Our Unique Approach
As opposed to just "sticking up a sign" we will take time to talk to you and understand your specific requirements. Selling property can be a stressful time so it is important that you know exactly what to expect. Based on our initial free valuation we will prepare a Marketing & Sales Proposal tailored to you and your property. We believe in putting things in writing so that there is absolutely no confusion should you engage our services...clarity, clarity, clarity. Your personalised Proposal will outline the following:
- Suggested Guide Price
- Time Frame for Selling
- Marketing Strategy
- Marketing Costs and when they are payable
- Viewing arrangements
- Professional Fees
- Top 10 Tips for Selling
At this point you can decide to sell, not to sell, to sell with us or to sell with another agent. There is absolutely no charge up to this point.
Honesty
Over 90% of our clients state that honesty is the most important factor when choosing an auctioneer. We agree with them and guarantee honesty in our all dealings with you.
Hard Work
We believe that there is no substitute for hard work particularly in the current environment. We will work to sell your property including after hours and weekend viewings.
Our Record
We have been awarded the ERA ‘Broker of the Year’ for the past 6 years. This means that we have SOLD more property that any other ERA agent Nationwide. Would you like to sell with market leaders ?
Communication
It is said that Communication is the Breakfast of Champions. We will be in constant contact with you so that you know exactly what is happening as your sale progresses. Even if there is no news, we will tell you.
ERA Network
ERA is the largest Real Estate network in the world. With over 40 offices nationwide, 1,000 offices in Europe and over 2,000 in the USA we really can market your property globally.
Highest Possible Price
You are entitled to get the very best price for your property. By following a tailored marketing strategy we believe that we can achieve this for you.

High Quality Brochure
We will compile and arrange the printing of a descriptive high quality sales brochure. This will feature comprehensive details of your property including photographs, floor plans and directions to assist viewers. As soon as the brochure is prepared we will send you a draft for approval.

For Sale Sign
We will organise a suitable signboard to be erected at your property. Our mobile number will be on the sign and we can also organise a directional sign on the main road if suitable.
