Is a viewer a waste of time if they still have to sell their own house?

Is a viewer a waste of time if they still have to sell their own house?

🏑 Feeling a bit stuck with your property on the market? πŸ€” Wondering if it's worth showing your home to buyers who aren't quite ready to purchase? Let's dive into this!

🌟 The thrill of putting your house up for sale is real. 
Each viewing brings a flutter of hope – could this be the one? 
You've done your bit, making your home sparkle and shine, ready for potential buyers to fall head over heels, just like you did.

But what happens when the excitement fades into frustration? 
You've prepped, polished, and waited eagerly for offers that don't come. 

The dream of moving on starts to feel distant, especially when those properties you eyed up are slipping away.


πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ Should you start saying no to viewings from those not ready to buy immediately? 
It's a common question when patience wears thin. But here's the thing – it's not the best move. Why? Because every viewer, ready or not, is a potential future buyer.

🎯 Our goal in selling is to cast the net wide. 
Limiting viewings means limiting potential. 
Imagine a viewer, not quite ready to buy, falling utterly in love with your home. 
They might have hidden resources or be motivated to sell their property quickly. By refusing them a viewing, you'll never know.

πŸ” A savvy estate agent is key. 
They'll vet potential buyers, understanding their position and potential. No, not every viewing guarantees an offer, but no viewings guarantee no offers.

Remember, buyers don't always need to be ready with funds in hand.
If they're captivated by your property, they might find ways to make it work, like dropping their price for a quick sale. 

If viewings are getting you down, or you're considering a switch in agents, our team of property experts is here to help.

In a market where one in three property transactions still fall through before completion, many homeowners and buyers are understandably cautious when it comes to moving forward.
