Selling a property is not something that people do on a daily
basis hence they may not be as familiar with it or as comfortable
with the process as they would like. After all, most people, may
only do it a few times in their entire lifetime.
The property market does attract a lot of interest for a number of
reasons and we seem to be forever talking about it even though
we rarely engage in it. The reason there is so much interest is that
firstly it’s a sort of barometer of the economy in general. When the
economy is flourishing so is the property market and vice versa.
The other reason is the fact that for most people, it is the biggest
single asset or investment they are likely to make in their lifetime.
It’s also intrinsically tied to where they live, their lifestyle, their
friends, family, clubs and the activities they may enjoy. It can also
reflect their financial wellbeing.
When it comes to the decision to sell, it can have a major impact
on people’s lives and financial situation. So the last thing they
need is more concern, confusion, pressure or stress to add to the
process.
People sell for any number of reasons.
Often it’s simply a change of circumstances — a growing family
needing more room, an ageing couple needing to be closer to
facilities or downsizing, a job transfer, or a desire for a change of
lifestyle or location. Some move to facilitate a better education
for their children, or be closer to children and/or grandchildren,
maybe they just want a better home or it may be a financial
decision.
People decide to sell for any number of reasons, but what they all
want is a process that delivers the maximum realistic price at the
lowest realistic cost, with minimal stress and disruption.
