Why instant Valuations are not the “Bad guy”
You will always get people suggesting that instant valuation tools are the worst for your property - we see it differently here at MECS.
Instant Valuation tools are often seen under a bad light in the property industry, which is harsh to say the least. They are often seen as a random number generator which takes a name and a post code in exchange for a figure which may as well be pulled out of the air at random. However, we like to play devil’s advocate for these simple tools – simply because they save you so much time.
As a property owner, you are important, you have busy lives. Getting an agent out at a time which suits you so, you do not have to ruin a whole day’s work is hard. Let alone getting a time with an agent of choice, that they can do, in their ever-filling diary of other Vendors or Landlords.
In essence - How else are you going to get the value of your property in under a minute?
Furthermore, the valuation tool is designed to put you infront of the right people, so you can have a chat where both parties are pre-informed about your home.
Shameless isn’t it? There is our Valuation Tool.
Truth be told – banks are already looking into making the valuation process of properties quicker and easier with the development (slow but steady) of more accurate AVM (Automated Valuation Model). This process essentially uses mathematics and a HUGE database to value your property against other properties in the area which are on the market/sold. This new system, if put in place, could reduce the time to sell someone’s property drastically; meaning less sales falling through and less waiting for the equity to be released. Which, I think we call can agree, is better for everybody involved
You might still be saying: “I’m still not convinced…”
If your still not in awe of these valuation techniques, we offer our 1-1 valuations. We can do them virtually (over the phone, Zoom, Facetime or Whatsapp) and we can do them Face to Face, the traditional way – whichever suits you best!
If you’re in the market to Let or Sell your property, or simply just want to know the value of your home, get in touch now.
