About Jukes Estate Agents, Harlow

ABOUT US...
About us

A chance meeting some time ago between Lee Venables & Geoff Flewers saw their conversation turn to estate

agents and how bad an experience they had both had when selling their own properties.

Wind forward 18 months and they were both running Town and Country Herts & Essex Estate Agents. They

became more convinced than ever that the dubious, archaic & darn right bad practices of far too many estate

agents were simply not going to stop. These cause major headaches & heartbreaks for vendors & sellers alike.

For example:

51.8% of all UK home sellers fail to sell within 10 months [source: Jefferies International Investment Bank]

40% of all Harlow sales collapse before exchange of contracts [source: Rightmove]

£2,899 is the average amount a home mover will lose though having a transaction collapse [source: Which?

Mortgage Advisors]

35% of all UK homes currently for sale are marked 'price reduced' [source: Zoopla]

35-40% of all sales are successful only after a change of estate agent [source: Rightmove]

Enough was enough for Lee & Geoff and in July 2023 they formed their own company and JUKES ESTATE AGENTS was

born. Their mantra "Changing the way Estate Agents work!" is exactly what they have been doing & will continue to do!

Based in Harlow but with satellite offices in the surrounding areas JUKES ESTATE AGENTS continue to be innovative and are essentially completely different & therefore unique in their approach to handling perhaps the most important thing you will ever do: Buy & Sell a property.

None of the 5 things above apply to JUKES ESTATE AGENTS. They have consistently

'topped' the charts by being the fastest selling local agent.

 

Their 'fall through' rate is less than 4% (the average is a staggering 40%). 

Over 95% of their properties sell for asking price or above. This is achieved by ACCURATE VALUATIONS, SUPERB

MARKETING & AN AFTER SALE SERVICE THAT IS SECOND TO NONE!

NO AGENCY FEES

Yes you read that correctly!

WE SELL YOUR PROPERTY

FOR THE FULL MARKET VALUE (often even more)

WITH NO AGENCY FEES

NO CATCH

NO GIMMICKS

JUST AN INNOVATIVE & NEW WAY OF SELLING PROPERTY!

JUKES ESTATE AGENTS have been using this innovative method of selling properties for a while now, and around 95% of our properties are sold this way. It works extremely well for both sellers & buyers alike. It qualifies that both are serious and ready to proceed, and it virtually negates the high fall through rates that far too many property sales are experiencing now, which is around 40% (data supplied by

Rightmove), and we can all agree that this is far too high.

There are various reasons that these sales fall through, however, by far the two biggest reasons are:

1) Buyers (and some sellers) change their minds.

2) Estate Agents fail to carry out the correct due diligence.

Doing things this new way cuts that all out!

Once a sale price has been agreed, we collect a reservation fee from the buyer (Usually 1% + VAT). This is non 3 refundable unless:

A) A survey highlights problems and a new price cannot be agreed.

B) If the buyer's mortgage is rejected & they cannot get one elsewhere.

In these two cases the fee would be returned. However, if the buyer simply changes their mind, they do not get their reservation fee back. Likewise, if the vendor pulls out, they have to pay the fee back to the buyer. Therefore, our sales rarely, if ever fall through.

Selling property this way brings peace of mind that both seller and buyer are committed and will not pull out of the purchase. EXAMPLE: A property is on the market for a guide price of £350,000 - £360,000. The buyer offers £355,000 plus the reservation fee. The vendor accepts the offer, and the buyer pays us a reservation fee of £3,550 which becomes our commission. On completion of said sale the vendor will receive the full £355,000. Both buyer & seller now have 'skin in the game' and will suffer financial penalties if either party pulls out. Guess what? They rarely, if ever do! 

CONCLUSION: National 'fall through' rates of property sales currently stand at around 32%. Rightmove have just released figures that show in the Harlow area it is OVER 40%! We have been selling property this way for some time and whilst no method of selling is guaranteed, our 'fall through' rate is less than 4%! 

Also & just as important is the fact that latest figures also show that over 25% of sales are being subjected to 'Gazundering'. 

This is where just before exchange, the buyer drops their offer which leaves the seller in an awful predicament. Again, Conditional sales virtually negates 'Gazundering' as they would lose their reservation fee if the seller refused their lower offer and they pulled out of the sale! Guess what? They don't try offering a lower amount.
