September 18, 2007 - That a possible antidote to the sluggishness of the property re-sale market up and down Spain has arrived. With the launch of a brand new nationwide website which not only enables property owners to sell their homes more rapidly, but also enables buyers to make lower offers, and have them accepted.
“Spanish property purchasing just became more pleasant, far easier….and a lot cheaper too” said Neil Raymond, Director of this radical online advertising/publishing website
http://www.spanishsalesdirect.com
In a progressively stale marketplace, this venture is a real breath of fresh air, offering a great deal of information, inspiration, and assistance throughout its pages to aid both sellers and buyers alike
The intuitive ‘listing creation form’ makes even rookie PC users able to quickly and easily construct an attractive and effective online preview of their home (complete with photographs) with which to tease a potential worldwide audience
In an ingenious twist, the three most interesting listings (in the eyes of the ‘SSD’ team) on the website, are automatically given a prestigious front page position as a ‘Feature Property’, helping to ensure that the potential of all listings is explored to the full
Vendor Patricia Hawkins, whose Spanish home is currently for sale conceded, “Because of the very real benefits to potential purchasers (i.e. the lower asking price), this less conventional approach could lead to much more of a response than anything that we have tried before”
Spanish Sales Direct states that what it does should represent value for money for all of its clients, and for that reason they are launching with a ‘one off’ flat fee rate of just 150.00€ for each property listed, irrespective of its asking price
Whilst potential buyers can peruse its content, search its database of listings and make enquiries upon any of them, completely free of charge
In enthusiastic tones Mrs. Jay Raymond (the other half of the husband & wife co-founders) said “As a seller, you take the enquiries – then you conduct the viewings, you negotiate the sale and you keep 100% of the funds!” She went on… “As a buyer, you need pay no more than the true asking price to own your dream home in the sun. Not a price bolstered by agents’ commissions”
The average time it takes to sell a property in Spain has risen of late. And whilst Estate agents increasingly remind vendors to ask realistic prices, their commission fees tend to remain between 5% - 15% leaving vendors who opt to sell via a private contract (i.e. not using agents at all) in the best position to sell quickly.
This trend, along with the company ethos “Nobody is better equipped to sell your home than you” implies that www.spanishsalesdirect.com may well have the winning formula
