Selling House and unsure what to do
Comments

I would suggest you skip traditional high street estate agents and go with an online one instead (that will caost about £400 as a flat fee), that'll save you a heap of cash. 94% of purchasers do their searches online, so I don't think the difference in cost for a high street EA is worth it, considering what they actually do!
EA always overvalue. I think you could use the properties that have sold as a benchmark then add £5k on for the parking, £10k for any additional bedrooms and a notional £2-£5k for the garden and 'good order''I think that God, in creating Man, somewhat overestimated his ability'..Oscar Wilde0 -
Agree with what other posters have said.
Have a think about it - if you were looking at a house on the market at 275K, would you pay a price that takes you over the 250K SD threshold?Penny: I'm a little low on cash.
Leonard: How much you got?
Penny: Nothing!
Leonard: How can you walk around with no money?
Penny: I'm cute, I get by.0
