estateagencyfeesdirect.com Expands

estateagencyfeesdirect.com, a UK website that generates comparison quotes for property sellers, is now offering an expanded service that includes Below Market Value (BMV) offers.

estateagencyfeesdirect.com allows property sellers to compare estate agents through an online form and contact multiple local estate agents to request a quote for selling their property. The service is free to sellers, who can contact up to 10 agents at a time.

The expanded comparison service works by passing sellers’ property and contact details to a panel of “Quick Property Sale” companies. These companies then have the option to offer the seller their best BMV price.

Amanda Thorne from Business Development at estateagencyfeesdirect.com outlines the advantages of the service:

“In the current economic climate one of the many casualties is slow house sales and lenders not having the appetite to remortgage all properties. Many homeowners and property landlords are left searching for alternative ways to sell their homes and properties quickly.

There is no other online resource available for comparing these offers and many sellers often go with the quickest solution or the first company they approach; with this not always being the best offer they could receive.

Originally a few companies had the market cornered and would offer 70% BMV for a property. Using our unique and free service they could actually find a better offer of around 90% Below Market Value (BMV) if they are prepared to shop around.”

estateagencyfeesdirect.com had their test launch in April 2008, and recently announced a partnership with nethouseprices.com, who provide free and instant house price information for UK users.
