THINKING OF SELLING? - Maree_Gray

I'm available to give you an indication of your property's market value in 'today's market'. As the market is constantly changing we are able to provide you with recent sales for similar properties in your location.

If you would like an indication of the value of your property, simply fill out the form below and we'll be in touch within due course to discuss your real estate plans. Should you require an appraisal on a tenanted property we can discuss this too so as not to disrupt your tenants.

What you can expect

After requesting an appraisal, I will complete market research on your behalf so that we can better establish the market value of your property and recommend a marketing programme which will achieve the best results.

During the appraisal, we will first inspect your property then discuss your selling needs.

Afterwards we will discuss the following points:

Positioning your property in the market
Choosing the right sale method for you
Creating a marketing plan specific to your needs

It is advised that all decision makers be in attendance so that all questions can be answered at this time.

There is so much to consider when selling your home.

Think ‘Show Home’

As most people look at pictures on the internet before attending any Open Homes, your pictures must intrigue them. If they look dark and dingy you will intrigue them into thinking ‘bargain’. If they look as good as a show home you will be rewarded with more Open Home attendees and more competitive buyers when it comes time to negotiate.

De-Clutter and De-Personalise

Removing clutter helps areas to appear more spacious and allows purchasers to visualise their belongings in your home. Clear everything off kitchen benches. Think of this process as a head start on the packing you will eventually need to do anyway. Organise cupboards and wardrobes, this says you probably take good care of the rest of the house as well. Good idea too to remove personal photos so that prospective buyers can allow to see their own family living in the home.

Rent a Storage Unit

Almost every home shows better with less furniture. Remove pieces of furniture that block paths and walkways and put them in storage. Leave just enough furniture in each room to showcase the room’s purpose and plenty of room to move around. You don’t want buyers scratching their heads and saying, “What is this room used for?”

Make Minor Repairs

Replace cracked floor or counter tiles.
Repair holes in walls. Fix leaky taps.
Fix doors that don’t close properly and kitchen drawers that jam.
Consider painting your walls neutral colours, especially if you have grown accustomed to colourful walls.
Replace burned-out light bulbs.
Replace any worn bedspreads.

Make the House Sparkle!
