In this Episode Ken & Glen get to grill an estate agent, Dan Elliott from Elliott & Smith Estate Agents.
Some great questions from you our listeners for Dan to answer such as.
- What is an estate agent and what do they do and offer?How do estate agents come up with the valuation figure
for houses when they visit them?
- What should you expect from your estate agent as a
customer? What service should the customer expect and what platforms are used
to promote the property?
- How do estate agents calculate the fees ? And when do they become payable?
- Have you seen a drop or an increase in the property
market in the last 3/6 months?
- Have you seen an impact on buyers since the mortgage rates have gone up but now slowly coming back down?
- Why do some agents have different contract lengths?
- Do you think people should consider the smaller independent estate agents more so than the big corporate well know names as
generally in many cases the fees are lower and more personal service?
- Should a customer put their house on the market before they start putting offers in and viewing properties and why?
As always we do not hold back and we look forward to you sending us in more questions for next weeks Q&A Episode.
