Request free valuations from at least three agents. In RH11 7, where asking prices range from £281,000 to £550,000 depending on the agent's specialism, you'll receive different perspectives on your property's market value. Don't automatically choose the highest valuation - examine their comparable evidence.
Understand whether agents charge percentage-based fees (typical for high-street agents) or fixed fees (common for online agents). Remember that the lowest fee isn't always best - consider what services are included and the agent's track record in your specific area of RH11 7.
Understand the terms before signing. Most sole agency agreements run for 8-16 weeks. Multi-agency agreements typically charge higher fees (usually +0.5-1%) but allow you to instruct multiple agents simultaneously. Consider whether you want exclusivity or the option to switch if results aren't forthcoming.
Once you've chosen your agent, prepare your property for market. Ensure you have necessary surveys completed, such as an RICS Level 2 survey which is standard for properties in typical condition, or a Level 3 survey if your property is older or has known issues. Quality photographs and accurate descriptions will help your agent market effectively.

One-bedroom flats average £183,779 across 9 listings, while four-bedroom properties at £469,357 across 7 listings and five-bedroom homes at £533,750 across 4 listings represent the premium end of the market where competition is less fierce.
If you're selling a three-bedroom property in RH11 7, the high volume of similar properties on the market means presentation and pricing are critical.

In a competitive market where your property is likely to attract multiple viewings, you have leverage to negotiate downwards, especially if you're also using the same agent for rental services or if you're a returning client.
