The time to sell varies depending on property type, pricing, and market conditions. Properties priced realistically based on comparable local sales tend to attract stronger interest within the first few weeks of marketing. Working with an agent who has strong local knowledge and effective marketing can significantly reduce time on market. Our data shows the most active agents achieve regular viewings and offers for properly priced properties. Overpriced properties can stagnate, so securing an accurate valuation from the outset is crucial for a timely sale.

Online estate agents like Yopa, which has active listings in Dundee, offer lower fixed fees typically between £999 and £1,999. However, you'll be responsible for conducting viewings, handling buyer inquiries, and negotiating directly. Traditional agents provide more comprehensive service but at higher percentage-based fees. The choice depends on your time availability, confidence in handling sales negotiations, and budget. For properties requiring active marketing campaigns or those in competitive segments, traditional agents often deliver better results through their established networks and professional marketing resources. ---NEXT---

While not legally required when selling, a survey can identify issues that might affect your sale or cause problems during conveyancing. In Dundee, with its significant stock of older properties and 900-plus listed buildings, understanding your property's condition is valuable. A RICS Level 2 survey typically costs between £400 and £800, representing 0.1-0.3% of most property values, and can highlight issues that might otherwise emerge during the buyer's survey. For Victorian and Edwardian properties common in the West End and Broughty Ferry, we often recommend more detailed surveys given the age and construction methods typical of these periods. ---NEXT---
