Ostrich is for homeowners considering selling in the next few years. To get the most value, we recommend that you list in the 12 months before you plan to sell.
By listing early, it gives you the chance to take things at your own pace. You have plenty of time to explore the interest in your home without any pressure. Most importantly, it gives you the time to wait for a buyer who truly appreciates your home and is willing to meet your terms.
Ostrich is perfect for you it...
- You’re not in a hurry to sell, but for the right offer, you’d consider it.
- You’re thinking of selling in the next year and want to find the perfect buyer.
- You’re ready to sell, but you’re not willing to compromise on the price.
Your home won’t appear on any of the property portals like Rightmove or Zoopla, so you never need to worry about any negative connotations of your listing going stale.
What if I need to sell quickly?
If you need to sell your home urgently, Ostrich isn't the best choice.
For example, if you’ve had an offer accepted on another property and now need to find a buyer for your current home, the open market would be a better solution. This is particularly true if you are prepared to compromise on price for a fast sale.
No long term commitments or tie-ins
If you’re still unsure, one of the best things about Ostrich is the flexibility. Unlike traditional estate agents, we don’t tie you into any lengthy contracts. You can list your home with us and, if you change your mind or decide to sell elsewhere, you can leave at any time.
