What is sales progression?

Sales progression is the vital behind-the-scenes work that keeps your property sale moving. It involves coordinating all parties, resolving issues and ensuring that your sale doesn’t stall.

Here’s why having a dedicated sales progression process is essential:

1. Keeping everyone on track
   There are lots of people involved in a property sale—solicitors, estate agents, surveyors, mortgage brokers, buyers and sellers. Sales progression ensures that everyone knows their role and completes their tasks on time, keeping your sale to schedule.

2. Reducing the risk of fall-throughs
   One of the biggest reasons that sales fall through is lack of communication or slow responses. By actively managing the process, we can spot potential issues early—such as missing paperwork or survey concerns—and resolve them before they become deal-breakers.

3. Speeding up the sale
   Without someone chasing things up, property sales can take much longer than necessary. We stay in touch with solicitors, monitor deadlines and keep the momentum going to help you reach completion as quickly and smoothly as possible.

4. Improving communication
   Buying or selling a home can be stressful—especially when you’re left wondering what’s going on. Our dedicated sales progression service means you’re never left in the dark. We keep you updated regularly, answer your questions and give you reassurance when you need it most.

5. Managing the chain
   If you’re in a chain (where multiple sales and purchases are linked), one delay can affect everyone. Our sales progression helps to manage the entire chain, coordinating timings and helping to resolve hold-ups in order to keep things moving for everyone involved.
