Why the Right Estate Agent Makes All the Difference in Property Transactions
When it comes to buying or selling property, selecting the right estate agent can be the key to a smooth, successful transaction.

At SOLM Property, we pride ourselves on offering bespoke estate agency services tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients in Chester, North Wales, and the North West.
In this blog, we’ll explore why the right estate agent can make all the difference, highlighting how their expertise, market knowledge, and commitment to providing exceptional service can ensure that your property journey is as seamless as possible.
1. Expert Knowledge of the Local Market
An estate agent with extensive knowledge of the local market is invaluable when buying or selling property. At SOLM Property, we have an in-depth understanding of the Chester property market as well as areas across North Wales and the North West. We can offer advice on the best locations to buy, whether you’re looking for a family home, a profitable investment property, or a holiday let.
A local agent knows the nuances of the area, from school catchment zones to the proximity of transport links and upcoming developments. This expertise means that we can provide you with accurate property valuations, set competitive asking prices, and guide you to the right property or buyer based on your needs.
2. Tailored Marketing Strategies
In today’s competitive property market, standard marketing techniques often aren’t enough. The right estate agent knows how to effectively market your property to the right audience. At SOLM Property, we create bespoke marketing strategies for each of our listings, ensuring that your property stands out and reaches serious buyers.
From professional photography and virtual tours to social media campaigns and targeted email marketing, we use a range of tools to ensure maximum exposure for your property. We understand that every property is unique, and we tailor our approach to showcase its strengths, whether it’s a luxury home or a renovation opportunity.
3. Strong Negotiation Skills
Negotiation is one of the most critical aspects of any property transaction. A skilled estate agent will help you get the best price, whether you're buying or selling. At SOLM Property, we have years of experience negotiating deals on behalf of our clients, ensuring that your best interests are always at the forefront of the conversation.
For sellers, a good agent will know when to push for a higher offer or when to make concessions. For buyers, they’ll help ensure you don’t overpay, providing valuable insights into the market to ensure that you’re making a sound investment. Our negotiation expertise helps both buyers and sellers achieve their goals with confidence.
