HOW TO SELL YOUR HOME IN GLASGOW – PICKING AN AGENT

As a first port of call most people choose to appoint an estate agent to help them through the process. An estate agent of whichever kind can help you with preparing and presenting your property, supply you with a wide array of advertising and usually if they have good experience will be able to answer queries and guide you through the decision making process on how, what, why and when. Often there are conflicting situations and hard decisions to be made. An estate agent who is knowledgeable and seasoned at dealing with property sales will always be able to give you guidance on how things have worked out for other people in similar situations and what the potential outcomes could be.

HOW SHOULD YOU PICK AN ESTATE AGENT IN GLASGOW?

When you decide which agent to go with you should firstly ask yourself who will you be working with? One of the fundamental things we promise all clients is that they will have one point of contact throughout the process. Rather than different departments within our business we appoint one person to handle your case from start to finish. If you feel like you can get along and work well with the person who is to handle your sale that will be half the battle – you should trust them and believe they are the best person for the job. If you dont feel this way about an agent you will always feel as if you have sold yourself short. Also beware of companies that send out a slick, credible, and likable valuer who signs you up and then passes you to an office junior from that point on.



SELL YOUR PROPERTY

Discover the true value of your property and avoid settling for less. Don’t pay inflated and unnecessary agency fees, pay a fixed fee and ensure you receive the service you need

ESTATE AGENCY COSTS

 

You should also think carefully on costs. Estate agency fees now vary so widely and asking how much an estate agency fee costs is a bit like asking how much a house costs. Think about what the agent will provide you and what they want to pay them for this. If the agent wants to charge you thousands of pounds because they have a shop window but will in truth generate all of your enquiries online, think about whether this is good value for money or not and if it’s a sincere offering. Also think about if the company is a remote online agency with little or no customer support in the selling process – This feeling will likely be very cheap but again think of it as good value for money.

    Lewis was my estate agent for my flat in Glasgow which I’ve just sold. It was on the market for 3 days before I accepted an offer. The selling process is stressful for sure but Lewis handled it well. At the first meeting, I didn’t believe Lewis when he gave me his thoughts on the price I would get for the property, I had to trust him and the process and sure enough, he was right and I was flabbergasted to say the least. I would highly recommend using them, so easy to deal with. No flashy sales brochures required, easy to communicate with and knows what’s going on in Glasgow with the prices of property (unlike me ha). Thank you Lewis.

    We can’t recommend Lewis Murphy highly enough. He’s been instrumental in helping us scale rapidly and is now managing a portfolio of 20 properties for us with complete professionalism. Lewis handles everything from tenant sourcing and compliance to ongoing maintenance and problem-solving, all with an incredible level of care and efficiency.

    What really sets him apart is his commitment - he genuinely treats each property as if it were his own. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and he’s become a trusted partner (and friend) along the way. He knows this game inside out, and our tenants love him also. Our properties are kept in tip top condition 247, 365 days of the year, and from a business point of view, our rents drop into our account as and when they are received with no issues.

    Thank you, Lewis - we couldn’t have done it without you!

    It has been a delight to meet Lewis and work with him. I feel very lucky to have him as my agent. He is both professional and considerate, which made me feel comfortable and at ease from the very beginning. Throughout the entire buying process, he answered all my questions promptly and kindly, whether by phone or email, with no delays. His responsiveness greatly facilitated communication between both parties. I highly recommend Lewis!
