House Price Change, Where To Sell?

retired_member6 · 19-06-2009, 07:46:17 PM

My house has been lowered over the past weeks to around £95,000

Anyone had success selling their own house, if so where please? it's taking far too long.

Property details for 95 Court Lane Birmingham B23 5SH - Zoopla!

Don't know the area Lee, but looks like a good buy to me...

I'm thinking of starting up a UK version of the yank-favourite 'Homes by Owner'-type sites - 'Buy Our House.co.uk'... Cuts out the middle man etc. = more profit for owners. Could have a sub-contracted firm send out signs etc. to put outside your home, visit 'BuyOurHouse.co.uk and enter: 33387' (for example) for more info.
A good idea?

You need to watch for contracts with agents. They are easily terminated though...

Could be but would take research, anything that sells house quicker would be welcome, other than price being lowered again. I want to get on with my life.

@ Lee, do some proper photos for your home, on the Dixons site, there is only 1 image of the front of the property, and what were you thinking on the Zoopla site, those photos are bad, I mean, a photo of a moss covered gate, a delapidated shed full of leaves and a dustbin, and several long shots of the same lawn, not very inviting and wouldn't make me want to even view the property at all after seeing those, sort it out

Can't you get some decent photos done of the rooms and get them on the estate agents, get someone to have a bit of a tody up in the garden etc?

I got tenants, not sure what the place is like these days, and good point re pics, maybe I'll remove them.
