When Is The Right Time To Change Agency During a Sale?
When you sell your home, sometimes it will feel like you have hit a wall or your dragging your feet. What can you do to help, how can YOU speed the process up?
Property sales are notoriously slow, laborious and sometimes frustrating. Why can’t it be simple? If the property has already been taken off the market by someone then unfortunately fault lies with one member of the chain/the solicitor you have chosen to use. However, if your property is struggling to get people through the door there might be a few factors to consider to help boost those leads and get someone to buy it.
There is a list of questions to think about - consider the marketing done by the agent. Are the photographs up to standard? Are they taken on a professional camera by someone who knows what they’re doing? Do you know If your agent does Virtual Tours, social media marketing and has the best negotiators to hand?
If the answer to one or more of those is no, you will want to start asking them why. It’s still not the end of the world if they don’t fulfil your needs. It’s very easy to change agency when your “Exclusivity Period” is over. Simply approach the new agent, follow their process and let the old agent know that you’re using two agencies.
It’s a win, win situation considering most agencies run a no sale no fee policy.
