Selling a home without an agency: first steps

How to prepare your listing, set a realistic price, and stay organised through offers and completion.

Selling directly can work well if you prepare documents early and communicate clearly with buyers.

Get your paperwork ready

Gather title/deed information, recent tax bills, energy certificate, and anything that proves community fees or major works. Serious buyers will ask sooner or later.

Photos and description

Use bright, honest photos and describe layout, floor, orientation, and recent improvements. Accuracy builds trust and saves time on mismatched viewings.

Pricing and negotiation

Compare similar homes nearby. If the market is thin, consider professional valuation input. Agree deposit rules, timeline, and what is included in writing before you rely on verbal promises.

Listing your property

A clear ad on a focused portal reaches the right audience. InmoPortal is built for readable listings and direct contact so private sellers and buyers can move forward with confidence.
