Unlock the Secret to a Stress-Free Move with Jon & Co.
Does the thought of selling your home feel overwhelming? At Jon & Co, we understand that moving is a significant life event. That’s why we’re here to demystify the process and support you every step of the way, ensuring a smooth and seamless experience.
Your Sales Journey with Jon & Co:
Expert Valuations: Although instant valuations are quick and convenient and can give homeowners a good estimate of what their property is worth (based on previously sold data), our expert valuation service is the ideal way to accurately assess your property’s true value and take into account its individual highlights and unique selling points. Completely FREE and without obligation, we draw on decades of market expertise and data to provide you with an honest and achievable guide price. We don’t over-inflate to win a listing or undersell to achieve a quick sale. Our valuations are provided with complete integrity.
Prepare to ‘WOW’ buyers: Did you know that the majority of buyers make up their minds about a property within minutes of stepping foot in the front door, and in many instances, before they’ve even got that far? Therefore, we recommend preparing your property before marketing, including getting those annoying little odd jobs done, having a deep clean, and, of course, decluttering. And just when you think you’ve decluttered enough, go around again with another couple of boxes (it’ll also make moving day much easier).
Receiving an Offer: When a buyer makes an offer on your home, we’ll inform you immediately. Our team ensures that the buyer is financially capable of proceeding with the purchase. We’ll communicate their offer, alongside key details such as their position in the market, whether they’re part of a chain, and the estimated completion time, both by phone and email. This transparency helps you make informed decisions about your next steps.
Negotiating Offers: If the offer is below your asking price, we step in to negotiate, aiming to match or exceed your expectations. In cases with multiple interested buyers, it’s not uncommon to surpass the asking price. We’ll also guide you through the process of appointing a trusted, local conveyancing solicitor, drawing from our extensive experience with reputable professionals in the area.
Existing Mortgages: If you have a mortgage, we’ll help you navigate the permissions needed from your lender, especially if the offer doesn’t cover your borrowed amount. We’ll also assist in understanding any early settlement or exit fees.
Progressing to ‘Offer Accepted’: This phase is bustling with activity involving solicitors, mortgage providers, and surveyors. Your solicitor will handle important tasks like obtaining the Title Deeds, conducting anti-money laundering checks, and preparing the sale contract, which includes details like fixtures and fittings. We’re here to facilitate any additional negotiations required.
Exchange of Contracts: This crucial stage solidifies the agreement between you and the buyer and you are now legally bound to sell your property to the buyer,. Likewise, they are committed to buying your property. The buyer will also place a deposit, typically 10% of the purchase price.
Setting the Completion Date: After the exchange of contracts, a completion date is set, giving you a clear timeline for your move.
Completion Day: The big day when the sale is finalised! You’ll hand over the keys, and your solicitor will handle the financial transactions, including settling any mortgages and transferring the property deeds.
