Estate Agents vs Jemima Poppy

By JemimaPoppy Homeowners, House Prices, Property No Comments

When it comes to selling your home, for years there was only one way to do it – through estate agents. But with the rise of social media and online means it is taking over and more homeowners are looking to sell online.

 

In 2010 the statistics showed that only 2% of homeowners sold their property online, with 27% of people who had used estate agents saying they were open to alternative methods of selling their home.

 

Two years later and estate agents have evolved, with house buyers (61-80% of them) searching for properties online and homeowners having a multitude of options on how to sell their home, with the traditional route of estate agents meeting the numerous property websites such as Rightmove which have gained enormous popularity in recent years.

 

But with options and the rise of online and social media came the recession. Since 2008 the UK has been hit hard by bank collapses, redundancies, businesses going bankrupt and spiralling debt. And it’s not about to get any easier, as the UK has plunged into another recession.

 

So if you need to sell your home quickly and the idea of giving a huge chunk of your sale to an estate agent as commission isn’t for you, that’s where Jemima Poppy comes in.

 

The three ways Jemima Poppy differs from estate agents are:

 

Guaranteed Sale

 

That’s a 100% guarantee. We guarantee our clients certainty and piece of mind – so if we say we will buy your house we will! Estate Agents cannot fully guarantee a sale – 29.3% of all house sales fell through in February 2012 due to a number of reasons, and when add a number of buyers, the number continues to decrease. We don’t back out.

 

Speed

 

If you need to sell your home quickly, whether it’s due to relocation, spiralling debts, the threat of repossession or it’s part of a divorce settlement, we complete the purchase of your home in 4-8 weeks, letting you sell your home quickly and move on. Estate agents cannot guarantee that, as complications can arise with buyers.

 

Peace of Mind

 

If we agree to buy your home, we will, allowing you to escape whatever situation you are currently stuck in. If you are suffering from financial problems and want the pain to stop, Jemima Poppy can help you stop the pain. Estate agents are based purely on commission, and you are just a figure to them – we care.
