Presentation, presentation, presentation: David James’ marketing materials make all the difference

Having initially arranged several valuations on their Carlton property, when Nicola Brittain and her partner Jonathan came to put their home on the market a year later, David James was the only choice.

“We’d thought about moving for about a year before we went on the market, and had invited several agents – both online and traditional – to conduct valuations. Having seen a neighbouring property receive significant interest and sell quickly through David James, we made sure they were on our list. We were very impressed by Jason’s approach – not only was he clearly highly experienced, we appreciated his honesty on what we could expect to achieve and areas where we could make improvements to make our property as attractive as possible to prospective buyers.

“When we finally came to place our home on the market, we didn’t contact any other agents – we simply called David James due to the good experience we’d had.

“We were very impressed by the quality of the marketing materials produced by David James, especially the photos which were exceptional. We’d presented the house well, but Jason’s commitment was outstanding – he spent two hours rearranging our belongings, and really did make it look like a show home. This expertise had a huge role to play in the high levels of interest we received.

“Having gone on the market in the evening, we had five viewings booked in by the next morning, and in fact we had over 20 viewings overall. We had so much interest that we turned to Natasha to offer her advice on how best to proceed. With three asking price offers on the table, she recommended best and final offers, and we sold for £7,000 over the asking price.

“We would absolutely recommend David James, and in fact already have. We experienced great service all the way through, with the team taking away any anxiety that we had. The communication was outstanding – nothing was too much trouble and they guided us through every stage. We really were in excellent hands and can’t thank them enough – and the extra money we secured through our sale has been an added, and very helpful, bonus!”
