    Now is a great time to sell!
    • paragraph

      Sell first or find first? Chicken or egg? People investigate the market to discover what is available and often fall in love with their "ideal " property. The Egg scenario is that vendors then feel under pressure to secure their dream home. This can result in as sale price up to 10% lower than would be achieved in more controlled circumstances. Why lose money unnecessarily?

      Sell with strength and buy with negotiating power! Market your home with us BEFORE you find your new home and we guarantee we will not allow you to feel under pressure to move until you find the right property. Achieve the maximum selling price and the most proceedable buyer with time, and Sterling, on your side. This is the chicken scenario so our answer to the question is Chicken before egg.

      Benjamin Bird - COMPANY OWNER
      Having worked for a corporate estate agency in the early part of his career Ben soon became disenchanted with the lack of flexibility, low investment in marketing, and general lack of service - all of which prohibited an estate agent generating the best price of his clients. In 2001 Ben grasped the nettle and opened Sterling Estate Agents which delivers our customers the very best marketing available, the best service and an honest approach all of which results in the optimum price being achieved from the best quality buyers. 

       Since 2001 Sterling have now grown to be the only estate agent with 4 prominent high street offices in Dacorum, supported by strong teams of experienced estate agents from each office 

      Ben comments:

      'When we opened Sterling Estate Agents we always had a vision of delivering the best of everything. I am lucky that having such experienced teams allows me to be a very 'hands on' business owner, ensuring I can still do the job I love - being an estate agent. This means I am still have a very proactive and effective input on the day to day running in all the offices including valuations, viewings and overseeing all offers which come in on our properties.'

      'It is so lovely to be working in a job where you are making a real difference to client's lives. The job of initially registering a buyer then seeing them through to keys being handed over on completion really does make you feel like you are making a tangible difference to someone's lives. With so many clients looking to move into Berkhamsted from out of the area, my local knowledge really helps clients settle into the area and I love working with such a proactive and experienced team at Sterling.'

        Much better than some of the other agencies

        Postcode: HP4

        Meka was amazing in helping us to buy our new house. We had been trying for over 2 years and were about to give up but Meka was very positive and Sterling's approach was so much better than some of the agencies we have dealt with in the past. A huge thank you to her for helping us to secure a property that we really love!

        had no problems with the fee - they earned it!
        By: 'Tinkerbell' Dec 10,2015
        Services: Sales (as a Vendor)
        Would you recommend?: Yes 
        Postcode: HP4

        Sterling were instrumental in the sale of our property having had a bad experience previously. We sold with the Berko office having had a previously bad experience with another high street agent. While they were not cheap they proved why and we ended up with a price far higher than our expectations so had no problems with the fee - they earned it!
