Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to sell a house in the UK?

Most sellers spend roughly 1.5% to 3% of the sale price once the agent, solicitor, EPC, mortgage fees and removals are added together.

Are estate agent fees negotiable?

Yes. Fees vary with the agent, the area, the price and whether you choose sole or multi-agency. Ask what is included before you compare.

Is an estate agent valuation free?

Usually, yes. An agent's valuation is a free opinion of the likely price. A formal RICS valuation for legal or tax purposes is a paid report.
