How to Avoid Sleepless Nights When Selling Your Home

How to Avoid Sleepless Nights When Selling Your Home

We’ve all been there. Waking up in the middle of the night, worrying about something and not being able to get back to sleep.

This can be a common issue affecting people selling their homes.
Yes, it can be stressful. And it can cause sleepless nights. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
We’re not sleep experts, obviously. Otherwise, we’d wear white coats instead of suits and work from a laboratory, not an office. 
However, we are experts when it comes to selling homes.
And here are our three tips to aid more restful sleep when selling your home.
1) Start by choosing the best agent, not the cheapest. This will raise the chances of a successful sale, reduce the risks of things going wrong and allow you to relax knowing things are being taken care of properly and professionally.

2) Following hot on the heels in the Good Sleep Stakes is instructing a recommended solicitor. They can be the difference between insomnia-inducing delays and things getting done on time to allow you a more silent night.

3) If you do have worries or concerns (it’s only natural), ask yourself this question: Do I have any control over this part of the sale? In some areas, you do, for example, selecting an agent, accepting an offer and picking a solicitor. But in other parts of the process, you will have little / no control, such as property chains etc. So, it’s important to remember what you can and can’t control, AND here’s where a good estate agent is worth their weight in warm, snuggly duvets. A good agent will take the weight off your shoulders and work behind the scenes to make things happen so you can rest easier.

If you’ve ever considered selling your Wembley home, you may have felt the temptation to list it at a higher price, hoping for a bigger payday. After all, who wouldn’t want to maximise the return on their largest tax-free investment?

After months of fevered speculation, Chancellor Rachel Reeves will unveil her autumn Budget next week (Wednesday 30 October). As the announcement could have important implications for landlords, let’s consider what might be included in it.

In an age of sensational headlines, the UK property market—particularly in Wembley—often finds itself misinterpreted. While we cannot ignore the challenges of higher mortgage rates and shifting buyer preferences, it is vital to appreciate the broader context to understand what's happening in the Wembley property landscape.

Are you a Wembley homeowner or landlord? Are you thinking of selling your home or property in early 2025? Then, in this article, let me show you how long it will take, on average, to find a buyer for your Wembley home and how long solicitors will take to get you moved.
