Receiving an offer.
This is where your choice of agent really makes a difference!
Receiving an offer for your property is of no value until
the quality of that offer has been established.
Is the person making the offer in a position to buy?
Can they obtain a mortgage?
Are they dependent on a related sale? If they are, how far
(if at all) has that sale progressed?
If their own property has yet to be sold, what are the chances
of selling it?
Can they afford to pay more than they are offering?
Accepting a full price offer from someone who will never
be in a position to exchange contracts is a waste of your
time.
Remember, you will be paying your chosen agent to use their
best endeavours and negotiating skills to achieve the best
possible price for you.
An agent who acts simply as a messenger between you and a
prospective buyer is not doing their job.
