Selling your home...
-
paragraph
What I stand for...Over the years, I have observed a market-wide decline in personal service provided to both vendors and buyers. The sale of property has become too mercenary; the drive for numbers is too prevalent and personal service has been lost. My clients have told me that they have valued the personal attention and professional advice that I have given them, during such a complex and often stressful process.
In my view, your Estate Agent should be a trusted adviser, in the same way you have a relationship with your Lawyer, Dentist, Doctor or Accountant. Your Estate Agent should help you obtain the best value for your property, facilitate the purchase of your next family home and mitigate the risk for you when undertaking a large investment. Why would you trust that to someone with whom you don't have a relationship?

The journey to completion...The process of selling and / or buying a property is a complex one; prone to delay and stress, especially if there is a chain.
From the point at which one decides to sell their property, to the point when they hand over their keys, is what I call the Journey to Completion. Often, finding a buyer is just the beginning of the journey. Having one experienced individual handling the sales process rather than alot of inexperienced staff your will protect your interests throughout that journey.
During the sale I will work with you and your conveyancing team to guide you to making the best decisions when necessary. Many Estate Agents will leave their customers to the vagaries of this process, some passing the file to a third party 'contracts chaser', who will not have a relationship with either the buyer or the seller. This could lead to the sale falling through and I see my role as your trusted adviser as an intrinsic part of the process.

My experience...With 33 years' experience in estate agency, I have attained considerable recognition in residential sales and investment property, the Thames Valley and London. A long-time Henley resident, I am involved in many local and civil initiatives and I am well-known among my network of contacts.
I have a select network of trusted colleagues who are on hand, if required, to assist in the sale or purchase of your home. These trusted colleagues are well-regarded and highly knowledgable in local estate agency. They include solicitors, surveyors, mortgage lenders, estate agents, builders, architects and planning consultants
-
paragraph
Free Market Appraisal...I have an excellent track-record of pricing property accurately. My market appraisals are based on extensive research for local equivalent properties that have recently sold, so that each valuation is based on up to date market evidence . With the right approach to marketing, a property should be sold at the best price , within the sellers desired time frame . In a competitive market place some estate agents will inflate asking prices to win the instruction to sell your home. Although it can be quite flattering to hear your home may achieve a higher value, over valuing will ultimately lead to disappointment and a drawn-out sales process.

Seller Testimonial
...in-depth knowledge of the local marketPhilip Booth provided excellent service and advice when I recently sold property through his agency.
He was very helpful with an in-depth knowledge of the local market. He ensured that things remained on track and that sales progressed smoothly.
His style of communication and professional approach were reassuring and I always felt confident that any issues would be resolved quickly.
I would definitely recommend his agency to either buyers or sellers and would not hesitate to use his agency again in the future -
Seller Testimonial
...other local agents failedNot only did Phil manage to sell my my home where other local agents failed, he was an absolutely pleasure to deal with. Always on hand for support, guidance and advice. -
Seller Testimonial
...you went 'that extra mile'Both Margaret and I were thrilled with your handling of the sale of our house.
You did not stop once you found a buyer but liaised continuously with conveyancing solicitors and all parties in the chain and kept us, as well as other interested persons, fully informed.
In our absence from the country you handled without hesitation the repeat visits by the buyer to take measurements and show off their new home to their family.
We feel that you went 'that extra mile' and would have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and acquaintances. -

Seller Testimonial
Phil gave us good advice...I asked the Henley Recommendations group, on Facebook, to recommend an estate agent to sell my Dad's house. It was a very long very interesting thread.
We chose Philip Booth Esq. Phil gave us good advice, a competitive fee, he was supportive through all the difficult moments at a family milestone. We made a plan about how to sell the house, he carried it out with flair and then he closed the deal.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Phil Booth -
Seller Testimonial
...a very nice human being!The most notable thing about Phil is that when you discuss things with him, it doesn't feel like you're speaking to an "Estate Agent", just a very nice human being!
We took his advice, and sold our house within days, at a very good price. -
Seller Testimonial
...a first class estate agentWithout hesitation I highly recommend Philip Booth Esq. as a first class estate agent in Henley on Thames.
We became a client of Phil's to sell our much loved house. Phil took the time to get to know us & our house, & more importantly to me my beloved cat.......! Phil is very thoughtful when doing viewings, arranging mutually agreeable viewing times & leaving the house exactly how it was found, once the viewings are finished Phil will notify you that he has left your home & will then continue to give constructive feed-back.
Phil is also an exceptional sounding board for all those house related wobbles you may have along the way.......he gives great honest advice.
Once Phil has found you your buyer he will continue to support you until completion. -
Seller Testimonial
Phil is definitely the best!I would highly recommend Philip Booth as an estate agent. His approach to selling was unique and far more effective than his competitors.
We felt that we really had a personal service from him and that he truly cared about us. He was always prompt, efficient, friendly and helpful whenever we contacted him and very calming during the stress of the whole process, don't try any other agent...Phil is definitely the best! -
Seller Testimonial
I would highly recommend Phil BoothI would highly recommend Phil Booth, who successfully sold my property. He was very courteous, professional and informative in dealing with the sale -
Seller Testimonial
...happy to provide our personal recommendation..We were recommended to Phil and any concerns about not going with a recognised International Brand were quickly defused by his approachability, low pressure technique and calming style. It is these qualities which persuaded us to retain him to sell our property in Maidenhead, as well as help identify our property in Henley.
His personal touch at being at each viewing, in addition to ensuring consistency as regards showing, was, we are sure, significant in selling our property in a difficult, immediate post-Brexit era.
Being involved at two properties in a chain, also helped move things along. We are very happy to provide our personal recommendation to consider Phil to potential vendors or buyers. -
Seller Testimonial
The service he provided was impeccable...Philip Booth was recommended to us by a neighbour as an independent estate agent.
Whilst most estate agents are, as one would expect, personable, keep their clients informed, etc., Phil brought much more. He was thoughtful, apparently always available, very willing to discuss all aspects of the sale and innovative in finding prospective buyers.
The service he provided was impeccable and we recommend him to anyone wishing to sell their home in the Henley area.
