Estate Agents

Are you selling your property at the right price?
Are you paying too much for your new home?
What are house prices like in your street?

A glance at your local high street will almost certainly reveal a choice of different estate agents serving the area.

Traditionally, estate agents were always the first, and often only, port of call for anyone interested in buying and selling property. With their experience of buying and selling homes, and their knowledge of the local property market, estate agents are still a good source of information about current property prices.

Since the growth of the Internet, however, estate agents are no longer the only option for those entering the property market. A number of websites now offer you a way to advertise, buy and sell property without using an agent – and so to avoid the substantial fees that they charge. And, of course, MyPropertySpy brings you a new way to establish the right price for your property – based on the facts of real sold house prices.

The role of estate agents has changed in today's market. Where once they were seen as simply the way to match buyers with properties, now you should expect advice on how to present your home for sale, and proactive marketing of properties to potential buyers.

Even if you decide to use the services of estate agents, you can now take a more active role in researching the local property market for yourself. By using MyPropertySpy, you'll be able to find out facts that your estate agent can't tell you!
