What if I'm already using an estate agent?
This depends on what type of contract you have. Take a look at our Estate Agent information below.

Many people are unaware that they can utilise the services of more than 1 estate agent to sell their property. However, this depends on the type of contract you have with them. Proceed with caution. As with all contracts, read thoroughly and seek clarification on anything that is confusing before you put pen to paper.
There are 5 different types of contract you could sign with an estate agent;
- Sole selling
The estate agent retains the right to charge commission for the sale of the property even if you find a buyer independently without the assistance of the agent.
- Sole agency
The estate agent is still the only agency with the selling rights. However, there is no commission to pay to the agent if you find a buyer yourself.
- Multiple agency
You can take on a number of estate agents to market your property but you only have to pay a fee to the 1 agent that actually sells it. This contract usually specifies a higher commission rate.
- Joint sole agency
You appoint 2 or more agencies to work together to sell your property and they split the fee equally between themselves, irrespective of who is responsible for the sale.
- Ready, willing & able
It is recommended to stay away from this type of contract. If the estate agent finds you a buyer and you pull out of the sale, you will still be required to pay them.
Because The Property Point is a commission free estate agent there are no contracts to sign. For the online advertising fee for a residential or commercial property, The Property Point will help you to sell your property WITHOUT ANY COMMISSION TO PAY whatsoever. |
What does 'commission free' mean?
Quite simply on the completion of your sale you keep the full value of the property without having to pay one single extra penny to The Property Point.
How long does it take for my property to appear on The Property Point?

Can I update or change my details at any time?

Do you do everything that a high street estate agent does?
Virtually. The only thing we don’t do is take pictures of your house and measure up the rooms. After all, who knows your property better than you? With digital cameras and camera phones, it has never been quicker and easier to take and share photographs. By leaving this task to you the whole selling process is speeded up dramatically.
Do you cover all areas in the UK?
YES. Have a quick browse on the website and you will see that The Property Point deals with both domestic and business properties in the UK and Ireland. |
