Who does the sales negotiation?
To keep the marketing costs down for advertising your Cardiff property we allow sellers of a property to negotiate the sales price for their property themselves.
Typically estate agents negotiate a sales price for a property, however some property owners prefer to do this themselves, that’s if they were able to. Dream Castle allows sellers of properties to do this.
Transparency
A property owner when selling a house can sometimes be left in the dark.
Sometimes they do not know who is being shown around their home. Sometimes they do not know how a negotiation went or the information the buyer said in their personal conversation when submitting an offer.
Therefore some property owners would like to be included in the negotiation or better still handle the whole process themselves. We realise this may not be for all property sellers within Cardiff. However there are many that would prefer this option.
For most of us bricks and mortar is our biggest investment. Should we trust somebody else to do the negotiation of such a vital asset for us? We believe therefore that the property owner is the best person for this job. If you agree Dream Castle is the property marketing platform for you within Cardiff.
Meeting face to face helps with the negotiation process
By meeting a potential buyer at your home you may have struck up a form of business relationship.
This will make it easier over the coming days or weeks when both parties negotiate a sales price.
We also note that some Dream Castle sellers prefer to be in direct communication with a potential buyer. This way you are not waiting for an estate agency to relay information back and fore to you.
You can e-mail or instead call a buyer to find out how a sale is progressing. If for any reason a chain was to break down you can communicate directly with the buyer and find out what the situation is directly from the buyer themselves.
This in some instances may allow you act quickly to re-list or re-submit your property on to Dream Castle so you could potentially find another new buyer within the Cardiff area.
Stick to a price or set a firm price
We encourage property sellers to adopt similar advice offered by some estate agents. That’s to set a sales price and to not to drop below it or advertise instead what’s called a “firm price” that means its clear in your advert that you are not looking for any offers on your Cardiff property instead you want the full asking price that’s advertised.
This normally means you can receive e-mails from buyers who are fully aware that the full asking price needs to be paid if they are to be a successful buyer of your property.
This may be a clever approach say if you are selling a property in a highly desirable area like Cyncoed within Cardiff. That’s because you are likely to receive much interest so setting a price to be firm allows you to be clear to all interested parties when they are communicating with you.
Who knows you may never have to use a local estate agency again within Cardiff. You may choose Dream Castle for all your property marketing needs.
