Selling your property: deconstructing preconceived ideas to make a success of your project

Putting a property up for sale is an important step, and one that is often emotionally and financially charged. However, when it comes to choosing the right strategy, many owners rely on preconceived ideas, conveyed by word of mouth or well-meaning advice from friends and family.
For example: "The more agencies you use, the more likely you are to sell quickly" or "An agency with a lot of properties is bound to perform better". These statements, although common, can actually slow down the sale or reduce the perceived value of your property.

In this article, we take a closer look at popular beliefs and the realities on the ground. The aim is to help you see things more clearly and adopt an effective sales approach that's tailored to your property, your project and the local market.

💡 Whether you're selling a chalet in Samoëns or a flat in the resort, this article will help you avoid the classic pitfalls and put all the chances on your side.

🤩 1. "The more mandates an agency has, the faster it will sell my property".

• • Reality: the dilution effect
    An agency with too many mandates risks dividing its attention: standardised photos, advertisements with little personalisation, minimal customer care.
    🌟 SEO tips / storytelling The emphasis is on clean visuals and an authentic, emotional description that speaks to visitors.

• • Consequences A property that is not showcased to its best advantage, an experience that is not very engaging for potential buyers... and therefore a longer sale.

🏩 2 "The more goods, the more buyers".

• • Reality: quality over quantity
    Buyers focus on the quality of the visuals, the reliability of the advert and the consistency of the price. A massive but poorly organised portfolio can put off serious profiles.
    🚀 SEO boost Work on ad titles and long descriptions with keywords (e.g. "Mont Blanc view", "school nearby") to improve your visibility and SEO relevance.

♻️ 3. "The simple mandate, because it multiplies chances".

• • Reality: the simple mandate causes confusion
    With duplicate advertisements, varying price ranges and unmotivated agents, dispersion is more of a hindrance than a help.
    🔄 Council A clear, confident strategy is more reassuring for the buyer.

❌ 4. "Online estimates are enough".

• • Received idea An online estimate can replace professional advice.

• • Reality These tools are useful for getting an initial idea. They provide a indicative price range based on available data (surface area, location, etc.).

🔭 But be careful Only an estimate made by a professional on site can truly reflect the value of your property. He or she will take account of criteria that are not visible online, such as the actual condition of the property, its exposure, the immediate surroundings, the services provided, local demand, etc.

• • Recommendation use the online estimate as starting pointThen validate your price with a visit from an estate agent.
