Test Your Agent Before You Instruct Them 🔍

Selling soon? Here’s a quick test that could save you stress — and potentially add thousands to your sale 💰.

Calls going unanswered. Emails ignored. Weeks before viewings. Sound familiar?

Poor service doesn’t just waste time — it can cost you serious money. If buyers feel neglected, they move on. Before you instruct an agent, mystery shop them: enquire on one of their listings and see how they respond. Do they reply quickly? Do they offer advice? Or do they keep you waiting?

At Keystone, every enquiry matters — because buyers who feel cared for are more likely to view, offer, and even pay a premium. 🏡✨

With more homes on the market and buyers becoming increasingly savvy, sellers need to be sharper than ever with their pricing strategy.

Buying your first home is exciting — but it can also feel daunting, especially in a fast-moving market like Flintshire. From average prices to mortgage rates and practical tips, here’s what first-time buyers need to know in 2025.

One of the first questions sellers ask is: “How long will it take to sell my home?” The truth is, timescales vary — but in Flintshire’s market, smart pricing and the right agent can make all the difference between months of waiting and a fast, stress-free move.

On the surface, a low-fee estate agent might sound like a bargain. But in reality, the cheapest option often comes at the highest cost. From rushed service to hidden priorities, here’s why choosing on fee alone could leave you with more stress — and thousands less in your pocket. 🏡
