Start your journey with a clear understanding of your finances and the right advice from day one. Whether you’re a first time buyer, an experienced investor, or looking to sell your current home, navigating the financial side of property can be complex.That’s why we always recommend speaking with an independent financial adviser. They’ll work alongside you to make sure you’re fully prepared, properly informed, and in the strongest possible position to move when the right opportunity comes up.

If you’re thinking about selling, it starts with choosing the right estate agent. At ACREA, we’ll help you get your property market ready and positioned properly from day one.Having your home on the market, or even better, sold, puts you in a much stronger position when the right property comes up. It means you can move quickly, avoid missing out, and search with a clear budget in mind, without the uncertainty of still needing to sell in the background.

Decide on the areas you’d love to live in and make sure you’re registered with the right estate agents as well as the main portals.This way, you’ll be first to hear about new listings and price changes, keeping you one step ahead in a fast moving market. It also means you’re seeing the best opportunities as soon as they come up, not after everyone else already has.

Now for the exciting part, viewings. Take the time to see a range of properties so you can properly compare and get a feel for what’s right for you.No home is ever perfect, it’s about finding one that ticks the most boxes and feels right when you walk through the door. It’s also worth understanding the seller’s position, as their timeline can play a big part in how well everything lines up for you.

Take your time when it comes to making an offer, it’s one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make. Be clear on what you want to offer and, just as importantly, why.Set yourself a walk away price before you start negotiating so you stay in control and don’t get carried away in the moment. We will guide you through this, making sure your offer is well positioned and gives you the best possible chance without overpaying.

Once your offer is accepted, it’s time to get things moving. Instruct your solicitor and update your financial adviser so everything is in place from the outset.From here, the agent will work closely with all parties to keep the sale progressing, alongside both sets of solicitors. The legal side, known as conveyancing, covers everything from enquiries and contracts through to searches and surveys.While your lender will carry out a basic mortgage valuation, it’s always worth considering a more detailed survey so you have a full understanding of the property before you commit.

Choosing the right estate agent is key, and it’s a decision worth taking your time over.There’s a lot to consider. Do you feel comfortable with them? How will they market your property, and what sort of agreement or timescales are in place? What are their fees, and what’s included within that? It’s also important that the valuation is supported by local knowledge and solid data, giving you a clear and realistic starting point, rather than simply being pitched high to win your instruction.

Once you’ve chosen your agent, it’s time to get your property ready for the market. A bit of organisation goes a long way, not just for your move, but in helping buyers picture themselves living there.Over time, we all build up belongings, so decluttering and neatly storing things away can really open up the space. It allows buyers to see the property more clearly and imagine how their own furniture and lifestyle would fit in.First impressions matter, so it’s worth giving the outside some attention and ticking off any small repairs. These simple touches can make a big difference, helping your home feel well cared for and avoiding buyers being put off by jobs they think they’ll need to take on.

With your property on the market, it’s time to prepare for viewings. A good approach is to make sure buyers are properly qualified beforehand, so you know who’s coming through the door.We usually recommend leaving viewings to your agent. Buyers tend to feel more comfortable and open, which leads to more honest feedback and gives a clearer picture of how your home is being received.

An accurately priced property often attracts stronger offers than one that starts too high and needs to be reduced later.That said, the highest offer isn’t always the best one. It’s important to look at the buyer’s position, whether they’re ready to move quickly or part of a chain, as this can make a big difference to how smoothly things progress.A good agent will help you weigh this up and guide you towards the offer that puts you in the best overall position.

Once an offer is accepted, the conveyancing process begins, with both your solicitor and the buyer’s solicitor working through the legal side of the sale.This stage is all about keeping things moving and dealing with any queries quickly, so the transaction stays on track. It’s also a good time to start getting organised for your move, so everything is ready when you need it.
