London offers a plethora of amazing areas to live in, but what we usually find is the deciding factor in the end is not only the benefits of the area itself, but also the commute to work, schools and what fits within the budget.

Finding Out What Your Property is Worth

The value of your property will depend on many things; what street and postcode the property is located on, what services are included in the building, the competition on the market and most important the demand.

When choosing an estate agent, it is important to focus on what it is you want to achieve with your property. Is it a high price, a quick sale or the right tenant? You will find many estate agents in Chelsea, Belgravia and South Kensington that offers free valuations, but it might be harder to find an estate agent who can adapt around your personal needs and deliver the specific service you are looking for.

Not all agencies will be able to offer top tier property management for rental properties, vacant property management for your home when you are not there or create a tailormade tenancy agreement. This is where Quintessentially Estates is one of the Belgravia estate agents that stands out.

When deciding the value of our clients’ properties we take their needs into consideration and trying to look at the bigger picture, in order to provide them with a service that is beyond the usual Chelsea estate agents. Adding our many years of experience to the individualised approach, is what we believe makes a successful estate agent.

Renting Out Your Property in Belgravia

But the answer is simple; The tricky part is not finding a tenant or a buyer for your home, it is when something goes wrong.

When you use a knowledgeable estate agent, you can lean back, knowing that someone with the right experience will make sure that your tenancy agreement is up to date, your deposit is registered, the property ombudsman is at hand and that the let complies with client money protection regulations and is in line with all necessary legislation.

The fees will vary among the different agents in Chelsea and the immediate surroundings such as Belgravia and Knightsbridge. What fees the different agents can offer depends on the size of the agent and the different services they provide, such as management, block management, e-valuation tools, and different property services.

The services the different agents can provide varies a lot and so does the fees that are being charged for the service.
