Frequently asked questions
What is Sellmyhome.co.uk?
Founded in 2010, Sellmyhome.co.uk was born out of a desire to give you more choice when it comes to selling your home, and importantly, save you money along the way. We’ve believed for a long time that the sales process could be improved and streamlined, and that’s exactly what we have done.
Our service enables you to choose how much control you wish to have in the sales process, along with the amount of money you wish to spend on marketing your home to prospective buyers.
We truly believe that our service will provide you with a cost effective and transparent solution to selling your home
What do you do?
We provide all the services that you would expect from a high street estate agent, including valuation, professional floorplans and photos, arranging viewings and helping negotiate the sale of your home with buyers.
How are you different from a high street estate agent?
The main difference from Sellmyhome.co.uk and a high street agent is the cost. Because we are based online, we don’t have the need for multiple branches and lots of cars cluttering up the roads. As a result, our overhead costs are considerably less, meaning we can pass on these considerable savings to our customers.
Secondly, our customers can decide how much control they want to have over the sales process, and how much they can afford to spend. This is why selling through selllmyhome.co.uk is more transparent.
How can you be sure that my home is being seen by potential buyers?
With the exposure on some of the UK's biggest property portals such as Primelocation.com, Findaproperty.com, Zoopla.com and Globrix.com (to name but a few), we can guarantee that your home will be seen by thousands of prospective buyers.
Additionally, we offer a range of marketing tools, such as For Sale signs, brochures, professional floor plans and photos.
How long can I market my home on sellmyhome.co.uk?
You can market your home on sellmyhome.co.uk for up to a year, for no additional cost. If you wish to remove your property from the site, but add it again at a later date, then please contact us at info@sellmyhome.co.uk
Will I need to sign a contract?
No, you won’t need to sign a contract when using Sellmyhome.co.uk, for the simple reason that we don’t think they are necessary.
Do you manage and handle viewings?
Yes we do. Our service is designed to make all aspects of the sale as efficient as possible, including viewings. We arrange all viewings for you, and depending on which package you sign up for, you conduct the viewings yourself. Because no one knows your home as well as you do, it makes perfect sense for you to show potential buyers around your home. However, if this is not for you, we do offer a comprehensive viewing service.
Will you negotiate my sale?
We offer all the services you would expect from a high street estate agent. Our aim is to find you the right offer, from the right buyer. As a result, we take measures to establish the exact situation of every buyer who registers with us. As a result, you can confidently enter into an agreement with the buyer that best suits your circumstances
What if my home is currently for sale with a local agent?
We are registered estate agents ourselves, so it depends on the contract you have signed. If it is a sole agency, you will have to change this to either a joint or multiple agreement, or give notice according to the terms in the contract, to switch to us. We will not increase our fees if you are with another agency, but they tend to increase theirs.
