Looking to move?
Here’s some expert help
Edinburgh Estate Agent, Stephen Truscott
from Truscott Property, suggests some key
steps and top tips for making your move.
1 Speak to a good estate agent
An estate agent will advise you on how to
prepare your home for sale, what it is worth
and the timescales involved so you are not
putting yourself under unnecessary
pressure.
Top tip
Be wary of low fees they will most likely
have lots of properties
on the market, so your property
may not get the attention you
deserve.
2 Instruct a solicitor
A solicitor will be needed for the sale and
purchase, and your estate agent will
introduce you to one if required.
Top tip
There is little benefit
from using a combined
solicitor/estate agent.
You are better choosing the best
estate agent and the best solicitor
to act for you.
