How we rank the best estate agents in Stansted Mountfitchet

Every estate agent in AgentSeeker's Stansted Mountfitchet ranking is scored out of 100 on four things we can actually observe, each worth up to 25 points. No agent can pay to move up the list, and we never adjust a score by hand.

  1. Reputation: the agent's Google rating, and how many people took the time to leave one. Volume matters as much as the average.
  2. Value: how competitive the fee is. Some agents set their own; where they haven't, AgentSeeker quotes the fee on your behalf and each card says which is which. Either way the percentage is inclusive of VAT, it is what you would pay, and it cannot rise at contract stage. In Stansted Mountfitchet fees start at 1.5%.
  3. Activity: how many homes they currently have on the market across Stansted Mountfitchet, taken from live listing data rather than anything an agent tells us about themselves.
  4. Standing: how they rank against the other agents actually working the same postcode districts.

Two figures are deliberately absent: achieved price against asking, and average time to sell. They are the two that matter most, and we are building them from HM Land Registry records rather than asking agents to report on themselves. Until that data is ready we leave them out, because a number we cannot stand behind is worse than no number at all.

Do I have to pay estate agent fees if I sell privately in Stansted Mountfitchet?

If you sell your Stansted Mountfitchet home entirely privately with no agent involved, there's no agent fee to pay. However, most Stansted Mountfitchet agents operate on a 'sole agency' or 'multi-agency' contract, and if a buyer originally introduced by the agent completes, the fee is still due even if you handle the final negotiation yourself. Always check the contract before signing. Compare committed-fee Stansted Mountfitchet agents on AgentSeeker. committed-fee Stansted Mountfitchet agents.

Should I use an online or high-street estate agent in Stansted Mountfitchet?
