Selling jointly, and keeping it practical
Selling a property with a co-owner you are separating from can be managed in a genuinely practical, straightforward way, without needing every decision to be a difficult conversation.
Agree how you want to receive updates
Some people prefer joint updates, others prefer separate communication, or occasionally through solicitors. There is no wrong answer, and we are happy to adapt to whatever genuinely works for both of you.
Base decisions on evidence, not disagreement
Pricing, marketing and offers all go more smoothly when they are grounded in clear, factual evidence, comparable sales, genuine buyer feedback, rather than differing opinions. We are happy to present the evidence clearly to help decisions feel straightforward rather than contested.
Viewings can be arranged around both of you
If it works better for one or both of you not to be present during viewings, that is entirely manageable, and we can arrange access accordingly.
A single point of contact can simplify things
If it would help to have one of you as the main point of contact for day-to-day updates, with the other kept informed on major decisions, that is a perfectly reasonable way to manage things, and we are happy to work that way.
Agree the key decisions in writing
Having the asking price, and any significant decisions along the way, confirmed in writing between you both, even briefly by email, helps avoid confusion or disagreement later about what was actually agreed.
We stay neutral and practical throughout
Our role is to sell the property well and keep the process moving, not to take sides in anything else going on. We will always be straightforward and even-handed with both of you.
If it would help to talk any of this through, your local associate is happy to listen, at whatever pace and in whatever way suits you.
