Top facts to learn about the town of Ilford in London’s Redbridge borough

Ilford, which is part of the east London borough of Redbridge, is a neighbourhood where LDN Properties can make fast and fair offers for buying all sizes and shapes of freehold and leasehold houses and flats. It’s town with a good mix of commercial and residential property and a lengthy history, and there are many top facts to learn about this part of London:

• The town can trace its past to at least the 11th century with a mention in a major survey of land in England and Wales known as the Domesday Book of 1086
• Ilford’s name was originally Ilefort, which was an old name for a "ford over the River Hyle, " which was the previous name for the area’s River Roding
• The neighbourhood was mostly rural until it saw economic development starting in the 18th century with the building of coal yards, brickworks and cement works
• One local landmark is the nearby Valentines Mansion, which was constructed as a private residence in 1696 and later used as local council offices

Estate agents who might be able to sell your Ilford flat or house

Another option for selling your Ilford property is to use an estate agent, and this can have certain pros. For example, an estate agent takes on the hard work of marketing your home, along with scheduling and leading viewings for interested buyers to tour the property. Still, some homeowners have said that they find viewings to be time-consuming and quite intrusive.

But they expect to be paid for this effort, and they usually charge commission as a percentage of your home’s final price. This can be a major disadvantage for those owners needing to maximise their profit when selling.

Selling through an estate agent can also be a lengthy process, and it’s not unheard of for some properties to not receive a serious offer from a buyer for many months or even a full year. That’s far from ideal if your goal when selling your home is to find a buyer as fast as possible.

If you’re thinking about using an estate agent, you should also do some research in advance by searching for specific company names online.
