This sale almost went wrong.
The owner was ready to accept £300k.
To most people, that’s a good result. Job done.
But this is exactly where sellers lose money.
Nothing changed about the house.
Same property. Same market.
Yet £50,000 changed in the final price.
Why? Because the first offer is often a trap.
Most agents would’ve closed early and moved on.
Instead of raising the price, we raised the competition.
Over 250 people viewed this house. That’s not normal — and it’s not accidental.
When buyers feel urgency and pressure, they stop negotiating down and start competing up.
That’s how you move from a “good offer” to the best one.
This wasn’t luck.
It was positioning, timing, and demand done properly.
If your selling strategy ends at “list and wait,” you’re leaving money on the table.
My clients choose to get the most out of the sale of their home… and you?
What will you choose?
