Sales Information

www.daisychainuk.co.uk

Sales InformationAs an introduction to this guide it is worth remembering that your home is probably the largest single investment that you will ever make. Moving home isn’t complicated but it can be a daunting prospect. In recognising this daisychain realise that homeowners need an estate agent they can trust. They need one that will look after their interests and make selling their home as stress free as is reasonably possible.

If you are thinking of selling or buying your home, come and talk to us. Our successful procedure is as follows:

After visiting your home for a preliminary assessment, and having discussed your requirements thoroughly, we will fully research the market, advise on and agree an asking price with a tailored marketing strategy. Full colour particulars of your property, including a floor plan, will then be prepared for your approval along with instruction to proceed.

We will arrange for an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to be produced for your property, if required. You will meet the cost of preparing this unless otherwise agreed.

We will then telephone our vast list of prospective buyers to advise them about the property before they receive either emailed or posted particulars.

daisychain advertise to the widest possible audience utilising cutting edge and traditional methods to market your property, including internet advertising to local, national and international buyers. We also advertise extensively in the local property press as well as in national publications and specific property related press and the local radio.

If you are considering selling or letting your home, why not

choose our company to carry out a free market appraisal of your property? We are confident that

you will like what we have to say. We believe in transparency in

our business and we are always interested to hear your feedback whether it’s positive or negative.

Our aim is to achieve the best possible price for your property in a timeframe to suit your needs.

Generally speaking, daisychain believe the best advice is to place your own home on the market before you start looking for a property to buy:

• Doing so has many benefits with the primary reason being that both estate agents and vendors will take you far more seriously.

• Once you know how much someone is prepared to pay for your property, you will know how much you can afford to pay for your new home.

• Any offer you make on your next property is unlikely to be accepted until your own property is under offer.

• When under offer, you are able to proceed and are more likely to be able to negotiate more favourable terms on your next purchase.

• Normally the first customers that an estate agent contacts are those who are in the strongest buying position.

• Never forget that even if you have found a buyer you do not have to move if you do not find anything suitable to purchase.

Keep missing out on your dream home?

This is a problem that many buyers face particularly in recent years when there have been fewer properties coming to the market place.

The dilemma – You want to move home but every time a property comes to the market that you are interested in, it is sold to a buyer in a stronger position whilst you are still thinking about what you need to do to sell your own home! We know how frustrating this can be for our clients but we can help…

The solution – We get everything ready so that your property can be marketed at the touch of a button. We take photographs, prepare the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and floor plan as well as proofs for window card and brochure and sign you up on a flexible transparent agency agreement, with no contract tie ins.

You are then ready to go and if the right property comes along our team of experts will market your property immediately and effectively to find you a buyer so that you can make an offer on your dream home as quickly as possible.

Call us today to find out more about our unique and confidential services or to book your free, no obligation, appraisal with one of our local market experts.

It couldn’t be easier

Low profile service

Privacy is very important to some of our clients and it is something that we are very respectful of at daisychain. You want to sell your home but don’t want the whole world to know about it. Our “in house” marketing strategy is an effective way of finding a buyer for your home without advertising your property anywhere!

We keep full details of your property available in our offices and introduce carefully selected buyers only once we are certain that they are genuinely serious and have proven affordability. It may be that you are not even certain that you want to sell your property unless a suitable offer is made but our low profile option gives you a chance to test the market in near complete secrecy so that not even your neighbours need know.

We are careful to ensure that we build strong relationships with registered buyers so we will know when to mention low profile properties to them that meet their criteria.

Buy to Let

More and more people are investing in property and with good reason! The potential growth on the buy to let property market is indicated by the following forecast from the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA): “ARLA expects that the private rental sector will grow from its current level of around 11% of the housing market to approximately 20% in the year 2020.”

We often have a wide range of properties available for sale that are current landlord disposals. They can be available and being marketed for sale but they are also often “low key” properties that we will only be holding details of in our offices.

Buying a property that is already let can be an attractive proposition for many landlords as it can provide you with an immediate return on your investment from day one. This means more often than not that you will receive a rental payment on the day of completion. It doesn’t get any better than that! Existing landlords sell for lots of different reasons but the most common is that the property has done its work for them and they are simply capitalising on an investment that they made many years earlier. If you are looking for your first investment property or simply just wishing to add to your portfolio, please contact your nearest office and we will be delighted to advise and assist you. Or, if you would like financial advice to see if property investment suits your requirements, please ask a member of staff and they will put you in touch with an independent financial advisor.

Landlord Property Sales

We also specialise in selling properties that are already let to other landlords. If you are a landlord with a tenant in situ and you would like to sell the rented property, please speak to a member of our sales team. We are very respectful when dealing with tenants and considerate when arranging viewings. From the tenants’ point of view, having a new landlord can save them having to move home which has obvious benefits.

Perhaps you are considering becoming a landlord? Why not visit our website for tips on buy to let and lots of other information to help you decide whether property is the right investment for you.

Buying a property that is already let can be quite appealing as the return on the investment is immediate from the day the sale completes.

Our commitment to you

Managing your saleAt daisychain our responsibilities to our clients do not stop with securing a buyer. In many ways this is just the beginning, and the start of a very important process. Once a buyer has been qualified we will liaise and work alongside solicitors, the purchasers, mortgage lenders or brokers and other estate agents involved in the chain. We will maintain good relations between the buyer and seller as well as accurately documenting each stage of the transaction, keeping you informed of progress at all times.

ValuesIt is important to stress that the leading edge computer technology is firmly balanced with old-fashioned traditional values of courtesy and always putting the client first. Buyers and sellers are individuals with their own unique requirements. daisychain staff are our biggest asset with the experience to provide a first class and professional property service.

Contact/Communications Our services are based on a high degree of client contact and positive feedback has resulted in many recommendations, letters of appreciation and repeat business from buyers and sellers. All buyers and sellers are kept fully informed as to the current progress of their property transaction from the point of initial contact through to the completion of the sale.

ComplianceWhen choosing an estate agent to sell your home you may think that all agents are the same. We respectfully ask you to think again, as although daisychain belong to a professional body with rules and a code of conduct, not all agents do. As most people’s home is their biggest asset, it makes sense to deal with an agent in the knowledge that they are professional, accountable and experienced enough to act on your behalf. As an established and independent estate agent, daisychain believe in giving good, honest advice and our primary goal is to act in the best interest of our client which, as the seller, is you.

The Property Ombudsman As part of our commitment to deliver the highest levels of service to our clients we are working towards becoming members of The Property Ombudsman (TPO). This ensures that daisychain’s clients are assured of an efficient service and, in the unlikely event that we get something wrong, the TPO provides an independent redress of the situation with the power to award compensation for complete peace of mind.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) From October 2008, if you are looking to sell or rent your property you are now required, by law, to provide an EPC. An EPC gives information to home owners tenants and buyers on how energy efficient the property in question is and what carbon dioxide emissions the property is releasing. Th e EPC also provides information on how to improve its energy efficiency and how to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions. daisychain can arrange for your EPC to be produced and issued by a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor. A small charge is generally applicable for this at the time of instruction.

ConveyancingOnce a buyer is found for you, it is very important that the transaction goes through as quickly and as smoothly as possible. With this in mind, we can recommend solicitors and conveyancers who we know will get the job done with maximum efficiency. We can arrange a quotation for you with a breakdown of all the likely fees and costs and this can even be done before marketing commences.

Mortgages*With so many lenders and mortgage products on offer it can be very time-consuming making sure that you are getting the best possible deal to suit your circumstances and requirements. Please let us know if you would like any help, as we will definitely be able to save you time and possibly money in researching the market. Our contacts in the mortgage market are fully qualified experts and there is no obligation or fee for an initial introduction. Anyone we recommend will be completely independent and will be able to provide you with totally honest, impartial advice for all mortgage products and services from all the lenders.

*Please remember that your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up payments on your mortgage.

Surveys If you are buying a property you may wish to seek peace of mind by having an in-depth survey carried out. We can put you in touch with a professional firm of chartered surveyors who can discuss the different types of surveys or inspections that are available.

Fees daisychain’s terms of business are strictly performance related and therefore operate on a ‘No Sale No Fee’ basis. Our fees are competitive and are calculated as a percentage of the eventual selling price of the property and are only due upon the successful exchange of contracts of your sale, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
