QUIZ RESULTS

Selling via Estate Agent
is the right option for you

"

Thanks for completing the quiz!

Unfortunately, selling to a house buying company or via auction isn’t the right option for you.

House buying companies work like this:

  • They offer you a very fast, convenient sale…
  • ... But the downside is that they buy your house at a discount.

This allows them to cover all their costs and make a profit once they resell your home in the future.

Genuine companies buy property at around 80-85% of the market value.

Auctions work in a similar way; you get a faster sale, but there's a serious compromise on price.

In your responses, you indicated that getting the best price was more important to you than getting a fast sale, so house-buying companies or auction don't seem like the right option for you.

You also indicated that you're prepared to wait for your sale to go through. In general, the more time you have the higher the selling price you'll end up with. So the huge compromise you need to make for a house-buying company or auction doesn't make sense for you from that perspective either.

So how should I sell my house?

You indicated that you need to get the best possible price for your home. In most situations, the only way to achieve this is by selling your property with a good local estate agent.

I’ll have more guides coming soon to help walk you through how to do this. In the mean time, here are the best two resources I’d recommend:

I'm sorry the faster methods don't seem like the right option. It's a quicker sale, but it means a hit on the price that just doesn't work for your circumstances.

Hopefully this short quiz saved you a lot of time calling around though! 

I’ll be adding more guides to the website over time, so if there’s anything highly relevant to you I’ll keep you updated via email.

Thanks again, and good luck in your sale!
