According to the number one property selling website Rightmove, it is the fastest growing estate agent in Somerset in terms of sales alone. HouseFox is positive this is primarily due to the impact of its fantastic, highly experienced team made up of people with vast local knowledge. An innovative approach that has truly paid dividends. HouseFox has always wanted presentation to be imperative, seeking to offer a better and more effective service than rival companies. That is why it offers professional photography without an extra charge. Managing Director Neil Urch had been selling homes across Somerset for over 30 years when he decided to create HouseFox. This time, he knew he wanted to do things a little differently. His intention for HouseFox was always to create a fairer way to sell homes, with an estate agents that concentrated more on being more customer-friendly, more open, and indeed more effective. HouseFox arrived on the scene to provide its customers with a full and first-class services, as intended. Rather than charging a percentage-of-value fee, like most High Street estate agents do, HouseFox charges one simple, transparent fee. This way everyone knows where they stand, and exactly what they’re getting for their money. It also won’t tie customers in to contracts for months on end, preventing them from seeking help elsewhere. Instead, it prefers to offer a service that is so spectacular customers will be happy to stay. With its local estate agent offices in Westonsuper-Mare, Portishead, and Burnham-on-Sea, it is conveniently placed to cover extensive property locations right across Somerset. Every one of its estate agents has lived and worked in Somerset for many years, so they know every village, street, and cul-de-sac in the area. This means HouseFox is well equipped to assist its clientele with their requirements, including the all-important asking price for homes in the current market. It is crucial to get this right, both so customers can get the most for their property, but also to ensure valuable time isn’t wasted starting out with an unrealistic price that needs to be reduced week after week when there’s no interest from buyers. Although HouseFox has noticed a slowing down of the market post the house price madness during the COVID-19 pandemic, properties are definitely still selling. The difference being that houses that were finding buyers within 5-12 days, now might take a more realistic 30-36 days to gain traction. Buyers are still keen, however, just perhaps a little more cautious. HouseFox’s dedicated staff continue to maintain a high-level service at all times, oiling the wheels by calling clients back as soon as possible, matching new instructions to hot buyers, and immediately progressing sales to the exclusive move managers as soon as a sale is agreed. HouseFox has ambitions to not only maintain its market share, and high service level, but to expand further within the Somerset region. As the recently announced winner of Best Residential Estate Agency 2023 – Somerset, in the UK Enterprise Awards, 2023 has clearly already started very well for HouseFox. As it progresses, it can only see the market continuing to grow stronger. All in all, terrific news for this outstanding estate agents of merit.
