The local market

Selling in Dover

Dover's housing ranges from Georgian and Victorian townhouses and terraces close to the seafront and the town centre, to family homes in River, Temple Ewell and Whitfield, and cliff-top and village homes towards St Margaret's at Cliffe and Kingsdown. High-speed services from Dover Priory and prices well below much of Kent bring buyers from London and further west, while nearby Deal has become one of the most fashionable towns on the coast.

That mix means homes in the same postcode can attract completely different buyers. A Victorian townhouse with sea views, a family home near good schools and a cottage in a downland village all need different pricing and marketing.

Why homes stick

Common problems in Dover

Every home is different, but these come up again and again. The consultation finds out which apply to yours.

01

Value buyers compare hard

When buyers are drawn by price, they compare many homes online. Clear, honest marketing and a realistic price stand out.

02

Townhouses with stairs and no parking

Tall period houses can put off some buyers. We help you market them to the people who will love them.

03

Competing with Deal

Buyers often look at Deal and Dover together. Showing what your home offers that Deal doesn't, such as space or price per square foot, helps.
