Working out what to sell your house for...

How do you work out what price to put your house on the market for?

Is it just a case of asking a few estate agents to give a valuation on the property and then go for the highest one of those or is there more of a science to it than that?

What about if you are in no particular rush to sell should you set it a little higher than if you are in a rush... any hints and tips on setting the price for your house would be appreciated

Yes I think that it is mainly just a case of doing the research and getting a few estate agents round.

Generally you will find that the spread of prices they suggest is about within 5% of each other.

Then if you are looking for a quick sale perhaps go with the low end quote, but otherwise go with the top end quote and see what happens!

I would take a look at some of the property sites online that have current properties, then search your postcode area.

Normally unless you live in the middle of nowhere there will be a few similar houses in your postcode or a near postcode that are up for sale at any one time.

Then all you need to do is to look at the value of those similar properties at the current time.

That is an easy way to get a benchmark of what your property is worth.

I know that's probably really obvious and just common sense but anyway that is what I would do

I think concerning the agents is one of the best option.. They have the actual knowledge of the property rate and if you are selling the home with the help of them, they will definitely let it sell on higher amount..
