Helpful Information
What is an Estate Agent?
Estate agents act as brokers to sell other people’s homes. Essentially they are there to facilitate contact between the sellers and potential buyers. With each house sale, they take a commission. The bigger the sale and the higher the price, the bigger their commissions. They may charge other fees for administration, listing and viewings. The role of an Estate Agent can be summed up in the following points:
- To get suitable properties onto the housing market and reach as many potential buyers as possible.
- To liaise with sellers in presenting their property in the best possible light to attract sales.
- To represent saleable properties to potential buyers fairly and honestly.
- To negotiate the sale at the best possible price.
- To progress the sale through to a successful conclusion in the fastest possible time.
How do I choose an Estate Agent?
In Britain, unlike most other countries, anyone can set up as an estate agent, they need neither qualification nor training. A good estate agent will help to make the buying/ selling process stress-free and advantageous for all parties, a bad one can cause misery through malpractice bordering on fraud. Before placing your most valuable asset in the hands of a stranger, think through the following points:
- Reputation: Is the Estate Agent a member of any national bodies such as the Ombudsman for Estate Agents (OEA), The Property Redress Scheme (PRS), the National Association of Estate Agents, or The Guild of Professional Estate Agents?
- Conduct: Has the company published a professional code of conduct or best practice? Ask to see this. If they are a member of the OEA then they must follow a pre-set code of practice.
- Insurance: Estate Agents must be insured to accept any deposits and receipts must be given. Client deposits must be kept in a separate client bank or building society account, as set out in the Estate Agents Regulations.
- Local Knowledge: Is this Estate Agent a local specialist? Only agents with excellent local knowledge and connections will be able to advise clients in an informed manner.
- National Advertising: How will the Estate Agent advertise your house to the widest possible audience? Do they publish a magazine, and if so how many and how often? Do they publish properties on professional-looking, functional websites as well as in-house and are they part of a wider network of agencies that liaise with one another to maximise coverage?
