Why sell your property with Placefinders and not with our competitors?

NO SALE NO FEE

If we don't sell your property don't pay us. You don't part with no money until we have sold your property (exchange of contracts). We pay for the advertising of your property. We pay for the marketing of your property. We pay for our negotiators time to sell your property. If we don't sell your property we loose our money not yours.

The best form of advertising that guarantees a 100% return is personal recommendation. At Placefinders our philosophy is based around what we call the 3 R's. REMEMBER US; RECOMMEND US, RETURN TO US. Why will you remember us? Why will you recommend us? Why will you return to us? The only way you will do that is if we conduct our selves professionally with total accountability not passing the buck and run our business honestly and with the highest of integrity.

So what do you get?
Whether you are selling or wanting to rent your property with Placefinders our package comes in two parts. Selling and Service.


How do we sell your property?

FREE VALUATION AND APPRAISAL OF YOUR PROPERTY WITH ABSOLUTELY NO OBLIGATION

Valuing a property is not an exact science. There is no formula to follow. But at Placefinders it is not just an opinion plucked out of the sky. We base our valuation  on a number of criteria to place your property at the head of the market. Some of the factors we look at are

 

  • Market demand from purchasers.
  • What prices have been achieved for properties similar to yours, which have been recently sold in your neighbourhood
  • The condition of your property.
  • Current Sales prices of similar properties in your neighbourhood.
  • How popular is your area, schools, transport what facilities are near by?
  • What improvements have been carried out to the property e.g., new kitchen, bathroom, extension.
  • Do improvements need to be done.

 

A competitively priced property puts your property at the top of the market, means more enquiries, means more viewings = more offers on your property.

PROPERTY DETAILS

Your property will be featured with full Colour photographs taken externally and of all internal rooms, incorporated both into your property particulars and web pages Details will be typed upon receiving your instructions and a copy made available to you within 24 hours, prepared with both imperial and metric measurements.. We aim to describe your property accurately and to its best potential, these details will then be presented to the applicants on our extensive mailing list.

No more phoning people one at time.
At Placefinders we use the latest information technology available. Our database of purchasers matches and sends the details of your property to interested purchasers however many there are at a press of a button. Placefinders ' ability to contact more people at once means that we can generate immediate interest in your property. More responses, means more viewings = more offers on your property.

VIRTUAL TOURS

Placefinders  offers you a Virtual Tour of each and every room in you property, however small. We are one of the first and only estate agents in Reading and one of the first in Great Britain to offer this service to our clients whether you are selling or renting your properties through us. We have purchased the latest software technology that allows us to take one shot 360 degree Virtual Tours. Thus for the first time allowing home hunters to walk through your property and view on line, on our website 24hrs of the day, 7 days of the week, 365 days of year.

Not only will your property be promoted on our state of the art website but also on all the major property search engines.

So what??? I hear you say. Here's what, think about this!! We all live busy lives. Purchasers don't have time to go traipsing around looking at 20 properties in the hope of finding a property you may or may not like. But if you have been able to view the property from the comfort of your home or office already, when you make an appointment to view the property it's for a second viewing. The first viewing has been online. So they come to view your property, they are not thinking "Oh I wonder if this is going to be any good??" They are thinking I like this property. They have imagined their belongings already in the property. This could be their new home. They could be putting an offer in on this property. That is why Placefinders invests in the latest technology to sell your property.
More responses, means more viewings = more offers on your property.

Services:

We at Placefinders know and appreciate that selling your home, uprooting your life and your loved ones is one of the most stressful processes you will go through in your life. Our promise to you is .We will be there from the start right in the thick of it to the finish. (When you hand the keys to us to give to the owner)

When you offer us your property to sell the first thing we do is send you what we call a Vendor care pack. Its sole purpose is to be of service to you, to help make the process of selling you property run as smoothly and effortlessly as possible. It covers topics such as:

 

  • Preparing to market your property
  • Dealing with offers
  • Appointing a solicitor
  • Things you need to do after you've sold your property. (On exchange of contracts)

 

VIEWINGS

When purchasers want to view your property we will always check with you that it is convenient before we confirm the viewing.

So that you can remain at arms length and carry on with your business, we will always send one of our experienced Sales Negotiators to show your property to its best advantage and help turn viewings into offers.

Feedback
First thing the next morning you will get feed back from the previous days viewings whether it be positive or negative.

OFFERS

By law we have to inform you of what offers have been put forward.

Once we have achieved an offer satisfactory to yourself, at Placefinders your point of contact from the start of the process (when offer been accepted) until the process concludes (when we contact you to congratulate you on the completion of the sale of your property) will be the negotiator who brokered the agreeable offer between the you and the purchaser. You and the purchaser will have meet at the viewing and have started developing a relationship through the offer process with that negotiator. At Placefinders our property doesn't get passed onto a faceless 'sales progression department' who nine times out of ten has no concept of sales or customer service. The easiest part is getting the offer. Where we earn our money is seeing the sale through to completion.

How dedicated are we to Customer Service

What you think, how you rate us is very very important to the company directors, and employers of. Placefinders. As professional independent estate agents we aim to provide a comprehensive service at competitive rates of commission. We will contact you at key stages of the sale of you property so you can rate our service. At any time if you are not happy with the level of service you are getting the Company Directors will be available to champion your concerns. Why do we care ???

WE WANT YOU TO REMEMBER US. WE WANT YOU TO RECOMMEND US. WE WANT YOU TO RETURN TO US.
