At different ends of the country and indeed, different types of property, we’ve had offers this morning already (it’s just gone 10am) on TWO of our properties.

We’re hopeful that with a bit of enthusiastic negotaition we can achieve sales for both clients today.

Fingers crossed.

By the way, the combined estate agents fee saving will be £6652.oo.

…in Ilkeston, Derbyshire; Mold, Flintshire; Hope Valley, Derbyshire; Southsea, Hampshire; London N5; Consett, Durham and Cardiff.

A great variety of properties that will be live online very soon!

The combined estate agents fee saving?

£35,200

WHICH published a report two days ago after investigating High Street estate agents fees.

They found, after speaking to 48 firms, that commissions varied hugely with some agents, particularly in London and the North, charging up to 3.5% of the sale price!

Are they worth it? Not according to the Office of Fair Trading that has recently stated that home sellers should look to online estate agents, like eMoov.co.uk, in order to slash the cost of moving home by £thousands.

eMoov are recommended by WHICH? the consumer website.

‘You’re worth your weight in gold’ says one of our clients whose house we have just SOLD in Northern Moor, Manchester.

They paid eMoov £349.00 to market their home and have accepted an offer from first time buyers today.

The estate agents fee saving compared to High Street agents? £1982.00

Or, the equivalent of a rather nice holiday.

Internet estate agents work just as well. For less….

We’ve SOLD a great value shared ownership apartment in Scholars Walk, Cambridge today.

It’s been on the market with us for four weeks and we have arranged four viewings and have had two offers to purchase it.

The owner, Mr Oliver, having paid eMoov just £349.00 to sell his property, has saved £1200.00 in estate agents fees.

Or he could have given it to a High Street agent. Or just thrown it in the bin… Same thing.
