Money and stress are biggest concerns of people selling their home

Money, stress and time constraints are still the biggest fears for UK home owners when selling their home, new research has found. Despite home owners currently enjoying a very buoyant UK property market, securing the right price still tops the list of fear factors, according to a survey from online estate agent eMoov. Some 55% of those asked said not getting the price they wanted or needed was their primary fear when selling, with the stress of the selling process the second biggest fear factor for 46% of home owners. Time constraints completed the top three fear factors, with 43% of home owners afraid they wouldn’t be able to sell their home in the time they needed to. The survey also shows that 36% fear paying too much in estate agent fees, 22% finding a new property to live in upon selling, 14% dealing with the buyer, 12% picking the wrong estate agent in the first place, 10% getting a mortgage for their next home and 4% that their new property might drop in value in the future. ‘Price is always going to be the primary concern home owners and it is only natural that securing the best price will weigh heavy on a seller’s mind,’ said the firm’s founder and chief executive Russell Quirk. ‘Generally speaking, our home is the most expensive asset we are ever likely to own and for the majority of us, our home is our nest egg, setting us up for retirement when we do finally sell and downsize. So it’s understandable that it be the biggest fear during the selling process, as that couple of extra thousand gained or lost, can make a big difference in the grand scheme of things,’ he pointed out. ‘Our previous research found that selling your home is more stressful than your wedding day and so it doesn’t surprise me that this also ranks highly amongst UK sellers. When you add time constraints to an already laborious process, you can see why selling a home in the UK can seem a daunting task and evoke such feelings of fear,’ he explained. ‘I have to say I am a little surprised that paying too much in estate agent fees didn’t make the top three. High street estate agent fees have rocketed in line with house prices over the years despite no additional service being offered, some may argue the service has even declined, and so the dated commission fee structure is one of the biggest obstacles to moving home,’ he added.
