Deptford, London

The pros of selling your house or flat in Deptford fast

The experts at LDN Properties can help you sell your home fast in Deptford, a neighbourhood that’s on the River Thames’ south bank in the east London borough of Lewisham. This district’s long history includes being the location of the Deptford Dockyard from the mid-1500s until the late 1900s, which was the first major Royal Dockyard constructed for shipbuilding.

If you own a freehold or leasehold house or flat in this neighbourhood, consider getting in touch with us and ask about selling your home. We can give you a fair and speedy offer for buying your property, and can usually finalise the process within a few short weeks. That includes the time it takes to ensure you swiftly receive your proceeds from the sale, as well as completing all of the required legal paperwork for buying the property, including the exchange of contracts.

This is typically a much swifter schedule than selling your house through an estate agent or an auctioneer, which might take at least a couple of months. And one benefit of such a fast sale is that you won’t have to worry about the potential that a future negative change in the housing market might reduce the overall value and related sale price of your property. By selling fast, you’re more likely to get an offer that’s based on your home’s current value.

Another advantage of selling quickly is that you will accelerate your access to the proceeds from the sale, which can then be used to achieve whatever goal you had in mind when selling your home. Some of the many reasons why people sell their properties include needing funds for upsizing or downsizing to their next home, preventing repossession of their current property, paying for a move to somewhere else in the UK or perhaps overseas, and other explanations.

As a further benefit, we promise that you won’t have to pay us commission for buying your house or flat. Ever since we launched our speedy homebuying business 15+ years ago, we have provided a fast and reliable home buying service.

Questions to ask an estate agent when selling your Deptford home

When you’re ready to move house and sell your current property, you’ll have to decide between using a fast home buyer, an auctioneer, or an estate agent. The three different options have unique advantages compared to each other, and the right one will depend on your specific wants and needs.

One useful aspect of using an estate agent is that they’ll take care of the majority of work needed to sell your home, including creating and advertising a listing that describes your home and features photographs of it designed to make it appealing to potential buyers. They will also handle the scheduling and hosting of viewings where people will come to see the home.

Some property owners tell us they don’t like viewings as they take up a lot of time and can be quite intrusive. You might also have to wait a number of months, or possibly even more than a full year, before receiving a genuine offer from a buyer. And as described above, you’ll also have to pay the estate agent commission in the event that you are able to sell your home.

Should you still be interested in using an estate agent to sell your home, we recommend calling several companies and asking some of the below questions. These queries, along with our insight into what the answers could reveal, might be useful in determining whether you still want to try finding a buyer through an estate agent or if you’d like to use an alternate method.

What price do you think you’ll be able to get when selling my home?

Some estate agents will give you an overly optimistic price because they are eager to get your business selling your home, even if they truly know that a sale will only happen at a lower price. By asking this question to multiple estate agents you can take an average of the quotes that you receive and find out a more realistic price for your property before you sell it.

What is the rate of commission you’ll charge me for selling my property?

Another critical question, because the fees that estate agents can charge often vary based on your home’s final sale value, but might be higher or lower with certain companies. You need to know the level of commission before you sell your property, so that you can develop an accurate budget for the sale and ensure you’ll still make a profit.
