Selling - Notice
Successful Marketing
At Sellers of Distinction we understand that the presentation of your property is key to a successful property sale.
The more buyers we can attract to look at your property, the broader the resulting choice of potential purchaser, which will in turn ensure you achieve the best possible price.
If the information provided accurately reflects your property we will therefore match buyers expectations and increase the possibility of an offer being made.
Accurate Valuation
All our valuations are free of charge and we only offer our honest advice on the value of your home and the best approach to finding you a buyer based on our years of experience and the use of the most up to date techniques available.
Property Sales Particulars
Our details are attention grabbing, in full colour and can be laminated if desired; giving an accurate and sales focused description of your home.
Floor plans
We can include a floor plan of your property, which is a great tool to help prospective buyers visualise both the layout and size of your home.
Virtual Tours
Take this one step further and provide potential purchasers with panoramic views of selected rooms in your property.
Proffessional Imagery
Fantastic photographs will be taken of your property by our proffessional photographer to show your home in the best light.
3D Walkthrough
A 3D walkthrough is a computer-generated tour that gives a potential Buyer an even better understanding of your property. Both the furniture arrangement and decoration are changed to provide a non-personal perspective on the property.
PR and Press Advertising
We invest heavily in local and national medias to increase our brand awareness. This also includes featuring regularly in York’s local Property Press that most buyers looking for a property in and around York would read.
Website Advertising
Over 88 % of buyers use the Internet at some stage of their property purchase. A great deal of attention and investment has been made to ensure that all of our available homes have a massive exposure on both our website and other portals. We advertise on the following sites:
-
Sellersofdistinction.co.uk
It is a multifunctional, but user-friendly, search engine that makes it easy to look closely at all of our featured properties. With many including images, floor plans, virtual tours, 3D walkthroughs and full sales particulars.
Our website is also linked to our sister company Letters of Distinction, a site that attracts hundreds of landlords and tenants on a regular basis. Both of whom will surely look to buy at some point if not on a regular basis.
Also, many local blue chip companies and their employees often rely on our services to find themselves suitable properties, by using our website links. -

Feedback
You, the vendor, are an integral part of the sales process and it is important we keep you updated. You will receive viewing feedback within 48 of the viewing.
Personal Agent
Each vendor will be allocated a personal agent upon receiving your instruction. This way, you have a point of contact in our office to assist with any enquiries you may have. This will limit the number of agents dealing with your sale, improving the communication channel between parties and therefore providing you with answers, fast!
Progress Reports
Your personal agent will contact you on a regular basis throughout the whole process of selling your home. They will provide you with reports on the activity generated through the various medias we use and advise accordingly. Your agent will negotiate for good solid offers on your home. And finally, to provide support to help carry your sale through to completion by close communications with solicitors, financial advisors and other agents involved in any chains.
