Q&A on Readings Property Group
  • paragraph

    "Who are you?"

    We're proud of the fact that we have a pedigree and heritage with roots back to 1935. This makes us not only one of the largest, but one of the longest established independent estate agents in Leicester.

  • paragraph

    "Great - how does that benefit me?"
    Easy. Although we feel that 'a one stop shop for all your property needs' sounds a bit corporate (heaven forbid - something we'll never be), it actually sums up what we do quite nicely.
  • paragraph

    "OK - so what do you do?"
    In a nutshell, we sell property, we let property, we value property, we survey property, we auction property; we do just about everything regarding property. In fact, we put great property on the map!
  • paragraph

    "How?"
    We love what we do. We employ some of the best property people in Leicester. We've been doing it for a long time. We've evolved over the years to embrace some of the most innovative ways to offer our clients a great service. We know what we're talking about. We tell the truth - even if it's painful to hear sometimes. We think we've got the best staff and premises in the city. We can handle just about any property related enquiry.
  • paragraph

    So, how are we different?
    Simple, we do what we are asked to do, when we are asked to do it. We tell the truth, based on our many years' experience of the local market. We're enthusiastic about your property. We'll see your transaction through from start to finish in a calm, efficient manner. We think that you'll be hard pushed to find a more experienced Estate Agent in Leicester. We only employ staff who share in our desire to succeed for our customers. We're aware that we are judged on results, which is why we offer 'No Sale, No Fee' agency agreements.

Why sell your property with Readings?
  • paragraph

    No matter what type of property you have, the right buyer is there for it. That's all very well but only if you can find them and they can find you. We believe passionately that we are the best agent to bring you both together: a matchmaker for sellers and buyers.

    We don't want to use the usual Estate Agent clichés when we deal with you. As James Court, our Director who heads up our Sales Team says:

    "Every property is great...whether it's a mansion in the country, or a block of garages in the city centre. A large period home in the city or a studio flat- they are all great to someone. That's why you need to deal with a great agent who knows what they are talking about, in a friendly, polite manner - and Readings should be the first people you contact."

  • paragraph

    Our "For Sale" boards stand out from the crowd...
    Everybody's talking about our eye-catching 'map pin' For Sale boards, which are popping up all over the city and county. We think they're the best looking boards in Leicestershire, but then we are biased.

    Chartered Surveyors

    As members of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), our team of chartered surveyors know what to look for when it comes to understanding the condition of a property that you are looking to buy, rent or sell. We can discuss which survey is right for you, cutting through all the jargon and giving you what you really need.

    We'll help you find out the essentials about your property, whether you're looking to buy, rent or sell. If there's rot, we'll spot it, and if your dream home has hidden nightmares, we'll make sure you're prepared. Some problems might affect its sales price, others may make it trickier to sell in the future, or rent at the price you want. We'll help you avoid missing costly defects: forewarned is forearmed.

    Housing can be complex, and your home is likely to be one of the biggest investments you make. We can help you understand the reality of the situation, so you can avoid making any expensive mistakes.

    Readings offer different levels of survey reports. The various types of survey have been designed to suit the type of property you're interested in. For example, a new build shouldn't need a complete building survey unless you are planning major works. There are three different types of RICS approved reports we provide. We are happy to talk through the option that would be best for you as it can be hard to decide, particularly if you're new to property.

    RICS Condition Report - Choose this report if you are looking at a newer home.

    RICS Homebuyer Report - Choose this report if you are buying a conventional house, flat or bungalow in a reasonable condition.

    RICS Building Survey - Choose this report if you are dealing with larger, older, run down properties, or you are planning major works.

      positive attitude and encouragement kept me going!
      I would like to thank your team and particularly yourself for all your help with the sale of mother's house.
