General Questions & Answers
IS MY ADVERT FREE?
Yes it is, with the first photograph free. Additional photographs are £2.00 each.
HOW LONG WILL MY ADVERT STAY ON THE Free Property Ad WEBSITE?
It will stay until sold.
You have total control over your advert. You will have a seller/agent account where you can logon 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can make any changes
to your house specification, such as the general description, or even change your photos. These changes take immediate effect on Free Property Ad.
During the creation of your advert YOU decide how you wish buyers and tenants to contact you. Once you have an interested party you can then arrange
a viewing with them directly: i.e. no middle man.
WHAT IF I ALREADY HAVE AN ESTATE AGENT?
This is a common question. If you are already with an estate agent you will have a contract between yourself and the
estate agent. There are 4 types as follows:
1. 'Sole selling/letting' means your estate agent is the only one with the right to sell or let your house. Even if you find
a buyer or tenant yourself, you'll still have to pay the agent.
2. 'Sole agency' also means the estate agent is the only one with the right to sell or let your house, but if you find a
buyer or tenant yourself you won't have to pay the agent.
3. 'Multi agency' means you can choose several estate agents to market your house, but you will only have to pay
commission to the one who sells or lets it.
4. 'Ready, willing and able purchaser' is a contract. If the estate agent finds you a buyer and you later withdraw from
the sale, you'll still have to pay them.
As we are not an estate agent and your contract is either 2, 3 or 4 then you can still use our services and sell or let your properties privately.
WHAT DOES AN ESTATE AGENT DO?
An estate agent is basically the middle man as all legalities are carried out by your solicitor. Once you have a buyer you instruct your solicitor who will then do
the following:
1. Conveyance (the legal process of selling your house).
2. Draw up a contract for the transaction.
3. Answer any basic questions that the buyer’s solicitor may ask, such as listing the items that are staying when you sell your house.
After the buyer’s solicitor has completed all the required searches you are then both ready to sign, agree on a completion date and exchange the contracts.
As you can see, an estate agent has nothing to do during this whole selling or letting process.
I HAVE LOST MY PASSWORD?
No problem. Simply email us and we will reset it and issue you with a new one.
IF I HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDED BY AN AGENT SHOULD I TYPE IN THE AGENT’S "ID NUMBER"?
Yes, you should do this, to enable your agent to take care of you.
