This is a little belated as we moved house just over two years ago. That said, it has been on my mind to offer this review and, in these days of "on-line estate agents", it's maybe worth commenting even now.
Neil Clubley, and all the team, provided an excellent service to us. Initially, we were not quite ready to put our house on the market as we had not found anywhere to buy. However, Neil did all the preparatory work ... photographs, overview, description, measurements, web-site entry, etc., ... in advance, so that we could put our house up at a moment's notice.
And, when we found our new house (to be), that's exactly what happened. Neil put the advert live on the various web sites, contacted prospective/interested buyers and arranged an open day which he managed ... we were nowhere to be seen on the day. Our house was sold, subject to contract, within a week of us putting it on the market.
To be fair, our house was well maintained, in good order, and in a sought after area (good schools catchment area, etc.) and Neil had a perfect match amongst his buyer list. And that buyer made an offer of the full asking price immediately after the open day viewing.
In those circumstances, it is easy to think that we could maybe have asked for more, but I think that Neil's recommended asking price was realistic for the area and type of house.
Neil helped and advised us from the outset and was in contact with us, our vendor's agents and our solicitors on a daily basis. If we didn't call him, he called us.
I don't think we could have asked for more from him and the team in the office. Only sorry I can't remember the names of the girls I spoke to.
While I know there is a lot of competition from on-line estate agents, I think you get what you pay for. If you're prepared to do a lot of the work yourself, it might be possible to save a little money but, in the grand scheme of things, it's not a lot. We actually tried to view a house that was on the market with one of those on-line agents ... and we gave up. I'm sure there will be an impact on the price high street estate agents can charge, but it'll probably be worth paying the extra.
Our thanks to Mosley-Jarman, Neil Clubley and all the team for their help.
Comment on agent fees
I think all the agents in the area offered similar fees and we're prepared to match each other to get the business. From memory, I think we agreed on 1/2%
