Seller's FAQs
How
do I value my property?
Do
a little research - look in the paper and see what prices others are charging.
Compare your property to those similar recently sold in your road or area: how
much did they go for, did they sell quickly or were they on the market a long
time? If your property is well decorated and in good condition add 5 % onto the
average price, if not take it away. Don't be tempted to price too high or you
simply won't get any viewings. Just remember - the value of your property is
simply the price a potential buyer or tenant is willing to pay. TIP - you could
also contact an estate agent who will give you their own market valuation - you
can then decide whether you try to sell it by both mediums.
Is
it safe?
When arranging a viewing always ask a few personal questions, to include their telephone
number, name and address and ask them to bring
some ID with them. WE do recommend that you have
a friend or relative with you during the
viewing.
If using our "For Sale" sign they do not contain any of your contact
information. Buyers will contact us directly and we then pass their details onto
you. It will then
be up to you to divulge further details.
What questions should I ask of
potential buyers?
Ask a few qualifying questions which will hopefully put off any time wasters,
for example:Do you have finance arranged?
Can I
still try and sell my property via an Estate Agent as well as using Tenerife
Properties Direct?
Yes, there is no reason why you can't use both unless you sign an exclusive
agreement. But just think how much you'll save if you manage to sell it
yourself!

What do I do
when I find a
buyer?
When you have agreed a price, pass on your details to your legal advisor who

What
does the tenerifepropertiesdirect.com

to display outside your home. The sign will have our website details on it so
the buyer has to reach you via ourselves at tenerifepropertiesdirect.com. This sign will be delivered by one of our representatives.

appointments to view?
Visitors to the site who have questions about your property or are interested in
viewing it will contact us by e-mail and we will then pass your details onto
them.
Do
I have to complete my details on-line?
This is definitely the best way, however, if you do not have your own
computer but would still like to advertise on-line, we can send you a registration form and
by post. Please return this to tenerifepropertiesdirect.com,
Av. Claudio Delgado Diaz 67, 38639 Las Chafiras, San Miguel de Abona together with your
photographs in a stamped, self-addressed envelope. We will
be happy to return the original photos by post but cannot guarantee their safe

postal service.
Can
I have more than 4 photos ?
Yes. You can start with 4 but can send us an additional 4 to be shown on
the website.
Will
my email address remain private after I place an advert with you?
Yes, your email address will remain private. We do not use customer
email addresses for any reason other than to communicate details
regarding payment and customer service. Also, we don't sell our
customers email addresses to direct marketers like many of our
competitors. From time to time we do email special service offers to our customers,
but the email will come directly from us.
If you believe you have received unsolicited email in response to your
ad, please report it immediately to info@tenerifepropertiesdirect.com.
Why
don't you charge commission?
