Thinking of Selling

Let’s imagine that you have just decided to sell your property which we know can be an emotional, stressful, and overwhelming process for some, especially if it is your principal place of residence ‘home’. You must factor in many different elements, such as:

1.      What sale price will you achieve for the property?

2.      How must you prepare the property for sale to achieve the best possible price?

3.      Will you have the time to find the right property once you sell?

In contrast to selling your ‘home’, selling an investment property is generally less emotional. However, whether you are selling an investment property or your ‘home’, we understand the sales journey and that there can be many reasons for wanting to sell.

One of the most significant stresses of selling a property is getting the sale price right. To determine the right sale price, there are many factors that must be taken into consideration. An experienced and professional agent will be able to guide you through, step-by-step, to ensure that you maximise your achievable sale price. A professional agent will also take into consideration your circumstances, which are often tailor-designed to each property sale.

Determining the sale price of a property requires experience in market research and, more importantly, factoring in the property's features, upgrades, location, and other unique qualities, which online estimates can often get wrong. It is for this reason that it is important to speak with a professional agent so they can discuss and present the different options with selling the property that will align with your situation.

You can sell a property by auction (the highest bidder wins), a set price (private treaty), or an expression of interest (like a closed, silent auction).

The type of property you wish to sell will not only impact the sale price, but more importantly, it will determine how you should prepare the property for sale and how you should sell and market the property.
