Your home is your castle

YOUR property is one of your biggest financial assets, so when it comes time to sell, it’s important to do everything you can to achieve a top price.

Deciding which agent is best to market your home is one of the first and most important steps in the selling process.

Talk with friends, neighbours and family members who have sold in the past or who are also looking to sell about their experiences.

To make the process both smooth and successful you need a great agent who knows the market and is well informed of your needs.

One who keeps sale prices up and stress levels down.

Choosing an agent can sometimes feel like a lottery so make sure you are well armed with as much information about your local agents as possible.

Finding a reputable, experienced local agent is critical.

They know the local market like the back of their hand, regularly speak to buyers and know what it takes to sell a property just like yours.

They know how to piece together the right strategy to sell your home and have relationships with active buyers looking for properties just like yours.

They will take charge of the selling process, saving you both time and stress.

They also know how to maximise key selling points of your home to find a point of difference in today’s competitive market.

Presentation is key. Many sellers overlook this important strategy and it can make a huge difference to your selling price.

Never underestimate the value of a great write-up for your listing, along with professional photos.

When looking at selling your property you also need to be aware of the potential costs involved. Some of the typical costs you need to be aware of include real estate agent commissions, marketing and advertising fees and discharge of mortgage (in many cases).

Other costs can include conveyancing fees, moving costs, capital gains tax (if you are selling an investment property) and stamp duty (if you are purchasing a new property).

Cosmetic renovations, cleaning and repairs when preparing your home for sale and home staging (if you choose to use a property stylist) can also add to your expenses.

With so much to consider before, during and after sale, your local agent should be warm, welcoming and above all else well informed of your needs and expectations.
