Make your probate property stand out
FLYING in the face of conventional housing market wisdom, a new report says that for the last three years 20% more homes were sold in August than any other month.
The report from sales and letting firm KIS is based on analysis of land registry figures between 2011 and 2014.
“Traditionally January and September are viewed as top selling months but this latest research suggests otherwise,” says Simon Bennett, group account director for probate property sales specialists and our e-newsletter sponsors, Executor Solutions.
“With more properties historically sold in August than any other month, it’s essential for probate solicitors to ensure their properties stand out from the crowd.
“That’s where Executor Solutions can help. We’re experts in the field and will take care of the whole process from valuation to legal completion. Rather than rely on one estate agent, we’ll market it with three agents and keep the pressure on them all to perform.
“We’ll ensure marketing materials are tip-top, including high quality photography, and we’ll make sure that agents show the property off professionally by arriving before the clients and preparing the home for viewing, eg. moving post from behind the front door and switching on lights.
“Our track record speaks for itself – we secure sales for 80% of all properties within the first four weeks.”
Executor Solutions will also ensure fortnightly inspections are carried out on vacant properties and can deal with other issues such as insurance, lock changes, house clearance and general property maintenance.
