London Estate Agent Offering the Chance to Sell your Property for Free
This article is an external press release originally published on the Landlord News website, which has now been migrated to the Just Landlords blog.
As it now costs an average of over £9,000 to sell your property in London, one estate agent is offering you the chance to sell your property for free!
Portico London estate agent has created the Portico Property Quiz to help one lucky winner beat extortionate fees.
Those who enter the quiz and score 80% or higher will automatically be entered into a prize draw, with one lucky person winning a 0% fee and a £100 John Lewis voucher.
The majority of the questions are general property knowledge, from the average time it takes to sell a London property to Stamp Duty calculations to a guess-the-price picture round.
The agent has launched the competition at a time when Londoners have to find an average of £9,244 in estate agent fees to sell their properties. This is a huge 414% more than 20 years ago, when the average estate agent fee in the capital was £1,797.
The Managing Director of Portico, Robert Nichols, says: “Everybody wants a quick and easy property sale. Unfortunately, in this market, the time it takes to sell a home can vary greatly, depending on how you sell it and who you sell it with.
“At Portico, we offer a range of unique services to maximise the sale price achieved, from home staging and free handyman work, to an Airbnb management service that enables vendors to earn until their property sells.”
He adds: “We’re excited to be offering one lucky homeowner the chance to sell for free, potentially saving tens of thousands of pounds in estate agent fees. Fancy yourself a bit of a property expert? Take our quiz! https://www.portico.com/blog/our-news/sell-your-home-for-free!”
