What you get when you sell with us.
Give your home the right start and know where you stand throughout the sale, with honest advice and support until the keys are handed over.
Professional photography
Your home needs to catch a buyer’s attention before they book a viewing. Professional photography brings its space and best features into focus, helping buyers picture themselves living there.
Premium marketing
Your home deserves to be seen by people ready to move. Premium marketing across property portals and social media helps it stand out and gives interested buyers a reason to enquire.
Informed offer decisions
The highest offer is only part of the picture. Clear viewing feedback and checks on each buyer’s position help you weigh up their offer, finances and timing before you decide.
Clear weekly updates
You should not have to chase your agent to find out what is happening. Weekly updates keep you informed about enquiries and viewings, with advice when your sale needs an adjustment.
Support until completion
An agreed offer is a big step, but there is still work ahead. Regular follow-up with buyers and solicitors helps address delays and keeps you informed until the keys change hands.

Stuck on the market?
When the enquiries slow down and your next move feels further away, it can be hard to know what to change. We’ll help you take a fresh look at what buyers are seeing.
Before recommending a reduction, we review your asking price alongside the photographs, listing details and viewing feedback. Then we explain what we would change and why.
If your listing is getting little interest, read our guide to why your home might not be getting views on Rightmove and what to check next.
A fresh look at your sale
- Price and competition. How does your home compare with recent sales and similar properties buyers can view today?
- Presentation. Do the photographs and description help buyers understand the home and its best features?
- Enquiries and feedback. Where is interest dropping away, and what are viewers telling you?
- Your next step. We agree a practical plan, with clear advice on timing and your existing agent agreement.

A few questions before you book.
What happens at a free valuation?
We visit your home, talk through your plans and explain our suggested asking price using recent local sales and current competition. We also explain the marketing, fees and next steps, so you can decide whether to instruct us.
Can I speak to you if my home is already on the market?
Yes. We can discuss your current listing, viewing feedback and what might help. Before changing agents, check the notice period and terms of your existing agreement. We can plan the timing of a new launch around that.
Will I have to reduce my asking price?
A price change is one possibility, but we first look at the evidence. Presentation, listing details, buyer enquiries and viewing feedback all matter. We explain what we recommend and why, then agree a plan with you.
Which areas do you cover?
Our focus is Gateshead and surrounding areas, including Dunston, Wardley, Leam Lane, Lobley Hill and Low Fell. Contact the team if you would like to discuss a home elsewhere in the North East.
Am I committing to sell by booking a valuation?
No. The valuation gives you the information to consider your next move. We explain our service and fees before you decide whether to instruct us.
