OUR APPROACHOur approach to selling your property harnesses the power of technology, local knowledge, and our professional and friendly sales team. Our aim is to take the stress out of selling your property, provide clear and honest advice, and work hard to exceed your expectations of the estate agency experience!Robinsons is proud of our reputation for providing an excellent property sales service. Client testimonials praise our team for going ‘above and beyond’ and for our outstanding communications throughout the selling process: ensuring clients know exactly what is happening at each stage of a sale.We like to start off on the right foot and this means providing a realistic and fair property valuation based on the local market, demand and comparable properties.With our excellent local knowledge and market experience in Dunstable, our team will provide you with a free valuation and advice on how to achieve the best price. We will also take into account your individual circumstances and requirements, whether you need a quick sale or can afford to wait for the right buyer to make an offer.Our job is then to market your property and find the right buyer. Robinsons will pull out all the stops to promote your property and work hard to get potential buyers through the door.We take a proactive approach to marketing and selling properties that include taking high quality photographs to showcase the property, producing detailed floorplans and bespoke details. Properties are advertised on our website, on popular property portals, and directly to our database of potential buyers. While we embrace technology to promote your property we also use old-fashioned techniques too, such as picking up the phone to speak to people we know are looking for a property like yours.OUR PROCESSFrom the moment you instruct us to sell your property we keep in close contact with you. Communication is key to a successful sale.Robinsons will keep you fully informed of how we are marketing your property and what level of interest we receive. We will also regularly update you on the market in the area, and if necessary advice you on how to increase your chances of a sale. We also pass on all feedback from potential buyers, including those that view your property and those that don’t. You need to know what people are saying, and we promise that we will tell you!We won’t stop until you’ve completed. Our job isn’t over until we are certain that your property is sold.Even when you have received an offer Robinsons will continue to support you. We can advise you on whether we think the offer is good, and what strategy you should take particularly when a chain is involved. We will also agree timescales with all parties, and ensure that you have all the information needed to keep things on track and moving towards completion. If at any point the sale falls through, we’re also ready to get your property back on the market and find a new buyer.If you decide to instruct us we will then guide you through the selling process including preparing your property for viewings and ensuring paperwork is in order.First impressions count and a small investment of time and money can make a significant difference to viewings and interest in your property. Our sales team will make suggestions of ways you can do this, and provide any support you need. We also recommend that you instruct a solicitor so you are ready to move fast when you are offered the right price. Don’t worry we will remind you about all these things!
