Selling a home for the first time

Selling a home for the first time can be a daunting process, in this blog we go through the different scenarios you may find yourself in

If you are selling your home for the first time, you have already been through the buying process. Now you may find yourself in a situation where you are not only buying but having to juggle selling, most likely your largest asset, your home. The thing that we can provide you is time, which could ultimately save you money.

When setting up Mortlock & Joyce, we wanted to learn from all the mistakes we feel we've made in the past and try to offer a unique experience. So aside from premium marketing and working with a self-employed business owner, we limit the number of clients we work with. This means when working with us, you can expect continuity throughout the process - no call centres or liaising with various team members (some often new to the role) to find out what is happening with your property. With this type of model, our clients receive a lot more, (yup! you've got it) time, than your average estate agent is going to offer. Not only does that help us provide a better moving experience and ultimately, higher prices for their homes, but we can also assist with advice on how best to approach an estate agent or how you offer on that dream property you have viewed.
