Valuations

Valuing your property accurately can dramatically affect how quickly and smoothly the sale of your home can go through.

Too high, and you won’t get any interest. Too low, and you risk losing out on profit. So how do you know what’s the right property value on your home? We’ll help you find out. And here’s why we’re qualified to do it:

• We’re local experts. After years of buying and selling property in Chandlers Ford, there’s no one better placed to sell in the local area.
• Since opening in 2003, we’ve sold more property in Chandlers Ford than any other agent, meaning we have a great grasp of the market.
• We carry out on average 100 viewings every week, which gives us an unrivalled insight into what property is currently on offer, and what buyers are prepared to pay.
• We can quickly determine the good and not so good points of every property, and find out where this places you in the marketplace.
• We’re experienced in the industry. Every single member of our team is a property professional, and takes their job very seriously – our valuations are based on knowledge.
• We don’t just give you a local view. Our team are constantly researching the Land Registry and properties across the UK to discover trends, findings and more that affect the property market as a whole.
• We offer a completely balanced view. We are always open and honest, as we recognise that this is the best and most effective way of conducting our relationship with you.
• Our valuations are thought through and discussed fully in our daily sales meeting, where it’s put against comparable evidence, recent property sold and competitor analysis.

And a final word of warning on valuations… don’t be flattered by agents giving you an unrealistically high valuation to get you on their books, or those out to make a quick buck. Look at similar properties to yours nearby. Is yours really likely to break the ceiling price? If your property is priced high, you won’t get viewings, and your estate agent will simply recommend dropping the price in a few weeks’ time. This can have a very detrimental effect for you, as evidence shows that you’re more likely to have to accept a lower amount for your property if it’s been on the market for a long time.
