Frequently Asked Questions

Below are the questions we are asked most often. They also give a good outline of the service that we offer. If you still have a question we would be very happy to hear from you. You can contact us here.

Do you charge commission on the sale?

No, we do not charge commission. Instead, we charge a very low, one-off listing fee. You can pay to list for three, six, or twelve months, with the listing fee working out at as little as 30 cents per day. There are no hidden costs. Compared to an estate agent, we can therefore save you tens of thousands of euros. This can either be a saving for you or used to reduce the price of your property, giving you a much better chance of selling.

What are your fees?

Our fees for advertising a property are displayed on our overseas property advertising page.

Where will you advertise my property?

Your property will be advertised on MagnoliaProperty.com as well as some of the biggest property portals in Europe including Zoopla.co.uk and Primelocation.com.

What information do I need to provide to advertise my property?

You will need to provide us with photos of your property and a written description. You will also be able to complete a list of property features, room sizes and information about your property's location.

How do I create my advert and provide photos?

All of the information can be uploaded through our website, we have a very easy-to-use, one-page advert form.

How do I get started?

You start creating your property advert by clicking here. Once you are happy with how it looks, you can activate it and pay.

How many photos can I upload?

There is no limit to the number of photos you can upload. We will use all of your photos for your adverts on MagnoliaProperty.com, Primelocation.com and Zoopla.co.uk. For your advert on the Dutch website Huisenaanbod.nl, there is a 10 photo limit. We will use your first 10 photos for this advert unless you instruct us otherwise.

How quickly will my advert appear across your website network?

Your property will appear on our website as soon as you have completed and activated your advert, and it will appear on the other websites within 24 hours.

Can I edit my advert after I have completed it?

Yes, you are able to edit your advert as often as you wish. Changes will take up to 24 hours to appear across our network of websites.

Do you value properties?

No, we do not value properties. If you are unsure of the value of your property, as a starting point, we would recommend asking a local agent or looking for similar properties online. Once you have set a price, we can advertise it for you and then give you detailed statistics on its performance. We can tell you if your property is over- or under-performing, allowing you to adjust the price accordingly.

Do you arrange and conduct viewings?

No, we do not arrange or conduct viewings.

I don't live at the property, how do I conduct viewings?

Many sellers ask neighbours, friends, or estate agents to show buyers around. If, after communicating with a buyer, you feel they are serious, it may be worth travelling out yourself, particularly if you can arrange several viewings at the same time.

Do you talk to buyers on my behalf?

No we do not. All enquiries that are generated from your property adverts are sent directly to you for you to follow up yourself.

Can I use your service and use a local estate agent?

Yes. You can use our service instead of, or in conjunction with, an estate agent. Most sellers use us as a way of avoiding estate agent fees and follow up enquiries themselves. However, some sellers who do not have time to conduct viewings, do not wish to be directly involved, or are frustrated by their agent’s efforts use our service to generate leads, which they then pass on to their agent to handle.

Do you vet the leads?

Yes, we do not send you leads from known scammers or spammers.

Do you offer discounts for multiple properties?

Yes, we can do, please contact us for more information.

What do I do when I accept an offer from a buyer?

Your solicitor will take over once you have found a buyer. We recommend that you find a local solicitor as early as possible so that there are no delays in moving towards completion once you have accepted an offer. You will probably have met a local solicitor when buying your property, but if not, there will usually be several in the local town.

What is your success rate?

Predicting the number of enquiries you will receive is difficult, as it depends on many factors, mainly the type of property you are selling, the location, and the price. We have found a buyer for a property in less than a week, and our record for a single property is 54 enquiries in the first month (View Testimonials). However, we have also advertised properties for six months with no response. We cannot guarantee enquiries, but we can guarantee that your property will be put in front of a huge number of potential buyers. If there is someone looking for a property like yours, there is a very good chance they will see it.
