広い地所 スパイ／執行官s are no 疑問 chomping at the bit to 勧める in a new 急ぐ of 顧客s, 非，不，無 いっそう少なく so than the online スパイ／執行官s such as PurpleBricks and Yopa, which have grown in 人気 over the past few years.

And with people more inclined to stay indoors these days, an スパイ／執行官 that you don't have to 会合，会う 直面する-to-直面する in a high street 支店 may seem more 控訴，上告ing than ever - 特に as most 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 a flat 料金 that can be as low as £99 rather than take （売買）手数料，委託（する）／委員会／権限 that can be several thousands of 続けざまに猛撃するs.?

For those with large savings pots an offset mortgage could save them substantial amounts

?Is it better to use a 伝統的な スパイ／執行官, perhaps at a higher cost, to get a better 取引，協定?

But is using an online 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 when selling a home a 誤った economy, or is it better to use a 伝統的な スパイ／執行官, albeit at a higher cost, to get a better 取引，協定?

We take a look at the プロの／賛成のs and 反対／詐欺s of going online, and what you need to look out for when using an online スパイ／執行官.

What's the difference??

There are a few 重要な differences between online and 伝統的な スパイ／執行官s to 耐える in mind when selling your home.

A 伝統的な high street スパイ／執行官 will 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 you only if you sell, 反して an online スパイ／執行官's 直す／買収する，八百長をするd 料金 often needs to be paid whether you sell or not and could be needed upfront.?

Some 申し込む／申し出 the chance to 支払う／賃金 later, but watch out as this may 要求する 調印 up to a credit 協定.?

料金s can 変化させる from £99 with スパイ／執行官s such as Doorsteps or 99Home, to £999 with better known 会社／堅いs like Purple Bricks or Yopa.

Others 一方／合間 don't 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 anything at all, but instead earn their money from third party companie s.

For example web-based Strike, 以前は House Simple, 申し込む／申し出s a 解放する／自由な-of-告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 service in the North of England which 許すs movers to sell their homes without 支払う／賃金ing any （売買）手数料，委託（する）／委員会／権限.

The types of service that all of these スパイ／執行官s 申し込む／申し出 変化させる 大幅に. Some 申し込む／申し出 簡単に to 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） your 所有物／資産／財産, while others will を取り引きする viewings and 交渉s as a 伝統的な high street 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 would.??

If you are thinking of using an online スパイ／執行官, 二塁打 check on their website the exact service they 申し込む／申し出.?

Also?支払う／賃金 particular attention to the 質 of their photographs and 床に打ち倒す 計画（する）s. These are 決定的な in attracting 買い手s browsing online - 特に now that many 買い手s 選ぶ to 見解（をとる） a 所有物／資産／財産 事実上 before seeing it for themselves.?

Angela Kerr from Homeowners 同盟 said: 'We would always recommend speaking to a few high street スパイ／執行官s to compare 一括s with the online ones.?

'It's also helpful to get a few 地元の スパイ／執行官s giving a valuation of your 所有物／資産／財産, as the online スパイ／執行官s may 欠如（する） knowledge of your 地元の 住宅 market.

'Online 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s are a 広大な／多数の／重要な 選択 for people worried about costs, which could be most people 権利 now, as they are almost always cheaper.'?

Make sure they're 申し込む／申し出ing 事実上の viewings?

The 政府 解除するd its 禁止（する） on 見解（をとる）ing 所有物／資産／財産s 支援する in May but '事実上の' viewings remain a 重要な 構成要素 of the 省 of 住宅's 指導基準s.

Lots of 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s are now 申し込む／申し出ing these viewings, which give 見込みのある 買い手s a ビデオ 小旅行する of the 所有物／資産／財産.

The 政府 says that people should use 事実上の viewings before visiting 所有物／資産／財産s in person where possible, ーするために minimise the 危険 of spreading coronavirus.?

How much people are 現実に に引き続いて this is a 事柄 of 審議.?

However, the coronavirus 見解（をとる）ing 支配するs （問題を）取り上げる time and mean スパイ／執行官s can do より小数の physical viewings in a day.

It's likely that these meas ures will remain in place for the foreseeable 未来.?

Jonathan Hopper of the buying スパイ／執行官s Garrington 所有物／資産／財産 Finders, said: 'In 2020 any 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 価値（がある） their salt is online first and 真っ先の, and the old distinction between 'high street' and 'online' スパイ／執行官s is starting to look a bit 人工的な.

'If you're looking to sell your home and 重さを計るing up the 長所s of different 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s, the 重要な questions to ask are where an スパイ／執行官 is based, what's the 質 of their work like, and how their experience is 関連した to your type of home and area.

'Lockdown 軍隊d many 伝統的な 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s to abandon the 慰安 一面に覆う／毛布 of a high street office. To their surprise, many didn't 行方不明になる it, and some are now 尋問 whether they still need a physical office.

'In 未来 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s are likely to come in two tiers, rather than be high street or online. For 販売人s, it'll be more a 事例／患者 of choosing between an "off the shelf" or a "personalised" service.'

Despite their rise, online estate agents still only have a small share of the overall market

Some （人命などを）奪う，主張する that the problem with a 直す／買収する，八百長をするd 料金 upfront is that there is no incentive for the スパイ／執行官 to sell your house - they've already been paid. You're 基本的に 支払う／賃金ing someone to 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） your home, not sell it, and this is a 賭事.?

Other スパイ／執行官s will tell you that it is their 地元の knowledge and years of experience that you are 支払う／賃金ing for.?

They may 示唆する that they have a 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） of 利益／興味d 買い手s, know the 権利 levers to pull to get your home sold, and are better placed to get the sale all the way through to the all important 完成.?

On the flipside, almost everyone who has ever bought a home will know that not all 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s are good.??

The thing to balance is whether you think a high street スパイ／執行官 will get you a higher price that outweighs the extra money that you will 支払う／賃金 them.?

And if you do 選ぶ for a high street スパイ／執行官, 交渉する on the 料金 - and 潜在的に even ask to cap it.?

Is it 価値（がある） taking a punt????

Some online スパイ／執行官s are 申し込む／申し出ing their services for 解放する／自由な, while others are 極端に cheap compared to 伝統的な スパイ／執行官s.

With this in mind, is it 価値（がある） trying out an online スパイ／執行官, in the knowledge that you can always go to a 伝統的な スパイ／執行官 if it doesn't work out?

Jeremy Leaf, 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 and a former RICS 居住の chairman, 警告するs that this could backfire if your 初期の 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる）ing isn't 定価つきの 正確に.

He said:?'The problem of marketing your home with an online スパイ／執行官 for a low 直す／買収する，八百長をするd 料金 before switching to more 伝統的な 大勝する is that you lose market advantage if your 所有物／資産／財産 is 定価つきの wrongly.?It will not be taken as 本気で when you remarket it.?

'Our experience is that those who overprice from the 手始め nearly always have to 減ずる their price to a level even lower than the 伝統的な スパイ／執行官 示唆するd 初めは to 達成する a sale.'

Angela Kerr from Homeowners 同盟 said: 'To 接近 the best 取引，協定s with online 広い地所 スパイ／執行官s you usually need to 支払う／賃金 upfront, so it's not really something you should just have a punt on as you won't get your £99 支援する if you don't sell.'?

What different services are on 申し込む／申し出?

Each スパイ／執行官 申し込む／申し出s a わずかに different service so it's best to do your 研究 before 選ぶing one.

Yopa for example?申し込む／申し出s a 献身的な 地元の スパイ／執行官 and listings on Rightmove and Zoopla, with professional photographs and adverts, a for sale board, and online dashboard.

目的（とする）d at those who find the idea of a 十分な-on DIY sale a little daunting, Yopa 割り当てるs a 地元の スパイ／執行官 to 販売人s for 直面する-to-直面する valuations and help with 交渉s. If you want them to do viewings it will cost £300 extra however.

When it comes to the 法案 you can 支払う／賃金 upfront or after selling. Yopa markets your 所有物／資産／財産 until it sells but you 支払う／賃金 after six months if it hasn't been sold by then.?

Purple Bricks is the most famous online スパイ／執行官 after a mostly successful marketing 運動.?It was 開始する，打ち上げるd in 2014 by Northern Irish brothers Michael and Kenny Bruce as 'the first 24-hour 広い地所 スパイ／執行官'.?

For an extra £300 - or £399 in London - Purple Bricks will 行為／行う viewings for you.

You get a dashboard on their website where you can 跡をつける viewings and listings on all the 最高の，を越す portals. Unlike some online スパイ／執行官s, which can 取り消す listings after a 確かな time, Purple Bricks markets your 所有物／資産／財産 until it sells.

After the 取引，協定 is done you get a 地位，任命する-sales team 接触する to help you all the way to 完成.

Doorsteps?is one of the cheapest of the online スパイ／執行官s, 申し込む／申し出ing a valuation and marketing on hundreds of websites 含むing Rightmove and Zoopla for just £99.

Most 販売人s will need the £199 一括 which 含むs photos and 床に打ち倒す-計画（する）s but this is still far cheaper than the other スパイ／執行官s.
