we have visited and taken a look around the property, to provide a realistic marketing or sales appraisal. Importantly, we understand the various motivations which drive the sales process and the consequent objectives of our clients. Trusting us with you home sale is the first part of the journey within which we will do our utmost to help you achieve those aims.

3. Select and appoint an estate agent

With our experience and proven track record to market your home you can trust Harrison Thorn, but do not take our word for it – head to the reviews page to hear about our exceptional service and commitment to detail. 

4. Marketing your property

Eye-catching photography and a genuine, descriptive write up establish the basis of marketing your property. Through a combination of online platforms, we reach the right audience with the maximum impact. 
 
5. Optimising viewings

In order to get the best sale price for your home involves selling a lifestyle, so your home needs to be shown at its best. This includes removing excess furniture to highlight space, allowing in lots of light, decluttering, decorating and dressing the rooms. Preparation really is key. 

6. Negotiating and considering offers

Achieving the best possible price for your home is an art form where we understand that experience and reliability really do matter. You can be assured that each offer made, following extensive background checks, will be communicated to you. Sound advice based on our broad range of knowledge will then guide you through subsequent negotiations, where we will act on your behalf. 

7. Agreeing the sale
The buyer’s position and the amount offered are integral when agreeing the sale of your home. However, the offered price may increase several times before acceptance, so it is crucial to trust Harrison Thorn’s expertise in this instance. We will keep you informed and up to date with every new development. 

8. Completion
We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service and do our absolute best to ensure that the selling experience is a positive one. Throughout the important final stage of the sales process, we will maintain a regular dialogue with all parties, so that the conclusion of your property sale runs smoothly. On completion, the solicitors transfer funds for purchase and following permission, the keys will then be released for collection.
