1. Open Communication: between you
and us
From the time you choose your agent to work for you on the
sale of your property he/she will keep you informed on:
- Preparing your property
- Results of advertising
- Buyer enquiry
- Inspections completed
- Buyer comments
- Changes in market trends
- Offers received
- Sale negotiations
- Legal process through to final settlement
You can be assured
that through the use of our customised 'SALES PROGRESS REPORT'
the progress in the sale of your property
will be kept constantly up to date.
2. Choosing: your agent
After deciding to sell, you will meet with an agent(s) to
discuss:
- The sale process
- Legal requirements
- Marketing programmes
- Agents services
- Presentation of your property
- Current market conditions
- Setting a reasonable price
Beware of agents offering reduced fees, high price
estimates and free advertising. They may not necessarily
get the best
results for you! You need to feel at ease with the agent
of your choice and confident in his/her knowledge
of the market
to achieve the best price for you. 3. Understanding: the market
Prices are determined by buyers and a property is only worth
what a buyer will pay. Buyers are aware of similar houses on
the market and pricing too high will generally result in few
inspections. Most property sellers would like to attract a
buyer within 4 - 8 weeks depending on their ultimate plans.
4. Marketing: your biggest asset
We'll tailor an individual marketing program to suit your
particular property. We guarantee professional marketing
of your property
from start to finish. We have extensive experience in successfully
marketing properties. Marketing a property can involve auctions, exclusive listings,
price range marketing, tenders, negotiated sales and referrals.
Essential sales tools that work alongside the marketing are
press advertising, effective window displays, property signage,
promotional photography and website design, just to name a
few areas.
We utilise the latest marketing technology by way of the online
property search engine available through the website.
5. Presentation: first impressions count
When preparing your property for presentation some important
areas to consider are:
- Minor repairs
- Painting
- Fixing the lawns and gardens
- Steam cleaning carpets
- Arrangement of furniture
- Times for an open house
First impressions are everything when buyers inspect
a property. If buyers are initially attracted to
a property and emotionally
respond as if they own it, then a sale is likely to result.
Your agent can advise you on how to best present your home
for sale to appeal to the widest range of potential buyers.
Take time in presenting your property for sale… you only
get one chance at a first impression.
6. The
market: getting the right price Your
agent will research the local market and compare your property
with others that are currently for sale, recently
sold and those which have been withdrawn from sale.
In providing
the detail of property prices and time on the market,
together with feedback from our buyer database, your
agent will be able to assist you in determining a reasonable
price in order to attract the greatest number of potential
buyers. 7. Ready to get listed?
