Why the Agent You Choose Can Add - or Cost You - Thousands
You’ve had your valuation(s). Now you’re probably weighing up: who’s the right agent to actually handle the sale?
Here’s the truth: any agent can list your property. The real difference is whether they can extract the best buyer at the best price. And that difference can be tens of thousands of pounds in your pocket.
At Harris + Wood, we’ve built our whole approach around that one goal, not just selling, but selling well.
We don’t just find “a buyer” - we find the right buyer
Some buyers look great on paper but can’t actually move forward. We put every buyer through rigorous checks. Finance, chain position, proof of funds - so you’re only agreeing deals the most qualified candidates.
Marketing that creates competition
We don’t want just one offer. We want multiple. Why? Because competition drives price. That’s why we employ our very own in-house media team to capture professional photography, cinematic video, and produce targeted social media campaigns. Better quality details means more serious buyers through your door.
Negotiation that pushes beyond the headline figure
The first offer isn’t always the best. Many agents stop there. We don’t. We negotiate like it's our own, and because every extra thousand matters to you, it matters to us.
A proven process from start to finish
Selling isn’t just about finding a buyer, it’s about getting the deal over the line. Our systems keep the chain moving, keep you updated, and reduce the risk of fall-throughs.
The takeaway
Choosing your agent isn’t about who gives the highest valuation number on the day. It’s about who has the process, the marketing, and the skill to actually deliver the result. At Harris + Wood, that’s what we’re known for.
