How to best use our data when booked in valuations, speaking to clients or prospective buyers
First we need to get to the property record. If you are unsure how to do this please see the link below
How to find a property on Homesearch
Once you are on the property record you will have all the information you will need to get an insight into the property
Booking in a valuation
Firstly you can see the property on google street view and also satellite view which also gives you the property boundary. Make refence to this when speaking to the vendor/ Landlord 'I know exactly where you are you have the white picket fence and the red front door' You may have never heard/ stepped foot on the road before but with the help of Homesearch the client doesn't know that.. Use this information to impress them and get ahead of your competitors.
We then have the main data about the home, the type of property, tenure, when it was last sold, bedrooms, square footage, plot size... The list goes on as you can see!
This then takes you onto a detailed view of the property history so you can see all recorded transactions and price. Make a comment about how long they have been in their home for. 'I understand you have been in the property for almost 10 years, whats your reason for booking a valuation?'
If its a property On The Market we even tell you the listing history such as when it was instructed, price reduced, sold, fallen through
As we saw above there were 3 planning applications against this address so if you keep scrolling you can see these in more detail. You can make a comment on this, they may have had some work done to the property and wanted an up to date valuation.
Speaking to Buyers on the phone/ on viewings
When speaking to buyers you can use the above information to help. Further information buyers would also find useful is on the right hand side of the screen you can see details of amenities such as transport link, schools, supermarkets and lifestyle. This information is also useful when when speaking to prospective buyers who are new to the area.
You can create a 'Buyers Guide' that you can send to all prospective buyers please see how to do this below
