How to market a property: a coordinated seller guide

A current guide to pricing, preparation, media, distribution, viewings and negotiation.

Published 14 January 2022

Updated September 2026. Marketing choices should be matched to the home, buyer audience, budget and current market. No method guarantees price or sale speed.

Build one coordinated selling campaign

  1. Price from current comparable transactions, competing supply, condition and seller timeline.
  2. Prepare repairs, styling and access only where they improve buyer understanding.
  3. Create accurate photography, a long-form home tour and concise short-form content.
  4. Distribute through suitable portals and social channels with consistent facts.
  5. Plan viewings, feedback, follow-up and negotiation before launch.

Disclose material facts, protect occupants' privacy and keep all media accurate. Review enquiry quality and buyer objections, then adjust deliberately rather than making unsupported performance promises.
