How long does it take to sell a house in Kennington?

The Land Registry does not record time on market, so treat any precise figure with caution. 186 sales were registered in Kennington in the latest twelve months of data, and in our experience a well-priced London home takes around ten to sixteen weeks from launch to completion, most of it conveyancing.

What are estate agent fees in Kennington?

London agents typically charge between 1% and 2% plus VAT on a sole agency basis. On the Kennington median of £580,000, that is roughly £5,800 to £11,600 plus VAT. Multi-agency fees are higher; ask what is included before comparing.

Do I need a valuation before selling?

Yes. In Kennington the middle half of registered sales spans £405,000 to £758,000, so an area median alone tells you little about your own home. A valuation sets the asking price, the strategy and the timing — and it is free.

How accurate are online valuations?

An online estimate works from averages and cannot see condition, light, lease length or outside space. With prices in Kennington ranging from £280,000 to £1.45m across most sales, the error can easily run to tens of thousands of pounds. Use one as a starting point, not a price.
