Should I Use An Estate Agent - Or Do It Myself ?

‍

Sometimes it might be tempting to try and do the job yourself, perhaps you are tempted to use a Company that promotes selling your own home versus using a professional estate agent.

However, cutting corners and trying to sell your most precious possession without using the right professionals could cause you more harm than good.

Examples of the benefits of using a professional versus trying to do the job yourself are self explanatory .....

For example - if you had toothache - would you book an appointment to see the Dentist? - or would you visit a local mechanic to borrow a pair of pliers and be tempted to do the job yourself and pull out your own teeth?

Professionals are there for a reason and have the skills and know how to look after your best interests.

The Jersey Estate Agents' Association was established in 1965 and are a body of professional local estate agents that are trained and committed to guiding you and helping you every step of the way.

‍

Here are some excellent reasons why you should always use an estate agent:

‍

1) All members adhere to a code of conduct which ensures your best interests are met at all times.

2) They know and have studied the local market and have access to a database of potential ready and waiting buyers.

3) They are supervised by The Jersey Financial Services Commission to ensure transactions are legitimate and trustworthy.

4) Majority of estate agents offer a no sale no fee

5) Members of the JEAA will offer an honest appraisal of your home and help you achieve its best value.
