How long does it take to sell a house in Kentish Town?

The Land Registry does not record time on market, so treat any precise figure with caution. 236 sales were registered in Kentish Town 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 Kentish Town?

London agents typically charge between 1% and 2% plus VAT on a sole agency basis. On the Kentish Town median of £650,000, that is roughly £6,500 to £13,000 plus VAT. Multi-agency fees are higher; ask what is included before comparing.

Do I need a valuation before selling?

Yes. In Kentish Town the middle half of registered sales spans £475,000 to £1.05m, 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 Kentish Town ranging from £332,000 to £2.30m across most sales, the error can easily run to tens of thousands of pounds. Use one as a starting point, not a price.
