London's property market is local by nature. A buyer registered in our Clapham office may be the perfect match for a property being sold through our Fulham team. Our offices work together sharing buyer registrations, coordinating viewings, and pooling insight so that your property benefits from the full weight of the Chestertons’ network, not just one branch.
We operate across all price points and property types: flats, houses, new-build, period conversion, ex-local authority, and everything in between. Whatever you're selling, we have buyers looking.
Accurate valuations that protect your position.
Pricing a property correctly from the outset is one of the most important decisions you'll make. Overpricing can mean a stale listing and reduced leverage; underpricing leaves money on the table. Our valuers draw on live transaction data, local comparable evidence, and direct experience of buyer demand to give you an honest, well-evidenced appraisal, not a figure designed to win your instruction.
We visit your property, assess the market, and provide a recommended asking price and marketing strategy.
We arrange professional photography, floor plans, and write a compelling property description ready for launch.
Your property goes live across all major portals and our own site, and is shared with matched buyers from our database.
We manage all enquiries, arrange and accompany viewings, and provide you with regular feedback.
When offers come in, we negotiate hard on your behalf to secure the best price and terms.
We manage the chain from offer to completion, liaising with solicitors and keeping the sale on track.
Every property and every market is different. London's sales market can move quickly in high-demand areas, or take longer where supply outpaces buyer interest. Your agent will give you a realistic expectation based on current local conditions.
We strongly recommend accompanied viewings carried out by your Chestertons agent. Buyers tend to speak more freely, ask more questions, and spend longer in a property when the owner isn't present — all of which improves the chance of a successful sale.
Our fees are agreed upfront and set out clearly in your instruction. We'll talk you through all costs — including any referral fees — before you commit to anything.
Yes, and this is very common. We can handle both sides of your move, helping to coordinate timings between your sale and your onward purchase wherever possible.
Tenanted properties can still be sold, either as an investment (to a landlord buyer) or with vacant possession once the tenancy ends. We'll advise on the best approach for your situation.
