Property particulars
Once you have instructed an estate agent, they will need to put together the property particulars. This will involve:
- Taking detailed measurements of each room in order to create a floorplan.
- Making notes of each room for the description.
- Photographing the exterior and interior of your property. In most cases they will arrange for a professional photographer to visit your house. Many estate agents now offer video tours for potential buyers to see round your property and get an idea if they are genuinely interested before viewing your home in person.
You will be asked to approve the property particulars before your property is marketed. Don’t be afraid to ask for changes/additions if they have missed something in the description that you feel will entice potential buyers, or if you aren’t happy with one or more of the photographs.
