Selling your property is a stressful time. So here at Cockburn we do our utmost to make the sales process as stress-free as possible.
As we see it, our job is to work with you to achieve:
- The best possible price
- In a timescale set by you
- With the minimum amount of stress and inconvenience
To do this we will:
- Immediately contact all waiting purchasers on our lists, whose situation conforms to the timing you desire. Inform them that your property is available and encourage them to view.
- Prepare full colour particulars of your property, which will be sent to you for approval before being circulated via our mailing list. (Systematic mailing is still one of the cornerstones of property marketing.)
- Promote your property using our modern office window display presentations, bringing it to the immediate attention of active home buyers circulating in the area, 7 days a week.
- Advertise your property on both Rightmove & Zoopla Some agents only advertise on one of these platforms, by doing both we guarantee your property will be seen by the right people.
- We will arrange a block viewing or contact you, when interested parties wish to view your property, to arrange a time for a member of staff to show potential purchasers the property. The choice is yours, we are here to help and we are always flexible.
- Keep you informed whenever someone views. We will contact them, to obtain their opinion of the property and will update you with the results. We know how frustrating it is not to be kept up to date with what’s going on, so every effort is made to ensure you are fully informed.
- Negotiate on your behalf, when offers are received. Negotiation is an art, a skill, that takes years to perfect. You will have the benefit of our years of experience in this vital area.
- Qualify all offers. So that we can give a sale the best possible chance of reaching completion, we make sure that all offers are qualified by a finical advisor.
Even once a sale is agreed, we will:
- Monitor the sale through to its conclusion. If all goes well, this will be relatively straight forward. If not, it can be a nightmare. Either way, the headaches are ours not yours and our sales progressor will always, keep you informed.
Even once contracts are exchanged, we will:
- Still do our best to be of service and help in any way we can.
Most people don’t realise it, but there are at least 4 ways to sell your property. Which method is right for your situation is of fundamental importance.
- Private Treaty
- Formal Tender
- Auction
- Informal Tender
The method of disposal is just one of the areas a competent estate agent should consider when advising you on the marketing of your home but, very often, it isn’t even discussed.
Here are some more things Cockburn offer that make the difference:

- Very active internet presence – Rightmove, Zoopla and Net House Prices
- Full Colour Property Particulars- Systematic mailing is still one of the cornerstones of property marketing
- A large database of potential buyers, who will be matched to your property and sent the details in minutes of the property going live.
- Highly Trained & Experienced Staff – They really are terrific
