Step 2Select an estate agent
Your estate agent should have a strong high street presence as well as the ability to support you with the latest technology.
My Foxtons provides greater transparency, speed and efficiency when it comes to selling your property.
Step 4Property presentation
First impressions count, making the presentation of your property critical to a successful sale.
Consider addressing any DIY jobs you have been meaning to get done, add a fresh coat of paint where necessary and try to declutter to make rooms appear larger.
Foxtons' team of dedicated professional photographers will then take photographs and produce floor plans in just one visit.
Step 5Find a buyer
To find a suitable buyer your property requires maximum exposure across a wide range of media.
When you Instruct Foxtons to sell your property you will benefit from our unrivalled, comprehensive marketing package, including: exposure on our website, email & SMS alerts, promotion on property websites like Rightmove and Zoopla and representation by our local offices.
Step 6Accompanied viewings
Accompanied viewings mean we can use our expertise to help sell your property or flat.
Our longer opening hours are essential to maximise viewing opportunities for your property.
Step 7Receive offers
As soon as a buyer makes an offer we will contact you to communicate full details, plus any special conditions, to help you decide whether or not to accept.
You can also view and track all offers within My Foxtons at any time.
Step 8Accept an offer
Once you accept an offer we will do the following:
Prepare a memorandum of sale
Confirm the agreed price with all parties
Ask you to confirm your solicitor's details
Your solicitor will send out a draft contract to the buyer's solicitor who will then carry out preliminary enquiries. At this stage you will also be able to agree on dates for the survey on your property, the exchange of contracts and proposed date for completion.
We will advise you and negotiate on your behalf throughout this process. There are no legal obligations until contracts are signed.
Step 9Completion
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, your property is now sold!
