Due to the success of SurreyLets, we are launching SurreySales on 14th February 2010.


Our Sales commission until 1st May 2010 is just 0.85% NO VAT

You may ask. “That sounds remarkably good value – how come your fees are so competitive?”

SurreySales is an online property company based in East Horsley. We offer all the services and benefits of an Estate Agency you would see on the High Street, except we don’t have a shop window. This is because statistically reports state up to 80% of people looking to find a home, do so online. Less people rely on local agents windows to source property than ever before. Without shop window overheads we are able to pass our savings directly onto you, the client. So why pay extra for something you don’t need?

SurreySales can offer you:

• The benefit of our experience, so you achieve the best possible price in the best possible time. SurreySales Director has 20 years Estate and Lettings experience.

• Unrivalled advertising on property portals including: www.FindaProperty.com, www.rightmove.co.uk, www.Primelocation.com, www.HomesandProperty.co.uk, ww.FindaNewHome.com,www.globrix.co.uk,www.houseladder.com, www.houserefer.com, www.brightmove.co.uk and our very own site www.surreysalesonline.co.uk which means your property gets the very best coverage

• Modern attractive For Sale boards

• Full online details with a minimum of 10 photos and a floor plan

• Locally based company with locally based staff who know the area and can point out all the amenities and benefits of the property location.

• Members of the Property Ombudsman Scheme for your peace of mind, Full property Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance

I would be delighted to have the opportunity to discuss the marketing of your property with you and to discuss how we are different from other agents. Above all, I would like to be able to demonstrate our service to you personally. Our advice is free and without obligation, our fees are competitive, so for results that will speak for themselves, call us now on 01483 282470

SurreyLets January Newsletter

SurreyLets January Newsletter is now out

Welcome to the SurreyLets January Newsletter.

Happy New Year! Its been off to a rather shaky start with everyone back at work only to find they are once again grounded by the snow. Let's hope today will see the end of the snow and ice and we can all settle back down.

January is one of the busiest ever for enquiries, possibly and this year due to the fact people have had the odd unexpected day off work, we can see they have been browsing the web in their property search and more people than before have registered their details.

Demand is currently very high and is should continue. Lots of changes in the housing market are possible this year, do read my Predictions for 2010 below!

Here's wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous new year and decade ahead

In the meanwhile, if you are thinking of letting or have a property to let, I would be delighted to help you. Please call me on 01483 282 470

Until we speak,



Sally

Google announces launch of free property portal

In July 2009 Google launched a property search feature in Australia using its google map technology which allows people to look for property in their area.



In the UK in excess of 90% of homes for sale and to Let are advertised via the website. Some websites claim as many as 80% of people find a home to let or buy via their websites. This is an ever growing figure.



Currently Agents pay between £325 and £500 per site monthly for sites like Rightmove and Findaproperty, though some lesser known sites are free. If Google launches its service free this will be a massive winner for agents who are currently paying for these sites and will give properties an overall larger coverage from a search.


In a blog written last year by Vanessa Warwick of 4Walls on her Property Tribes site, Vanessa pointed out in great detail that the way we market property was changing pointing out that paper advertising and leafleting are becoming less and less effective.

Without doubt the Internet is providing the opportunities for property marketing, and should google fully embrace the UK market, its a step I will certainly welcome
