An Extra £145,000 For Vendor Selling Bayswater Property With Chard

Property for sale close to Hyde Park brings out bidders!

Chard's Bayswater sales team based at their Notting Hill and Kensington offices on Notting Hill Gate received a call from a vendor selling a maisonette in Westbourne Street, W2.

He had an offer on the table via another London estate agent at £725,000 and wanted to know if this was "in the ball park". Mark Sommerville, the area sales manager visited the flat for sale in Bayswater and recommended an asking price of £850,000 based on the fact that he knew there were multiple applicants registered with Chard looking for similar properties for sale in Bayswater and the Hyde Park area.

The vendor was cautious, and concerned about stories of estate agents over valuing to secure instructions. However Mark was able to reassure him and within two weeks had an offer of £850,000 on the table. Chard was then able to secure interest from three separate bidders in order to identify the buyer at both the optimum price and just as importantly one likely to lead to a succesful and timely exchange.

Within two months - start to finish - Chard has now exchanged the property at £870,000. That's an extra £145,000. Not bad for a simple phone call!
