Estate Agent Fees: Annoying Cost - Or Intelligent Investment?

HOM-B

One of the first questions people often ask when they contact estate agents for the first time is: “How much do you charge?”.

It’s an important question, but should it be the question?

Well, it depends how you view estate agent fees. Are they annoying costs that – literally – come with the territory? Or are they a long-term investment that pays off for the switched-on seller?

If they’re merely costs, then by all means choose your cheapest high-street agents.

But if you’re thinking long-term - getting the best price for your property with the minimum stress ready for a bright future in your new home - you probably won’t mind that extra investment. A Fiesta will get you to the same destination as a Ferrari eventually, but I know which I would rather drive…

After all, we’re talking about your most valuable asset. Who do you want looking after it?

We’ve seen high-street estate agents offering absurdly low fees just to get a new property listed and a new transaction under their belt.

They’re not interested in you, your family or your future – you’re simply a statistic.

Are we the cheapest agents out there? No.
