The Secret to a Smooth Sale? Early Prep.

The Secret to a Smooth Sale? Early Prep.

What key things could you be organising behind the scenes to best prepare you once you have agreed an offer on your home?

In the coming weeks, you’ll be hoping for viewings—and ideally, offers. So what can you do now to make sure you're fully prepared when that moment arrives?

Solicitor Quotes
If you haven’t chosen a solicitor yet, now’s the time to get one lined up so you're ready when an offer comes in. A good agent should be able to recommend trusted local solicitors and help you get quotes quickly. Being prepared can help avoid delays later on.

Removal Quotes
If you haven't already, it would be worth getting quotes for removals to make sure you're ready to go once completion dates arise.


Financial Advisor
If needed, take a moment to review your current mortgage terms. Are there any early repayment charges? Will you be porting your mortgage to a new property? Now’s a great time to speak with your lender or broker to ensure everything’s clear before an offer comes in.

Organising these key things early, can take the stress off when an offer comes in to you!

Every agent has their own approach, and your valuation meetings are a chance to get a feel for what’s possible. Early interest can make all the difference—some agents have ways of connecting with the right people before you even hit the market. Has that happened for your home?

If your home is on the market, you’ve probably had a few viewings already. But the real value comes from what happens after those viewings. Are you getting detailed, constructive feedback from every prospective buyer?
