Property sales in Dorking, Reigate and the surrounding towns and villages are on the up, with a noticeable increase in the number of new properties coming to market. If the ‘new normal’ has you thinking about moving home, how do you choose an estate agent and make your property stand out from the crowd?
With drastic changes in how we’ve been able to live over the past few months, many of us have been given food for thought in terms of how we live, work and play. Major decisions about working practices and living arrangements are now coming to fruition.
We’ve heard news of a desire to move out of larger towns and cities, the increase in working from home more long term and a profound shift in our general attitudes to modern life. Living, working and learning in close proximity to our families and loved ones has been both a blessing and a reason to want to return to normality!
You may now be considering moving home in order to facilitate changing working patterns, to give your family more space of their own or to leave the hustle and bustle of city life for a calmer way of living. You’re not alone – the recent increase in house prices can be attributed to a number of factors including pent-up demand from lockdown, the temporary freeze on moving earlier this year, stamp duty incentives and the general desire to make changes after a period of relative inactvity.
Deciding to move home is a huge decision so it’s wise to ensure you have the right people on your side. As well-respected local Surrey estate agents with decades of experience, we’re in a prime position to guide you through the sale and/or purchase of a new home.
What do we offer to you?
Sound, expert advice
Our teams in both Dorking and Reigate offices staff have many years of continuous experience in selling homes in both towns and the surrounding villages and country areas so you can rest assured that their knowledge is extensive and wide ranging - our Managing Partner Alan king has had 40 years of unbroken experience in the Dorking and Reigate market. We will always offer sound and well researched advice.
Day-to day-involvement from our directors/Partners is part of our regular service and ensures accurate valuations and a strong focus on individual client needs. There are no office juniors or inexperienced agents at Jackson-Stops, and our staff get to know you and your property well in order to answer any questions that potential purchasers may have.
High-profile high street presence
Both offices are located in high footfall areas and have recently undergone transformations with redecorated interiors, rebranded exteriors and LED illuminated window displays to showcase properties.
Finding you a buyer
Your property will be matched with our local, regional and national database of buyers and they’ll receive immediate notification. We compose and deliver bespoke, high quality property alerts by email, with clear links through to properties. Old fashioned estate agency also plays a part - we get on the phone to find suitable buyers for your home.
High quality brochures
Our brochures are of the highest quality and will accurately present your property in its best light. Professional photography, accurate floor plans and compelling content make our brochures stand out from those of our competitors.
Bespoke property videos
At your request, we will arrange for a high-quality and professionally produced audio tour to be made, that will showcase your property in all of its glory. Videos give potential purchasers the ability to view your home from the comfort of theirs and give you an additional opportunity to highlight your property.
Local, regional and national coverage for your property
Our comprehensive PR coverage for properties includes local newspapers through to national titles giving your home the publicity it deserves. We produce adverts and contribute regular editorial to both local and national publications, securing consistent coverage for our properties.
Healthy online presence
Our website receives thousands of visits every week and our targeted search engine optimisation will give your property the edge in a busy market.
Your property will benefit from our active social media presence, ensuring that it is seen by a diverse range of potential purchasers. We regularly write features, as well as producing national content and regular blogging, bringing your property to a larger audience and ensuring that our website and your property feature prominently on Google search engine rankings.
We promote all of our properties on Rightmove and OnTheMarket. We also produce a regular newsletter, which features our properties of the month as well as articles about the area, property industry and expert comment. These newsletters consistently exceed industry-standard rates for people opening them and clicking through to view properties.
Network of offices
With over 40 offices across the UK, seven in London, we have buyers from every corner of the country looking for their new home. Our offices work together to share information about what buyers require, ensuring that potential purchasers are aware of properties that match their requirements – wherever they live.
Discreet marketing
If requested, we can market your property without the usual level of marketing that you would expect. There are many reasons why this might be the best option for you, for example, a high-profile client or perhaps those wishing to keep their business affairs private. We’ll use our extensive database of active buyers to contact potential purchasers privately and contact search agents and corporate clients using the greatest of discretion.
