Estate Agents Wanted To Join Trial To Speed Up Property Transactions By Getting Buyers To Pay For Searches Upfront

Upfront Searches Speed up the sale by getting the buyer to purchase searches upfront!

In a recent trial 200 buyers were asked to pay for their searches at the point of sale. Those who did not pay took on average 120+ days to completion, with a fall through rate of 43%. 


Those who did pay took 79 days to completion on average and had a ZERO fall through rate. These figure are startling and we are looking to repeat the trial with a wider group of estate agents. This simple step can have a huge impact on all parties involved.


If you would like to join the trial contact Tim Main through the PIP Home website

This makes total sense. I think we need as much as possible to be provided up front. All fixtures and fittings and the like should all be in place before a property is even marketed. It is insanity that it isn't. This would speed up things for the solicitors too.
