Estate agents are like matchmakers

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, so it is a good time to talk about love – your love for your home. Our homes are our castles. We put our hearts and souls into them. We decorate them with love and turn them into reflections of our personalities.

However, when it comes time for us to part with them, this love for our properties can be detrimental to our ability to sell them. It is important that once you decide to sell your home, you try to detach emotionally from it.

Everyone has their own perfect property in mind. What attracts one person will not attract another, so do not get upset if your house receives a few rejections. 

It is hard to hear criticism about the property you love from viewers. When I show your property to potential buyers, I give you feedback that I think will help you sell it. If the criticism isn’t constructive or helpful to you, I will shield you from it.

Estate agents are the matchmakers of the property world. My job is to find the perfect person or people for your home who will love it as much as you do.

A viewing is like a date. Your property only has one chance to make a good first impression. I am always happy to make a few suggestions as to how you might be able to best present your property, and I promise to be tactful when doing so!

When a potential buyer says they want a second date, I mean viewing, I am ready to listen to their concerns and help them decide if your property is right for them.

As the song says, you can’t hurry love. I have been to a few viewings where someone fell in love with a property right in front of my eyes and made an offer right away. I have also taken people to see a property five times before they decided to make an offer.

I can help guide you through the whole process of selling your property. You can be assured that however lucky or unlucky you are in love, I will help your home find its perfect match.

One thing is definitely true. If you instruct me to find your property the perfect new owner, you will fall head over heels with my service and care.

If you would like to fall in love with a new property this year, give me a call about selling your home in Sheffield and Rotherham on 07920 097 175 or send me an email linda.stringer@exp.uk.com and I will be happy to help you.
