Navigating the journey towards selling your home

It’s no secret that selling your home whether for the first time or the fifth time can be a stressful and lengthy process. The journey can take several twists and turns, especially during key times of the year such as around the festive period where properties can take longer to sell across the board.

At Gilson Gray, we caught up with Rob McGregor who is an Associate Director of Property Sales and is based across our Edinburgh and East Lothian offices. His expertise across Estate Agency and Valuations sets him in a highly knowledgeable position to provide guidance and advice when it comes to navigating the journey towards selling your home and the key steps in the process.

The Valuation

Our team of experienced Valuers operate across Scotland and will advise you on a realistic selling price for your property which is based on local knowledge, research of comparable sales data and from working closely with local Surveyors.

We understand that your home means a lot to you and so we work hard to care for your property as though it is our own!

Prepare your home for the market

Competition is fierce with other properties on the market so it’s important to show your home off in the best possible light. You can find some top tips here to get you started in readying your home for market. Always put yourself in the buyers shoes – how would you want the property to look?

The Marketing journey

We will tailor a custom marketing strategy for your home which includes the lead time to market and a summary on marketing collateral required. This includes everything from property portals used, social media promotion and sales literature.

Our commitment to promoting and consistently highlighting your property to the buying public, allows us to really focus in on the key aspects of what it is about your home that you love, which the next buyer will also greatly enjoy. This could be anything from your favourite room!
