Can not think of any reason why you should not sell via hatched.co.uk, unless of course you do not have time to do your own viewings.
We thought we would give hatched a go as opposed we didn't like the thought of paying thousands of pounds out to an estate agent.
They were quick & efficient and we saved a packet against the normal estate agent fees.

Well what can I say we would of signed up with them, but having viewed properties that they market it has been a knightmare, trying to view properties or get information about properties answered.
When arranging a viewing with them be prepared for it to take 5 days before you get a reply. I had to call them on several occasions chasing to get viewings on more than one marketed property.
Information regarding properties marketed, well never got a response.you believe we ended up knocking on the vendor doors to get information.We have also turned up for a viewing and the vendor had no idea about the viewing it wasnt only me that had turned up, she had had 3 previous potential buyers turn up at different times of the day too.
I dont mind paying the high street estate agents, as you do get a service and a response within 24 hours.

Worth a go-sold in 9 weeks and saved at least £1,000 although they don't 'aggressively' market the property like High Street Agents the property sells itself on all the major websites and they still arrange viewings and do all the other stuff so worth a try.

Initially sceptical about going the online route but so glad I did. Saved a hell of a lot of money (£4k on the most expensive high street EA who quoted me!).
The team at Hatched were very professional and prompt in returning my emails and calls.
For me this really is the future to selling homes so why wait? The only possible downside is that you do viewings yourself, but I didn't mind that. In fact I think I did a lot better job than some the EAs I have met in searching for a new place!

Would give them six stars if I could! This is the second time I have used Hatched (sold a property via them 4 years ago). They are a highly innovative and professional company. Nothing is ever too much trouble. In my opinion the service they provide is highly superior to that of high street agents and to top it off we saved in the region of £3,000 using them. Cannot praise them highly enough.

I have long been sceptical about on street estate agents and what exactly they do for the huge prices they charge. I decided to go with Hatched online and was impressed from the start. Everything was handled professionally and I am moving next week with more money in my pocket... thanks to Hatched!!

We were initially impressed with the reviews and the fees but having now been with them for the 8 week contract period and having no phone calls or visits we are disappointed. We did lower the price but still nothing. In addition we didn't receive any personal communication from Hatched over those 8 weeks to see how things were going. Worth a try as you have nothing to lose and potentially can make a sale at a cheap commission rate. But there really are no extras or help along the way. I would rate high as a good option to try but low as an actual estate agent.

As other people have said, good service, available, supportive and friendly. Though they had nothing to gain by increasing our sales price (we did the flat fee) they helped us get a great price and then continued to support us and chase up the sale. Thanks!

We are very pleased to have sold our house through Hatched. They were extremely efficient at all times and as long as you are happy to market through house selling websites, it is a very good way of selling without paying exorbitant fees to local estate agents.

I cannont recommend Hatched highly enough. They are certainly very professional in everything they do. Having your own online account to monitor the progress of your sale is very useful. The uptodate information Hatched supply you with is very helpful. They always return your calls and act efficiently and supply excellent service. The marketing of your property is done to a very high standard. I cannot speak highly enough of Hatched.

We were sceptical to start as the prices seemed too good to be true. But after speaking to a member of staff we decided to go ahead. And we are delighted we did. Our house was sold within 2-3 weeks and for a good value. Customer services was exceptional from beginning to end. Would highly recommend.

Impressive, truly impressive. I'm a 3rd time vendor, who had a traditional high street agent for my last two sales. The hatched team met all their website commitments and took care of everything; photos, particulars, virtual tour, arranging viewings, negotiations, and most importantly following up after each visit to obtain feedback.
Concerns I had over using an online only agent were quickly forgotten, with my first viewing booked days after the particulars hitting rightmove, then a steady stream of potential buyers.
Contracts have just been exchanged, and I'm moving next week.

We were a bit hesitant using Hatched as they seemed so cheap compared to the high street agents and we wondered how they could do it without cutting corners. But we took the plunge and were extremely pleased we did. They got us enough viewings to secure an offer within one week of going on the market, which we accepted. That unfortunately fell through at a crucial stage but Hatched found us another buyer literally 2 days later, and in fact the new buyer was willing to pay more for the house so that was a double bonus! They fielded a lot of phonecalls and emails, negotiated on our behalf and basically did everything you would expect an agent to do. The only thing they don't do is advertise in the local paper but we felt most people these days do their house hunting on line so that doesn't matter.
We were very pleased with the service and the price and would absolutely use them again the next time we move

Having decided to sell in a depressed market, I wasn't willing to then part with several thousand pounds to an estate agent. I spotted an article about on-line estate agents in the Guardian and decided to give them a try. From my first contact with Hatched, they were realistic in their dealings with me which was extremely refreshing. There were a steady stream of people who wanted to view, and from my own survey of them they had all conducted their own searches of the Internet to find a property, and only one had gone onto a High St agents mailing list.
By my own reckoning I saved myself at least
