· It is important to take all offers made on your home seriously, even first offers. In today’s climate where everybody has access to technology, most buyers have been looking at every home on the market that meets their parameters for weeks or months. By the time they make an offer it’s usually a good one because they understand what they’re dealing with! · Seriously consider awarding a sole mandate to one agency! Many homeowners mistakenly believe the more agents they allow to market their home, the higher the chances are of a quick and profitable sale, but for the best price to be achieved it is crucial that buyers must compete for your property and not estate agents. A sole agent will often obtain a higher price as there is sufficient time to negotiate without being concerned about a competing agent’s offer. The race for a quick and low offer is immediately eliminated when you award a sole mandate. More energy, advertising expenditure and time is invested into the marketing of your property when awarding a sole mandate. Sellers can expect a professional marketing campaign where only pre-qualified buyers will be introduced to you and the duplication of buyers and double commission claims are also eliminated. More benefits include: more convenience as viewing times are set, greater security as only one agent has the keys to your property and consistent advertising! · Speak to an experienced estate agent before you undertake any serious renovations or upsizing to your home in order to ensure that you don’t over capitalise for the area that you live in. In many cases it is better to leave renovations to new owners in order for them to personalise it according to their own specific tastes. · Get a proper valuation done as the key is to price your property Don’t overprice your property! The only person who really decides what the property is worth in the end is the purchaser. Prospective purchasers today are very clued up regarding prices and they do comprehensive research, visit many show houses and have access to various websites. No purchaser will pay more for a property then what it is worth! · Do your best at show days! Declutter the home, mow the lawn, make sure mirrors and windows are sparkling clean and brew a fresh pot of coffee to add a homely and cosy vibe before potential buyers come to view the home!
