Shifting with the every Real Estate Market for a Successful Sale!

When it comes to selling your property, the key is to set your home up for a successful and smooth closing. Yes the market is still a sellers market (only just though)! So in a shifting market, there are protocols that still need to be adhered to for a successful sale.

Preparing your Home ready to List


First things first, making sure that your home maintenance is all up to date, i.e. aircon fully serviced, pool equipment functioning and maintained, carpets cleaned, deep cleaning, interior paintwork if needed, exterior cracks filled and sealed and exterior paint if need. Then presenting your property the best way possible, which isn’t typically much of a problem because most properties in our area are short term rental homes and tend to be well kept and presented really well. However, when it comes to selling, all the maintenance jobs that maybe you didn’t get around to doing will really set your home up for a successful sale. Believe me, nothing gets past a home inspector, they are very thorough and it can mean a different between a successful sale and a buyer walking away because of items that were not seen by the eye at the viewing, however, will cost the buyer a substantial investment to put right after their purchase, I’ll get more into detail about the inspection further along.

Ready to List – Next Steps


So let’s get to the next step. When a buyer comes forwards and puts an offer on your home, once the price is negotiated and agreed along with the terms of the sale, a home inspection is then ordered (this is similar to a home buyers report in the UK), so it’s very in depth and literally everything functioning in the home is checked and put into the report. The buyer always has a home inspection contingency within the contract to protect them just incase there are any things that can’t be visibly seen by the eye, that may need to be addressed and some of those items can be deemed to be urgent. If that is the case, then these items will be required to be fixed prior to closing before the buyer moves forwards. So by setting yourself up for a successful sale from the get go is really the best way to plan for your sale.
