Selling Fast

Should you take the first offer when you need the money fast?

Short answer: Not automatically, because the first offer is often not the best, but when you are short of time it is worth asking at least two or three buyers at once and choosing between them, since this takes little extra time and can make a real difference to the price, while holding out for the very best offer is probably not worth losing the speed you wanted.

The cost of the first offer

A single quote tells you nothing about what else is available, and the gap between buyers can be significant.

The cheap way to compare

Sending your details to several buyers at once takes the same time as asking one, and gives you a real comparison.

Know your limit

Decide in advance how much speed is worth, so you do not spend the whole day chasing a small difference.
