A way that i discovered to sell my house online that paid dividends.
When you choose to sell your property online or buy online it is worth considering the following points. With a few of the more customer responsive sites you are able to position the details of your private home sale straight onto the page that your property is being displayed this means that if you are a bit of a night owl or work through out the day you are able to change your details as and when you feel like it rather than fitting in with the site owners schedule. This makes sure that you can change your information at any time be it sizes, descriptions or more importantly the price of your house. Normally there is some form of waver saying that the information is all provided by the property owner and doesn?t necessarily contain the complete particulars.
When you are measuring up, ensure you give clear descripions of what dimensions you are giving, from a buyers viewpoint it is always worth questioning anything you are unsure of and most private sellers are more than pleased to answer any queries. The website that a property is being shown on will not have carried out a appraisal on the house and it will normally be upto the buyer to have a surveyors report done on the property before exchanging contracts. Always use a qualified contractor to test the appliances and equipment in a property, this will allow you to negotiate price if something is wrong. As a seller it is worth having any service information to hand to enable you to barter for a better price. Ensure you employ a solicitor to look into all legal matters relating to the house (e.g. title, tenure, planning permission etc) as these are specialist issues that will not be sorted out by websites. A solicitor also sorts out with the seller what things (e.g. carpets, curtains, fixtures & fittings, sheds etc) will or will not be built into the sale.
In other words, you should verify for yourself all information before acting on it, in particular the current asking price, sizes of rooms, ownership, freehold, extent of refurbishments and any issues of specific consequence to you.
