No. There are no hidden fees unlike some other online estate agents. We do recommend purchasing ID checks as a minimum when agreeing terms - all fees are listed on our pricing page.

No. There is no contract or tie-in period.
Don't be nervous. But there are a few important considerations when selling your home:
1. Sell your home for the right price. Gather some property valuations from other estate agents and purchase one of our property valuation reports (trusted by 85% of the UK's largest mortgage lenders). Then use our house price calculator to calculate the value of your home.
2. When you accept an offer, we advise that you purchase an ID check (see our pricing page) to verify the other party. We also advise when selling that you use a regulated conveyancing solicitor.
If you follow these guidelines you will have nothing to worry about.
No. Rightmove is a property portal that lists homes being sold by estate agents all over the country. Rightmove is used by estate agents to find buyers for the homes that they are trying to sell.
No. We are trying to build a community where property owners do not need to rely on expensive estate agents and property portals.
If you're not comfortable with using computers it might be advisable to use a traditional estate agent instead. You'll pay much more but they will manage the whole process from end-to-end.
However if you are comfortable using a computer, Investate provides the perfect platform to sell or let your home and you will save hundreds, if not thousands of pounds.
