How we sell your home, a step-by-step guide
So you have decided you want to sell your home, great! Now what?
The first thing you will need to do is choose the right estate agent for you and your home. If you want to know why you should choose Mediterranean Homes, here are a few reasons.
Valuation
The first thing we will do is arrange a suitable time to meet you and value your property. With over 30 years of collective experience in the field, selling all types of properties, we will come to a valuation that reflects the current market value and one that you are happy with.
We will collect all the information about your property, so we can answer any questions potential buyers have. We will also check the documentation with you, so we understand exactly what the legal status of your property is, enabling us to move forward accordingly with a potential buyer.
We will also go through your house offering suggestions on how to present your home to potential buyers, making it as appealing as possible.
Getting your house ready to put on the market
Once your house is ready we will arrange for our professional photographer to capture your home in its best possible light. We advise that you clear the clutter and make your home look as neutral as possible. Remember we want potential buyers to be able to imagine themselves living in the property, with their belongings, if your home is too cluttered it can be very distracting.
Our Photographer is also able to take aerial photographs using the latest drone technology. They will find the perfect angle of your home that will show how it fits into its surroundings. A birds-eye view is the best way to show the shape and size of your home, your garden or how much land you have and also what is located nearby.
3D Modelling and Virtual Tours
We also use a Matterport camera, capturing your home in 3D and enabling a virtual tour of the property. This is invaluable in showcasing your home as it allows potential buyers to be able to virtually walk around your home before even visiting. They can also view a floor plan and ‘Dollhouse’ view, so they can fully understand the layout and flow of your home.
Listing your property
Your home deserves to be described in a way that celebrates it, with descriptive and compelling words that will draw in the buyers, along with all essential details they need to know. We aren't just selling a building, we are selling homes, a safe space for families, a dream and our descriptions need to reflect that. We may also include descriptions of the local town and surroundings, giving the buyer a feel for the area they may be soon living in.
We then combine our descriptions with the best photos that have been carefully edited, virtual tours and floor plans to provide a complete showcase of your home.
Marketing
Your property will be marketed on our website, as well as over 700 member agents of the multi listing and 14 other portals which include Idealista, Kyero, Rightmove, Primelocation and Zoopla to name a few. We also know the best days of the week to upload your property to gain the most online views.
We have a large presence and following on Social Media which includes Instagram and Facebook. We post a variety of different content, including new listings, recent sales, enjoying life in Spain, interesting building projects and inspiring travels, so follow us and don’t miss out!
Viewings
When an enquiry comes in about your property, we take the time to ask the right questions. We won’t show your home to just anyone who calls up, we will make sure they are serious buyers and either have the funds ready to purchase your property, or have the relevant mortgages agreed in principle. We will also make sure the area is right for them and your home meets all their needs.
Life is short and no one has the time to waste showing properties that are not suitable for the buyer's requirements.
During a viewing, we are on hand to answer any questions and chat to the buyers about what they like about the property and what works for them and their needs. We also provide space so they can get a feel for the property on their own in a relaxed and friendly environment.
After a viewing, we provide honest and constructive feedback.
Offers and reservations
Once a buyer has fallen in love with your property the negotiations begin. We pride ourselves on clear and honest communication with quick responses until both parties are happy and agree on a final price.
We then draw up an initial reservation contract and take a deposit, only then can we remove the property from the market. The key is to move quickly to secure the property, especially as at the time of writing, properties are selling fast.
Completion
It’s then over to the solicitors to handle all the legal aspects.
We remain in contact with all parties ensuring the whole process is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Then it’s time to hand over the keys and celebrate!
