Strong communication is a landlord’s secret weapon. Clear, consistent contact helps prevent misunderstandings, builds trust, and turns small issues into easy fixes instead of major problems. Landlords who set expectations early and stay engaged enjoy smoother tenancies, fewer disputes, and longer-lasting, stress-free rental relationships.

Are you searching these phrases? “My home isn’t selling, and I don’t know why.” “I feel stuck in a sole agency agreement.” “How do I get things moving again with my property sale?” If yes, it means you’re in what we call the “agent gap”, when your agent’s actions no longer match your goals...

It’s been a few weeks (maybe longer), and the buzz has faded. Viewings are few and far between. Updates are sparse. And your agent’s enthusiasm? Nowhere to be seen.

If you’re Googling any of these right now: “Why am I getting viewings but no offers?” “What does buyer feedback really mean?” “Is my house overpriced or just badly marketed?” You’re not alone, and you’re right to ask. Because when buyers are walking in, nodding politely… and then vanishing or worse giving 'naff' offers, something’s misaligned.

No new viewings. No clear updates. Just silence. You’re still on the market, but it’s starting to feel like you’re in limbo.

You might be Googling things like: • “What should my estate agent be doing to sell my house?” • “House on Rightmove but no viewings” • “How do I change estate agents if I’m not happy?” And here’s what I’d say to your agent, the things I know sellers are thinking but don’t always say out loud.

Are You Googling Things Like: “Should I reduce my asking price?” “Why isn’t my house selling?” “How to sell my home faster without dropping the price?” If so, you’ll be one of many. But before you agree to a reduction, let’s look at what else might be holding things back.

You might be closer to the end… or further from freedom than you realised.

Are Your Viewings Lacking in Volume and Quality? What Should You Be Doing Differently?

The Bank of England has cut the base rate from 4.00% to 3.75% as inflation eases and economic growth slows. For homeowners and buyers, this could mean lower mortgage repayments, more affordable borrowing, and a shifting property market making now a key time to understand what this change means for you.

Let’s call it what it is: being on the market with no real progress is frustrating.
