I saw Oakwood estates when I was first looking to sell my property but initially went with another agent as they had suggested a higher price and I was trying to maximise what I could get
It didn’t work with that agent so I went back to Oakwood estates
Previously I didn’t have a for sale board but did with Oakwood estates and this was put up on a Friday with the view to the house sale going live on the following Monday
There were several properties for sale in my road at the time and a prospective buyer who had come to view another house saw the sign outside my house and knocked to view and made an offer the following Monday
I don’t feel that the agent did have to do very much to sell the property but guess not their fault it was just that the board made a difference

Of the 4 agents I got valuations from - they had the best statistics on 'get agent' for the quickest sale time and were also high on list in terms of number of properties sold in that area in the last 6 months - which is why I chose them - and I haven't been disappointed. They are certainly proactive and have a good database of potential buyers.... Read more

Little disappointed couldn’t sell our home or others at the same price,asking even when we dropped the price twice.
All four bedroom homes in this area are asking the same price. They seem to only sell cheaper properties mostly semi detached.... Read more
