What’s the Difference between an Estate Agent and a Chartered Surveyor?
While both are essential to property transactions, estate agents and chartered surveyors have different functions. For the most part, estate agents are the ones who mediate the buying and selling, using their knowledge of market conditions to advise on pricing and negotiation.
Whereas a chartered surveyor, especially one that’s RPSA, CIOB or RICS-approved, undertakes a more rigorous approach, going into the important details of a property and considering various, complex elements to arrive at a figure that truly represents the property’s value in its current condition, given its location, and in consideration of the past, present, and future.
Determining the Worth of Your Canterbury Home
There are several factors that influence the value of your Canterbury property. Its location, condition, market trends right now, and the property’s interior layout will all factor into its value.
Role of Property Management Firms
More than simply collecting rent, a property manager maintains a property and ensures the tenants are happy with their living space. This can involve anything from an apartment to an office building or a mansion. There are professional property management companies that specialise in this kind of work.
How does the inside of my home affect its value?
Your property’s interior design plays a huge role in determining its price. An property that matches the current trends and/or demand will fetch a higher value.
Using Canterbury Property Knowledge
Are you moving to Canterbury or relocating within it? A local expert is certainly handy. That’s because moving is difficult enough even without the legal, financial and construction aspects.
