Why Don't Estate Agents Conduct Viewings on Weekends?

Why Don’t Estate Agents Conduct Viewings on Weekends? 

Looking for a new place to live is tricky business. Whether renting or buying, your new place has to be perfect for you. Finding somewhere that fits into your lifestyle and who you are requires seeing it in person. So why is it that there are virtually no house viewings on weekends? Most of us work during the week, making it all the more difficult to go to most property viewings on weekends?

The simple answer is that most estate agents work a 9 to 5 like everyone else. So, working on the weekends too would really impact most estate agents' work-life balance. So, for us to view properties we would have to book time off - which often needs to be planned in advance (whilst property listings come and go pretty quickly in London). You can see the problem here right? 

We at Evernest properties work around you - which is why we are available to conduct viewings 7 days a week! What’s more, we’ve put together a few top tips when it comes to searching for the right property for you...

How to Get the Most Out of Your House Viewings

So how long do house viewings take? Typically, a property viewing will only take around 20-30 minutes (although this is entirely dependent on the size of the property). When it comes to buying and renting in the big city things move very quickly. Which is why it's important to make the most out of property viewings, so you can make the right decision fast. Always be clear with your estate agent about what your wants and needs are, so they can show you only the most relevant properties to you. Be sure to check reviews and ask lots of questions so you can gauge as much as possible from the small amount of time you have.

How to Choose the Right Estate Agent for You

Finding the right estate agent is crucial when looking for a property. Can house viewings take place when you need them to? Do the estate agents do viewings on Saturdays and Sundays? How responsive are they? Maybe you are more interested in virtual house viewings… There are a whole host of factors that go into deciding who is right for you. Be sure to do your own research beforehand, ask around and always check that they can accommodate your work schedule!
