Our Selling Process
Valuing your home
We help people move every day. The first step is obtaining an accurate valuation with one of our most senior and experienced people who will visit your home and listen to your moving goals and desires. We can help you understand the local market and give advice and guidance on the best route to achieving a premium price for your home.
Get prepared
Think like a buyer. Now’s the time to take care of the obvious items, declutter and freshen up your home in preparation for viewings. There’s also some paperwork to find and complete at this stage, we’ll give you a check list of all the things you need to attend to, such as ID checks.
Pre-market
Our team will visit in person to understand all their is to know about your home and why you love it so much. This ensures that we’re all on the same page with a shared interest and that our communication to buyers is full of first hand knowledge and experience of your home.
Marketing your home
Every single seller and every single home is different and by listening to your needs, we’ll take a bespoke, tailored approach to present your property to the market. Our in-house team of marketing specialists support each office to help present your property to the world in consummate style through the very best imagery, print and social media presence.
Joining the dots
Our business thrives on forging perfect connections, expertly pairing buyers and sellers. Think of us as your personal property matchmakers, we create an environment to attract not just any buyer, but the right buyer that not only loves your home, but aligns with your timescale and economic aspirations. It’s because of this, that our fallthrough rate is significantly lower than the national average.
Viewings and negotiations
To save you time and help you secure an offer, our local agents accompany buyers on viewings and give you prompt and detailed feedback afterwards. We’re here to help buyers see the value of your home. Only our most experienced people will negotiate offers on your behalf to get a premium price for your property.
Conveyancing
When you’ve accepted an offer, the conveyancing process begins. This is the legal process of transferring ownership of your property, managed by your solicitor. There will be paperwork to complete and answers to provide – return everything as quickly as possible to avoid delays.
Exchange and completion
Before you can exchange contracts we can help you agree a move-in date alongside the buyer and then assist with firming up the removal firm. Once done you’ll exchange contracts to legally bind the sale agreement. Before signing the contracts, ensure all necessary checks are completed and any concerns are resolved, to provide peace of mind for both parties.
Complete the transaction
On completion day, your conveyancer will transfer the remaining purchaser funds to you. It’s time to say goodbye to all the household memories and close the chapter on this journey as you embark on the next. It’s on this day you’ll need to drop the keys into us so that we can give them to your buyer.
Partner for life
Your journey has come to end, but we’re not going anywhere. We’d love to hear how you’re getting on in your new home and don’t forget you can rely on us to recommend the best local tradespeople, childcare and places to eat. Our proudest moment of all is when we’re recommended to friends or family and of course we’re here to help them too, for years to come.

“The team at Seymours in Ripley were excellent from the initial engagement to the completion of the sale of our property. Their ability to manage the sales and legal process in a structured manner gave us real confidence that the best was always being done. We have sold a number of properties in the past and without doubt Seymours are the best team we have experienced. We would not consider another agent if we had to do it all again. Thank you team!”

“Seymours Estate Agents have just helped me sell my flat in Dorking and i couldn’t recommend them enough. Everyone who works at Seymours have been professional, friendly, exceptionally helpful and without doubt made the whole process a great deal less daunting than I thought it would be. They have consistently exceeded what i would have expected with availability for advice, guidance and communication. Seymours as a team, made me feel like I was being taken care of the whole time. I would like to thank Emma, Penny, Rachel, Kate, and Robbie for all of their hard work, and definitely not forgetting David who has consistently been fantastic throughout the whole process. Thank you so very much Seymours!”

“The Team at Blackwater certainly went the extra mile to secure our sale within six days of marketing the house. They were always willing and helpful in assisting us in any way they could right through to exchange and completion. Would highly recommend.”

“Excellent service. It’s the professionalism, capability and trustworthy nature of the people at Seymours (Haslemere branch) that make it the best estate agent I have ever come across. Not ‘sales-y’ types, but a very high standard of service, from non-pushy honest nice people, to the ability to take extremely flattering photos of our house, and the effort, care and ‘nothing is too much of a big ask’ attitude, the team were excellent all round, miles ahead of local competitors we spoke with. “

“Selling my mother’s home that she loved and lived in until going into care was always going to be tricky. I decided that I needed the support of people I could trust and work with at the outset now it was time to sell and pay for her care. Simon completely understands the Guildford market and updated me continually .A buyer was found and the support team at Seymour’s did everything to make things happen. keeping me informed as the sale progressed. It’s been an easy pleasure to have Seymour’s handle the sale. One of my best decisions was to appoint them.”
