WHY USE HALFAPERCENT?

The Basics - Currently over 80% of UK and over 90% of London property enquiries start with a search conducted online. Founded in 1999, Halfapercent saw the importance of property's relationship with the web. As a result, our experience and technology provide our customers with unrivalled service and value for money.

Transparency - We offer the highest quality property details so that buyers get to know your property intimately before conducting a viewing. We offer virtual tours, full colour photography, measurements and floor plans on nearly all properties. We believe in transparency and where other agents will 'tart up' details, we don't like to waste time.

Low Cost - We offer the lowest rates of commission in Highbury and the Southeast. We do this by cutting out the unnecessary expenses associated with running more than one high street agency. We never cut corners on service, we wouldn't be in business if we did. See what our clients have to say about our service.

Advertising - We work in partnership with the top 15 leading property portals in the UK, have an email database of around 15,000+ buyers and tenants at any time and advertise in the press. We work hard and smart to get your property in front of the right people.

Our Team - Our team of estate and lettings agents is comprised of highly trained, experienced professionals. We promise to support you throughout the entire process of selling your property.

THE SELLING PROCESS

	Value Your Property Our valuation service is conducted in partnership with Hometrack. We also suggest that you obtain valuations from your local agents.

	Initiation If you are happy that our service is right for you, proceed to the registration section where you can fill in your details. If you are still unsure about anything then please mail us vendor@halfapercent.com or ring us on 0871 424 0 131.

	Contact Once we have received your details we will ring to go through them and resolve any outstanding details. We will then arrange a convenient time for our digital imaging team to visit your property. This usually takes 3/4 of an hour depending on the size of your property. They will take virtual tours, photographs and floor plans.

	Marketing When our team returns with your data, we create your property profile and on receipt of any monies due will begin to market your property.

	Monitoring and feedback During the sales process you will have access to relevant information such as the amount of virtual viewings we have conducted through your profile. We will send you regular email updates of any developments and our staff are here for you should there be anything you wish to discuss.

	Viewings Interested parties contact us if they wish to arrange a viewing. We make certain they are matched to your requirements and that they are genuinely interested in your property. We do this to avoid conducting any unnecessary viewings. You will be informed when there is a viewing request via email, SMS or telephone.

	Offers When an offer is made to us by a potential tenant, our expert negotiators work tirelessly with you to ensure progress towards the right deal in all respects. When you accept an offer, letters are sent to you, the buyer and the respective solicitors. Sales letters and memorandums are drafted by us.

	Conveyancing Once the buyer's solicitor has checked all relevant documentation, any omissions are raised and a local authority search is initiated.

	Survey A surveyor will be appointed by the buyer or their lender. The survey establishes the structural integrity of the building and it's value. Mortgage offers will be issued within ten days of the survey.

	Exchange of contracts Your solicitor will report to you with the contract when ready for signing. You then have to agree a completion date with your purchaser or their solicitor. If you are in a chain, a simultaneous exchange with your next purchase carried out using the deposit from your sale?

	Completion Completion usually can only take place between 9am and 3pm on a weekday. Congratulations! Our fees should be paid by your solicitor from the sale proceeds.

THE BUYING PROCESS

	Property Details As a buyer you will either find our property in our sales property section, or on one of our portal partner property websites, or through our email updates for registered members. If you have found the property on a portal site, please make sure that you are well acquainted with the property details on our site. We provide floor plans, virtual tours, photography and full descriptions as opposed to the sometimes limited range of information elsewhere.

	Calculate your finances Before you do anything, speak to our 'whole of market' mortgage broker who will find you the cheapest and most appropriated arrangement in your circumstances, click here to read more

	Instruct a solicitor It is important to have a solicitor in place who is based within easy reach and knows your target area. You should choose a solicitor with experience in property conveyancing. If you would like we would be more than happy to recommend one to you. (mail us: ys@halfapercent.com).

	Arrange a viewing Before you arrange a viewing, you must be registered with us, with your full details filled in. Our vendors do the majority of their own viewings and as we hope you understand they expect us to pre-qualify any potential buyer. When you find a property that you wish to view, simply click on the arrange a viewing button or ring us on 0871 424 0 424. When organising a viewing we request that you provide us with a number of time and date options that are convenient to you and in line with the vendor's availability.

	Viewing confirmation To confirm a viewing we send you a confirmation email and an SMS reminder giving you the date, time, full address, map and contact details together with any further instructions. If you prefer, we are more than happy to use telephone or fax.

	The viewing Please make sure that if you have any problems in making your viewing that you give us as much notice as possible. After the viewing we will send you a request for feedback, which we would ask you to fill in promptly.

	Making an offer If you like the property and wish to make an offer, please ring or email us at the office as soon as possible. Please do not make an offer directly to the vendor.

	Offer acceptance On acceptance of your offer we ask you to supply us with any outstanding information. Terms of the agreed sale are then drafted by us. (sales memorandum)

	Survey Your lender will usually arrange for a survey, so contact them. Once the survey has been done, your lender should approve or reject the mortgage offer within 3-10 days. If you are a fully cash buyer, you should arrange for your own survey to be done by a Chartered Surveyor. See the RICS website (www.rics.org)

	Conveyancing The solicitor will respond to enquiries raised within the 'Sellers Pack' which comprises: contract, vendors questionnaire form, fixtures and fittings form, planning consent, buildings regulations, guarantees and in the case of leasehold properties - Accounts, projected future works to the property etc. When the solicitor is satisfied with the purchase, a report is sent to you.

	Local Authority Search Instruct your solicitor to carry out the local authority search. This is submitted to the local council and establishes any current planning or other local issues.

	Exchange of contracts Once the contract is ready to sign you will be required to put down a deposit, usually 10% of the purchase price. This will be handled by your solicitor, as will the setting of a completion date. Upon completion you have to pay the stamp duty.

	Completion This occurs a short time after the exchange of contracts. Any outstanding money will be paid by your solicitor to the vendor's solicitor so reach for the Champagne!

MARKETING FOR SALE / TO LET BOARDS

'Lollypop' Board:
The Lollypop board is erected to a post or fence and is the Tallest board known in the Estate agency world. Lollypop boards are used for ground floor properties, houses and on retaining walls or railings.

'V' Board:
The 'V' boards are attached to the exterior of the property and are commonly used on flats and apartments on the first floor and above.

BOARDS FOR ADVERTISING

'For sale' boards or 'to let' boards are a great means of advertising a property within the local area. When marketing a property, unless instructed otherwise, we will always erect a 'for sale' / 'to let' board outside each property at our expense.

For sales properties: Once a property has received an offer we will change the board slip to read 'under offer'. Once contracts have been exchanged we will change the 'slip to read 'SOLD'. On completion we will remove the board.

For lettings properties: Once the property has been LET - we will erect a Let by board. If we are not managing the property then this will be removed shortly afterwards. If we are managing the property we would always advise to keep the board up as a contact for people to call if there are issues with the property. Our property management team have received numerous helpful calls from members of the public and have been able to deal with issues, when the tenants have been away. These issues no doubt would have been significantly worse if the public did not know how to contact us.

NO BOARDS

In certain areas councils have different rules regarding the erection of estate agents boards. Eg None at all in certain areas / black and white only boards in certain areas etc.. In certain Leasehold blocks - the lease forbids estate agents boards. Please therefore note that we cannot therefore always erect a board.

If of course as a landlord or a vendor you do not wish to have a board you of course do not have to have one.

BOARD REPLACEMENTS

We understand that boards may be knocked down, fall down and we know that our boards are deliberately removed by rival estate agents. We will of course reerect / replace the board for you on a reasonable number of occasions, providing we are legally allowed to erect a board.

(We offer a £500 reward to anyone who provides us with evidence that leads to the successful prosecution of an estate agent unlawfully removing one of our boards).
