Independent research from a property tech company (Spectre) found sellers who switch agent were 34% more likely to sell than those who reduced their price if they have been on the market for 8 weeks or more.

For example, in one of the areas Mortlock & Joyce operates in there have been 114 price reductions made so far this year with the average drop being 5.6%*. This meant sellers in this area had lost out on an average of £26,824. Spectre also found these sellers are likely to achieve 12% more for their home by switching agents.
