Selling your home in east London and Essex
One named person handles your sale from the valuation to the keys — pricing it honestly, marketing it properly and chasing the chain every week until it exchanges.
A sale in five plotted stages
Nothing here is unusual — it is simply the order it happens in, and who is responsible at each point. The difference between agencies is how much of it they actually do.
Valuation & strategy
We walk the property, price it on what has actually sold nearby, and agree an asking price you are happy to defend. If we think a figure is wrong we say so before you instruct us, not three months later.
Marketing
Professional photography, a floorplan, the EPC and the portal listings — plus a direct call round to the buyers already registered for your street, which is often where the first viewing comes from.
Viewings
Accompanied, seven days a week. We check a buyer's position and funding before they come, and you get feedback the same day whether it is flattering or not.
Offers & negotiation
Every offer in writing with the buyer's chain, funding and timescale, so you can compare like with like. The highest number is not always the best offer.
Sale progression
Solicitors, surveyors and the chain chased weekly until exchange. This is the part most sales fall down on, and it is the part we do not delegate.

The price is the marketing
A property priced 10% over the market does not sell 10% slower — it sits, the listing goes stale, and the eventual buyer offers below what a correctly priced sale would have achieved on day one. Every agent knows this. Not every agent will tell you before they have your instruction.
We would rather give you an honest figure and lose the instruction than win it with a number we cannot deliver. If you have had three valuations and one is well above the others, ask that agent to show you the comparable sales.
Read the full step-by-step guideWhat are your fees for selling?
Sales fees are quoted per property and confirmed in writing before you instruct us. Ring the office and we will tell you the figure over the phone rather than making you sit through a pitch for it.
How long will it take to sell?
Marketing time depends almost entirely on the asking price. From an accepted offer to completion, twelve to sixteen weeks is typical, and a long chain or a leasehold flat can add to it.
Do I need an EPC before you market it?
Yes — one has to be commissioned before the property is advertised. If you do not have a valid one we will arrange it.
Should I sell before I buy?
Being under offer makes your own offer far stronger, and in a slower market it is often the difference between being taken seriously and being ignored. We will talk you through the trade-off.
