Accurate Valuation

Your aim should be to sell your property at the best price in the shortest time possible. We carry out many valuations every month, giving us unparalleled knowledge of local property values.

Choosing an Estate Agent

You can’t beat word of mouth, so ask friends, family and neighbours who have moved recently about their experiences. 

Create a shortlist of local Estate Agents – what professional bodies do they belong to? Some key names to look out for are the Ombudsman for Estate Agents (OEA), the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA).

Pay them a visit – check out their premises, is the office clean and professional? Do they have well presented property displays in the window? Ask to see examples of property details so you can see what yours will potentially look like.

Narrow down your list to approximately three agents who you want to invite to carry out a valuation.   The highest valuation is not necessarily the best, as an over-priced house will not sell!

Instructing a solicitor

The successful sale of your property can be reliant on the instruction of an efficient and experienced solicitor.  It is a good idea to do some research and make a decision before you put your property on the market as this will help to avoid delays.  We can certainly offer recommendations if required.

Presenting your Property

As the saying goes, first impressions really do count! Consider any DIY jobs you have been putting off, add a fresh coat of paint where necessary and try to de-clutter to make rooms appear larger. 

Marketing your Property

You need to give your property maximum exposure across a wide range of media.
When you instruct Evans Roach to sell your property you will benefit from our comprehensive marketing package including exposure not only on our website but also full colour property details, floor plans, full colour advertising in the Western Telegraph’s Pembrokeshire Homes Supplement as well as promoting your property on a wide range of property websites to include Rightmove, Prime Location, Zoopla to name but a few!

Receiving an Offer

As soon as an offer is received on your property, we will notify you both verbally and in writing.  Any special conditions of the offer will also be stated in writing and we will check the buyer’s ability to proceed before you decide whether to accept the offer.

Once you accept an offer, we will do the following:
Ask you to confirm your solicitor’s details
Prepare a Memorandum of sale

We will advise you and negotiate on your behalf throughout this process, keeping you informed each and every step of the way.

Exchange of Contracts

Exchange of contracts occurs when the following have been confirmed and agreed:

• Preliminary enquiries following receipt of the draft contract
• Evidence of a good Title
• Local search queries
• Specific issues highlighted in the Lease, if applicable
• Fixtures and fittings to be included in the sale
• The buyer’s mortgage offer

Once the contract has been signed by both parties the deposit (usually 10% of the purchase price) will be telegraphically transferred or paid in the form of a banker’s draft.

Completion is when the residual monies (usually 90%) are transferred from the buyer’s solicitor to your solicitor’s account.

Your solicitor will call you when the money has cleared in your account and will inform us to release the keys.

Congratulations, you have now sold your property!
