Text from 2020. Laws, rates and prices may have changed since then. Ask an agent
Selling a flat is a process that requires complex logistics as well as specialist knowledge. If we want to do it quickly and effectively, it is worth using the help of a specialist, that is, an estate agent, who will guide us through the whole process. Find out what you will gain by using their services.
The services of estate agents are growing in popularity. Yet many of us still view them sceptically. Quite unnecessarily, because a good estate agent can considerably speed up a sale and, on top of that, negotiate the best possible price for us. Let us also bear in mind that by using their services we save the time and energy that we would otherwise have to devote to handling the sale.
A realistic property price
The key to success in selling a property is an accurate valuation of the flat. You must not overprice it, as this will make the whole sales process considerably harder and discourage potential clients. Nor should you undervalue the flat, as we want to profit from the whole transaction. This is where an estate agent will be very useful. Their experience and knowledge of the property market will make it possible to set a realistic price for the flat that satisfies both the seller and the buyer.
Finding clients
Looking for people interested in our property can be tedious if we try to do it on our own. It is worth seeking suitable support here and using the help of an agent, who will not only prepare an attractive advertisement to place on the right portals, but will also use their contacts to attract the most interested clients.
When using the services of an estate agent, you can also count on comprehensive preparation of the flat or house for sale. Thanks to this, the property will become more attractive to potential buyers.
Checking the legal status of the property
When we want to sell a property, we should be sure of its legal status. And it often turns out that even flat owners are not fully aware of it. A good estate agent will check for us whether we have all the documents needed to sell the flat. They will make sure that everything in the land and mortgage register (księga wieczysta) is in order and check exactly how much mortgage debt, if any, is outstanding.
Legal requirements can be intricate, and every individual situation may call for checking other, additional matters of which flat owners are not always aware. That is why it is worth having professional support in the form of an estate agent, who will check every detail for us.
Finalising the transaction
Once a committed buyer has been found for our property, it is time to finalise the transaction. Here, too, a number of difficulties may arise, so it is worth using the services of a specialist. The estate agent will take care of the necessary documents for both parties and will handle most of the official formalities for us.
Using the services of an estate agent when selling a property brings many benefits. In this way we save time and energy, and we make more money. Thanks to the help of a professional, the whole transaction will run more smoothly, and we will obtain the best possible price for the flat.
