You can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"find-out-the-estimated-value-of-your-home\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find out the estimated value of your home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the first things you can do is get an estimated value of your home. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/house-value.html?utm_medium=content&amp;utm_campaign=instantval&amp;utm_source=newsguides&amp;utm_content=article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enter your postcode to get an Instant Valuation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2018ll be able to see if your home\u2019s value has changed, and how much properties nearby have recently sold for. And every month, the estimate is refreshed, which you can see by setting up alerts or viewing your tracked properties within <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/login.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">My Rightmove<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"check-sold-house-prices\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Check sold house prices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This will tell you what has been sold locally to you and where the property has been listed on Rightmove, show the property details and photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a aria-label=\"Explore Sold Prices (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/house-prices.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Explore Sold Prices<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"request-an-agent-valuation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Request an agent valuation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Connects you with local agents who will be able to give you an up to date, accurate valuation for your property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a aria-label=\"Get started with agent valuation (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/property-valuation.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get started with agent valuation<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"setting-your-asking-price\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Setting your asking price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the pricing right for your home is one of the areas where a good agent can add significant value. Getting the pricing wrong can result in you losing money, or potential buyers. If a home is overpriced and it doesn\u2019t sell, you may then need to significantly reduce the price to create interest. On the other hand, if you price the property too low, you risk not achieving the best price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price at which you should market the property is normally a combination of elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"your-motivation-when-selling\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your motivation when selling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the pricing will reflect your own motivation for selling. If you need to sell quickly to achieve other goals in your life you may price the property more keenly, or if you are willing to wait until the right buyer who\u2019s willing to pay the right price comes along, you may put the price slightly higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Life events such as marriages, births, divorces or the death of a family member, will often be a trigger to move and create greater urgency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"what-comparable-properties-in-the-area-have-sold-for\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What comparable properties in the area have sold for<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing what property has sold for in your local area will give you a guide to a base level for your pricing and this will feed into the other factors. It will also give a guide as to the general levels of interest in each property type in your neighbourhood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are multiple Rightmove tools which can give you a good indication of the potential value of your home both now, and in the future.
