Traditional Sale

(Estate Agent Route)

Sometimes the traditional route is the right one.

If achieving the highest possible open market price is your priority and timescales are flexible, selling through a local estate agent may be the best solution.

At Cubix Property we believe in recommending the option that best suits your circumstances – even if that means a traditional sale.

When is a Traditional Sale the Right Choice?

A traditional sale involves marketing your property through an estate agent to achieve the best possible market price.While this route may achieve the highest price, it often includes:

Estate Agency Commission

Typically 1–3% of the sale price plus VAT.

Property Viewings

Your home will be viewed by multiple potential buyers.

Buyer Chains

Chains can cause delays or even collapse.

Completion Uncertain

No guaranteed completion date until exchange of contracts.

Conveyancing Timescales

The legal process can take several weeks or months.

Vacant Possession Often Required

You may need to move out on completion day.
