ADVICE TO VENDORS
Selling your property, whether it’s for the first time or you have moved on numerous occasions, can be an
arduous and stressful time. Let’s not forget that you are selling your biggest asset and the very thought of it
can be daunting.
Firstly, you will need to get your property valued. At Lough and Quay we pride ourselves on our honest,
professional and accurate advice to bring your property onto the market and get the best possible result.

At Lough and Quay we use professional photography to show your house in the best possible light. Our
photographer will call you and arrange to meet you at a time convenient to you. It is very important to have your home in best of order for this as the photographs are the first window to your property.
Before your property goes live it is imperative to check you are happy with all the details provided in your brochure. These details, whether they are looked at on line, by reading the physical magazine type brochure or being described by one of our expertly trained staff will be the difference between a potential purchaser viewing and not viewing.
It is now a good idea, but not totally necessary, to advise your solicitor of your impending move so they can request your title deeds and draw up the contract. This can speed up the conveyance process.
PRESENTING YOUR PROPERTY FOR VIEWING
First impressions are essential and once lost cannot be regained. Make sure the front of your property is in the best of conditions, this will put the potential purchaser in the right frame of mind for the rest of the viewing. Internally the property should be as clean as possible, clutter-free, as this will give a greater feeling of space, pets should be kept outside to leave the property smelling fresh and remember, not only are some people scared of animals, they can often be allergic to them. Where there is no natural light use some form of
illumination to create brightness.
At Lough and Quay we follow up every viewing to gain feedback from your potential purchaser. Once a an offer/offers are placed the negotiation process begins. Remember the highest offer is not always the best one. Our expert team will talk you through all offers and advise you on the best one to accept.
Once agreed the property is placed in the hands of solicitors to complete the selling process. We will keep you up to date throughout the conveyance procedure giving advice and answering any questions you may have.
Completion day. The moment you have been waiting for. Once you have dropped the keys to us we will release them to the new vendor when funds have been transferred to your solicitors account, leaving you the time to move into and to start enjoying living in your new home.
