HOW IT WORKS
A clear plan. Agreed together.
Every property and situation is different. These five stages explain how an Assisted Sale can work when it is appropriate.
01 · Property Assessment
We look at your property, its condition, approximate value and your circumstances. We listen to what matters to you, including your selling timescale.
02 · Proposed Solution
If an Assisted Sale appears suitable, we explain the improvements, presentation or marketing that could help, along with estimated costs and the uncertainties involved.
03 · Written Agreement
Before proceeding, proposed expenditure, responsibilities, repayment of costs and the division of any additional proceeds are agreed with you in writing.
04 · Improvements & Marketing
Agreed works can be arranged and the property prepared and marketed for sale, in line with the written agreement.
05 · Property Sale & Settlement
When the sale completes, agreed costs and the financial settlement are dealt with according to the written agreement.
What to have ready for the first conversation
- The property postcode or address and a brief description of its condition.
- An approximate value, if you have one. An estimate is enough at this stage.
- Your reason for selling, preferred timescale and any important deadlines.
- An approximate mortgage balance, if known and if you wish to share it.
Please do not send bank details, identity documents, account numbers or sensitive personal records with your initial enquiry.
Before you agree to proceed
Ask for the proposed costs, responsibilities and settlement terms in writing. Take time to understand what happens if works cost more, a buyer withdraws or the sale does not complete. Independent legal advice can help you assess the agreement.
An assessment does not mean your property has been accepted for an Assisted Sale. Price, timing, additional proceeds and completion remain uncertain.
