London Estate Agents on Yell & Right Move

Following the annual lull in the housing market around Christmas and its extension throughout an icy February when no-one wanted to venture out, it appears that Spring has finally arrived for the house hunter. Right Move and RICS report a glut of houses coming onto the market in March; The beginning of this month has seen the highest rise in new properties coming on to the market and there has been a resultant levelling off in house prices.

A glut of houses means it is a buyer's market and the seller needs to ensure that their estate agent has all marketing tools at hand and in action, in order that their property is top of the viewing pile.

While still using the traditional press to advertise property for sale, all other areas of marketing are used. The Paramount Properties website has a database of property for sale in North West London which are constantly reviewed and updated. Paramount advertise your property on other property databases such as UK Classifieds, Gumtree and Vivastreet.

Paramount will not miss an opportunity to reach potential buyers and have signed up to place featured properties on the Rightmove website.
