OPINION: Reach more buyers with the personal touch

With Simon Smith, partner, Henry Adams

Persuading a reluctant homebuyer to view a property which they’d ruled out having seen it on the internet – but which I thought would suit them – is all part of our service.

This scenario happened recently in our Chichester office.

After finally agreeing to view, the buyer spotted the potential of the home and a sale was swiftly agreed, resulting in a happy buyer and a happy seller.

Sometimes it seems like the internet provides all the answers.

But there’s nothing quite like talking to people face to face, especially when entrusting them with the biggest investment of your life – buying or selling your home.

You need to know your property transaction is in safe hands.

Our prominent office locations across the region place us close to the heart of their communities.

Above all, people can meet us, the people behind the brand name.

We have qualified, knowledgeable and friendly staff in each of our offices.

With an average length of service at Henry Adams of more than ten years, we really understand our local markets and communities.

There’s no doubt the internet is a fantastic tool for selling houses – that’s why we make sure all our instructions appear prominently online.

But it’s vital not to rule out any buyers by relying on just one avenue.

Buyers come from many other sources including local advertising, calling in to our offices or through our strong connections with The London Office and Waterside Properties, and of course our extensive database of keen applicants.

We accompany the vast majority of our viewings which helps us actively sell each home while getting to know our buyers better.

Once we’ve negotiated the sale of your property, the hard work behind the scenes starts.

We’ll personally manage the sale through to exchange and legal completion and that’s where a skilful estate agent can really add value by keeping things on track.

Whether you’re looking for advice about market trends, searching for your next home, or you’re just curious to see what your current property could be worth, please come in – no appointment is necessary and we’d love to meet you.
