When marketing a property for sale, the key is ensuring it reaches a broader audience to find the perfect buyer. The ideal solution is for the exposure of your property marketing to be comprehensive and wide enough to ensure that the maximum number of potential buyers can be found, resulting in a higher level of demand and, therefore, a higher value. This will lead to more viewings, offers, and higher sale prices - what every seller seeks.

Most of us do not think about our credit scores too often. We happily meander through life without giving it a second thought until we make a large purchase.

Buying a new property to live in is an enormous decision. Even so, we will likely spend more time deciding to buy a new sofa or car than a new home. The average property viewing takes just 20 minutes, and the average buyer will view a property only 2 or 3 times before completing the sale and moving in. With such minimal time in a property before agreeing to purchase, these viewing appointments are critical - check out these top tips to make sure you don't miss anything!
