Why use an Estate Agent in Gambia to buy your property
?
Most Gambian Estate Agencies are like a shop, and will
try to persuade the client to buy a property from their
books only. (in order to get the most commission). Although
they say the opposite, they are thinking of their interests,
not the clients. In my experience of working in estate
agencies here, I have seen this happens often.
An Estate Agency will look after its interest before
yours
Also, sometimes estate agencies are linked to the owners
of a particular property and may have special terms agreed
on certain deals with builders... or want to sell properties
that they own themselves!
Thus, the agency may try to push you in a direction you
would rather not take otherwise.
Since we are not committed to any estate agency, and
have no other interests related to your property purchase,
we can provide you with acurate, independent advice and
information, so you have a precise view of the Gambian
property market at any given moment. After we have shown
you the best properties in your chosen area or price bracket,
it is completely up to you to decide.
What can you expect from the the Gambia Holiday News
property team?
You can expect plain talk, honest, knowledgeable and,
above all, impartial advice on which property to buy in
the Gambia. You can expect us to provide you with the
best of both worlds: all that estate agencies have to
offer, but none of the pressures to buy one particular
property, or properties in any given area. If we don´t
find it, it just does not exist. And more:
After the thorough search based on you needs, we
guarantee to find you the property that best matches
what you are looking for.
Knowledgeable advice and recommendations on the best
areas to buy property in.
Sort out all the after sales paperwork for you.
We can answer all your questions about your ownership
and future use of your property before, during and
after the search
We can point you in the right direction, give you
concrete tips AND useful phone numbers you will need
(repairs, schooling for children, renting out issues,
etc...)
This is all you can expect from us. Nothing more. Nothing
less.

the Gambia, all you have to do is phone us. We´ll
