Do your research
Before you contact any estate agents, do some online research to get an idea of the average property prices, demand and supply, and recent sales in Wythenshawe. You can use websites like Rightmove or Zoopla to browse properties and compare different areas. You can also check online reviews and ratings of estate agents on platforms like Google or Trustpilot to see what other customers have said about their experience.
Ask for recommendations
One of the best ways to find a good estate agent is to ask for recommendations from people you know who have bought or sold a property in Wythenshawe. They can give you honest feedback on their experience and tell you which estate agents Wythenshawe they would use again or avoid. You can also ask local friends, family, neighbours, or colleagues for their opinions.
Visit their office or website
Once you have a shortlist of potential estate agents, you should scrutinise their websites and visit their offices to get a feel for their professionalism, expertise, and customer service. Look at how they present themselves, how they market their properties, how they communicate with clients, and how they handle enquiries. You can also ask them some questions to test their knowledge of the local market, such as:
- How long have they been operating in Wythenshawe?
- How many properties have they sold or let in the area in the past year?
- What are their fees and charges?
- How do they value properties and what methods do they use?
- How do they advertise and promote their properties?
- How do they negotiate offers and handle contracts?
- How do they deal with any issues or complaints?
Compare different options
After you have visited or contacted several estate agents, compare them based on their answers, performance, reputation, and fees. You should look for an estate agent who:
- Has a good track record of selling or letting properties in Wythenshawe
- Has a good knowledge of the local market and trends
- Has a good reputation and positive reviews from previous clients
- Has a professional and friendly attitude
- Has reasonable and transparent fees and charges
- Has a clear and effective marketing strategy
