Got a flat to sell? Well, brilliant! However, unless you are extremely talented, you probably are not going to be able to sell it on your own. This means that you are going to need to find a Bristol estate agent to work with. Here, we are going to provide you with a rough guide on ensuring that you find the perfect Bristol estate agent to work it.

Do they specialise in selling flats?

It is important that you choose an estate agent who regularly deals with flats. If they mainly sell houses, then they are not going to be the right estate agent for you. In fact, if they do sell flats and they tend to be of the budget end of the market, but you have a high class flat to sell, then you probably will not want to work with them either. Basically, it is important that you choose an estate agent who sells property that is similar to what you have to offer. There are several different reasons to this, including:

• They will have a much better understanding of the market. This means that they will know the right price to sell your property at. The problem with many inexperienced estate agents on the market is that they do not really know how to price property well. It is common for them to overvalue your property. This means that it is not going to sell quickly. In other cases, they may undervalue your property. Sure, you are going to end up with a quick sale, but you are going to be leaving money on the table!
• An estate agent which specialises in your particular type of property will have a steady stream of clients coming to them. This means that they will likely be able to find a buyer for your property nice and quickly. This means that you are going to be selling your property faster!

Talk to the estate agent

It is important that you talk to the estate agent to find out how they operate. Of course, it is important that the estate agent that you choose is nice and friendly. After all, it is likely that they are going to be the person that will be showing your property off to potential buyers. If they seem miserable, then the potential buyers are not going to be fine with that! Thankfully, many estate agents get into the business because they do have a personality which works well.

The main reason as to why you are going to be meeting with them is because you want to find out how they are going to be marketing your property. It is important that they are not just listing your property on their own website, you want them to be marketing your property on as many sites as possible. You want the maximum amount of eyes on your property. It will sell quicker!
