In 2011 we are celebrating 10 YEARS of selling and letting properties on behalf of thousands of satisfied clients. Thank you to everybody who has entrusted us with their most valuable asset and who have helped us to be the areas most successful Estate Agency office, selling more property in 2010 than any other Estate Agency office in the area!
Internet Marketing
We realise the demand for internet access to property information is essential which is why we have developed our own instantly updated Website at www.watersons.net Here you will find one of the most comprehensive and up to date property websites available, where all properties detailed include room descriptions, internal and external colour photographs and full floor plans.
We will also register your property on www.rightmove.co.uk, www.primeocation.com, www.propertyfinder.com, www.findaproperty.com, www.nethouseprices.com, www.fish4homes.co.uk, www.globrix.com. When combined, these websites enable us to provide local, regional, national and international coverage for your property!
Advertising
We take out full colour advertising space in the Sale and Altrincham Messenger and will advertise your property for two weeks as a new instruction and every other week thereafter. We also advertise in a range of other media, such as Cheshire Life and Manchester Evening News.
We understand the importance of advertising to make sure your property reaches every corner of the market.
Details with Digital Photography and Floorplans
All our sales particulars include up to 50 photographs which are digitally produced with a range of internal and external images. Our photographs are taken by either a professional photographer or by one of our in house team with professional photography equipment. Take a look at our photos on line against some of our competitors - there really is no comparison.
Our floorplans are more advanced than our competitors and are deadly accurate. Not only are they easier to read on our brochures but they can be brought up to full size on line, with room dimensions and square footages easily identifiable. Many of our competitors floor plans are too small to read, distort when enlarged and often the room measurements are not included on the plan. Why the difference? Simply we have been producing floorplans for 10 years and we understand the technology better and quite frankly we use a more expensive software product. Again, compare our plans on line.
Location Plans, Street Mapping and Site Plans Uniquely, we are the only Agent to use location, street and site plans within all our property details with full compass orientation
Dedicated Sales Negotiator
With every new instruction to market a property, we instantly assign a dedicated Sales Negotiator who will not only manage the day to day sales activity of your property, they will also arrange a convenient appointment to view your home, thus enabling them to �sell� your property to potential buyers, speaking from personal experience.
Most importantly, a key skill essential for any Estate Agent is the ability to negotiate an offer. All our Sales Negotiators are determined, persistent and successful negotiators who are professionally trained to get the best price they can for your home.
Buyers Register
To increase our chances of selling your home, we consistently have approximately 1500 buyers registered on our database at any one time. We record the "Buyer Status" of all registered buyers, so that we can identify those in a position to proceed immediately.
When we put a property on the market, on average, we notify 150 to 200 buyers either by mailshot, phone or email or text message.
Viewings We arrange between 75 and 100 viewings per week and all viewings can be accompanied by one of our Full Time Viewing Representatives, 7 days a week. You will be notified of the outcome of every viewing � see below.
Feedback and Communication
We believe that the first rule of excellent Customer Service in Estate Agency is based around the frequency and quality of feedback and communication between the Estate Agent and the Vendor/Client. As such, all Watersons� Vendors can expect the following:-
• Feedback given on all viewings within 48 hours of the viewing taking place.
• We will analyse feedback, so that we know what the market thinks of your home.
• Every 4 weeks you will receive a comprehensive Marketing Update, when all aspects of the marketing of your property will be reviewed.
• We will use tangible information to provide you with the right advice on the continued marketing of your property.
Sale Progression When we are agreeing a sale on your property we immediately identify the Buying Position and Financial Status including full Chain Details. During the transaction we will liaise with surveyors, mortgage lenders, solicitors, building contractors and anyone else we need to in order to move your sale to the finishing post as quickly as possible. We will keep you informed of all progress in the form of a Weekly Update, but if we need to give Daily Updates at critical stages, we will! We will also continue to arrange viewings for your property at least until your buyer has had a survey done, giving you the chance of a Fall Back Buyer.
A Professionally Trained Sales Team
All of the Sales Team have attended professional training courses provided by the National Association of Estate Agents, of which we are a member. Topics covered include:
• Essential Law for Estate Agents
• Successful Negotiating and Sales Progression
• Conveyancing Practice and Procedure
A Motivated Sales Team As a personal motivation for our sales staff, Watersons operate a Profit Share and Bonus Scheme relative to the price achieved for each property we sell. As a result, 15% of the profit that the Company makes, goes directly back to the Sales Team. This means that they have a huge incentive to sell your property for the best possible price.
Peace of Mind
Watersons are members of the National Association of Estate Agents and the Ombudsman Scheme for Estate Agents as approved by the Office of Fair Trading. Accordingly Watersons must abide by their strict codes of conduct, assuring the utmost professionalism.
When choosing an Estate Agent to sell your home, it is worth bearing in mind that not every Agent is a member of the industry�s professional bodies.
Solicitors and Conveyancing We have formed associations with leading firms of Solicitors and Conveyancers specialising in property transactions. Contact the office for further details.
