Is it time to change agents ?

Deciding whether it's time to change estate agents is an important decision that depends on various factors. Here are some indicators that might suggest it's time for a change:

Lack of Communication: If your current agent is not keeping you informed about the progress of your property sale or providing updates on market activities, it could be a sign of poor communication.

Ineffective Marketing: If your property has been on the market for an extended period without significant interest, it might be worth reassessing the marketing strategies employed by your current agent.

Unsatisfactory Results: If your property has not received offers or the offers received are significantly below your expectations, it might be time to explore alternative approaches.

Mismatched Goals: If your agent's goals and strategies don't align with your objectives, whether it's in terms of pricing, timing, or marketing approach, it could lead to frustration.

Lack of Local Expertise: If your agent lacks knowledge about the local market conditions, recent sales, and neighborhood dynamics, it may hinder their ability to effectively position your property.

Unprofessional Conduct: Any unprofessional conduct, such as not respecting agreed-upon terms, failing to meet deadlines, or displaying a lack of integrity, may warrant a reconsideration.

Limited Availability: If your agent is consistently unavailable or unresponsive, it can be a source of frustration, especially during critical stages of the selling process.

Change in Circumstances: If your circumstances change, such as needing to sell quickly or experiencing a shift in your priorities, it may be necessary to reassess your agent's ability to meet your updated requirements.

Thinking of renting out your home? With major rental reforms arriving in 2026, the days of private, informal lettings are over. Here’s what every homeowner needs to know to stay compliant, protected and prepared.

When planning a move it’s easy to focus on the big numbers, sale price, stamp duty, legal fees. But removal costs are often overlooked, and without careful planning, they can come as an unwelcome surprise.

Rental demand remains resilient in early 2026, but growth has moderated. For landlords, spring is less about reacting and more about refining strategy.
