Selling Your Home in Stannington? Here’s How to Choose the Right Agent

Selling your home in Stannington (S6) can be a rewarding experience, but choosing the right agent is key to achieving the best price, a quick sale, and a stress-free process. At Hunters Hillsborough, we specialise in this area and understand the local market inside out.

Here’s what to consider when picking your agent.


1️⃣ Local Knowledge Matters

An agent who truly knows Stannington understands:

  • Street-level trends

  • Buyer preferences

  • Sold boards in the area

  • Micro-market values

Stannington market stats (Nov 2025 – last 12 months):

  • Average sales price: £267,243

  • Total value of sales: £61,864,715

  • Flats: 8.7% of sales, average price £141,334

  • Houses: Sold on average for £283,868

Agents who understand these nuances can price your home accurately and target the right buyers.


2️⃣ Sold Boards – A Sign of Active Local Presence

Seeing “Sold” boards around Stannington isn’t just a visual cue — it shows that the agent is active and trusted in the area.

  • Buyers often notice sold boards and this builds confidence in the market

  • Active agents have first-hand insight on what properties are selling for locally

  • Ask your agent how many properties they’ve sold in Stannington in the past year


3️⃣ Five-Star Google Reviews

High Google reviews are more than just ratings; they reflect the agent’s ability to:

  • Communicate effectively

  • Conduct accompanied viewings

  • Negotiate successfully

Reading reviews from local sellers helps you gauge if the agent can manage a sale in Stannington smoothly.


4️⃣ Accompanied Viewings

Accompanied viewings allow the agent to:

  • Highlight your home’s best features

  • Answer local questions about schools, amenities, and transport

  • Collect immediate buyer feedback

This personal touch can attract serious buyers more quickly than unsupervised viewings.


5️⃣ Pricing & Presentation

Maximise your home’s value by:

  • Setting a realistic asking price using recent sales as a guide

  • Ensuring professional presentation with high-quality photos, staging, and kerb appeal
