Selling your home can be a daunting process, but choosing the right estate agent makes all the difference. At Alexander Seymour, we’re proud to be the leading independent agent in the area, with deep-rooted ties to the local community.

What’s Next?
Whether you’re buying, selling, or just considering your options, we’re here to help. Need a valuation? Want some tailored advice? Contact Alexander Seymour today and let our experienced team guide you through the process.
In the meantime, here’s an overview of what to expect when selling with us:
1. Valuation
The first step in selling your property is obtaining an accurate valuation. At Alexander Seymour, we provide free, honest, and no-obligation appraisals based on:
- Our deep local knowledge
- Real-time market data from our extensive database of sold properties
- A transparent and realistic approach to pricing
As the area’s leading agent, we consistently achieve the best prices for our clients by combining our expertise with a sharp understanding of buyer behaviour and market trends.
2. Instructing Us as Your Agent
Once you’re happy with the valuation, we’ll start preparing your property for the market.
We’ll create bespoke marketing materials that showcase your home’s best features, including:
- Professional, full-colour photography
- Accurate, detailed floorplans
- A handy printed brochure booklet for each property, highlighting key selling points for viewings and enquiries
As a proudly independent agency, we’re able to offer a more personalised service, free from the constraints of corporate structures. Your property is never just a number to us—it’s a story we help sell.
To comply with legal requirements, we’ll ask for proof of ID and address. These checks are in place to protect you and ensure that every transaction is handled responsibly. Your data is always treated with the strictest confidence.
3. Keeping You Informed
Our hands-on, transparent sales management ensures that you’re always in the loop. We keep you fully updated throughout the process, handling all communication between:
- Buyers
- Solicitors
- Surveyors
- Mortgage brokers
Our aim? To keep things moving, keep you informed, and keep stress levels low.
4. Handling Offers
As soon as we receive an offer, you’ll be notified verbally and in writing. Our experienced negotiators will:
- Qualify all potential buyers
- Provide honest advice about each offer
- Negotiate on your behalf to secure the best possible outcome
If you have a preferred timeline, just let us know—we’ll do our best to accommodate your goals.
5. Sale Agreed
Once an offer is accepted, the legal work begins.
You’ll need to instruct a solicitor (we’re happy to recommend trusted local firms). The buyer will arrange a survey, and their mortgage offer will be processed—both subject to the results of the survey.
Your solicitor will:
- Request title deeds (from your lender or you directly)
- Prepare and send the Draft Contract
- Respond to legal enquiries and coordinate searches
Once everything is in order, contracts are signed by both parties.
6. Exchange of Contracts
Once the buyer’s solicitor has received their mortgage offer and cleared funds, we’ll agree on a completion date and move to exchange contracts. This legally binds the sale.
7. Completion Day
On the agreed day, your solicitor will confirm when the completion funds have been received—usually around lunchtime. We’ll then contact the buyer to hand over the keys and officially finalise your sale.
Ready to Make Your Move?
At Alexander Seymour, we combine honest valuations, unrivalled local insight, and a proven track record of achieving the best results for our clients. As the leading independent agent in the area, we take pride in offering a service that’s personal, professional, and built on trust.
