About Reading

Reading is a large town, it sits just outside Wokingham. It’s an increasingly popular place to live, sitting in Berkshire it has great transport links being close to the M4. If you own property in the area, then you probably know all of this. What you may be more interested in finding out when landing on this page, is about the Reading property market.

Being just outside London, as you may expect, Reading has relatively high house prices when compared to the rest of the UK. The average house price in 2020 according to Rightmove sat at £390,080 in the area. The type of house that sold the most in the area was semi-detached which averaged £401,846.

In recent years there’s been great growth on the sold prices, with 2020 9% up on the previous year and 8% up on 2018s peak. This means, if you have held your property for a good few years, it will likely be worth more now than when you bought it – condition dependant, of course.

Reading's property market

You’ve likely landed here because you’re looking for a quick sale of your Reading property. Before jumping into your options, let’s set some expectations as to how long you might expect your property to take before selling.

Looking at historic stats for the area provided by Home.co.uk , in Sep 2021 the average time a property spent on the market was 168 days. If you have a semi-detached however, they move quickly at just 75 days, but if you have a flat for instance it can take up to 208 days.

These times don’t include the extra time between the sold status and actually completing, which is dependant on how quickly your buyer is able to move.

Your selling options in Reading

Let’s have a dig into what your main options are if you’ve chosen to put your Reading property up for sale. There are a few typical options that people choose when looking to move, each option lends itself to a different circumstance. Here’s a breakdown of them and which might work best for you personally:

Online property portals

This is the most common way people sell their properties, and you may also know it as estate agents.

They essentially list your property on portals like Rightmove, Zoopla & OnTheMarket in attempt to attract viewings and offers from the general public.

You’re at the mercy of the public at to how long it may take to sell your property, and afterwards you will be charged an estate agent fee which is usually a percent of the sale or a fixed fee.

This method will likely achieve you the closest figure to market value out of all of them, but there’s no guarantee on when you might sell – so it’s not particularly suitable if you want to sell quickly or by a set date.

Auctions

Likely the second most commonly considered option is to try and sell your house at a local or national auction.

This can be great if you’re property meets certain criteria, which the auctioneer will be able to help you with.

Auctions typically attract buyers who are interested in properties they can refurbish and flip for profit, or those that may be suitable to rent out at a decent yield.

A common misconception is that auctions are quick, that’s kind of true on the actual day, but there’s a lot that goes into getting the property to that stage, and it takes roughly 6-10 weeks to do so.

There’s no guarantee on the day of auction that the property will sell.

Sell house fast companies

Another option that not many consider is a service such as ours, a cash house buyer who will buy your home in as little as 7 days.

We’re open and honest though, before you get started, we can’t offer you full market value – so if you require the maximum amount for your property, we’re likely not a suitable option.

That being said, if you need to sell quickly, by a certain date, without any fees then it can offer a great alternative to the traditional.

We take all the stress and hassle out of a typical sale, making the whole process as easy as it possibly can be.
