Choosing an Agent
Don't make the mistake of choosing your agent based solely on the fees they are going to charge and the price they say they will achieve on your property. The market decides the ultimate sale price, the agent is there to ensure the property is marketed correctly and to use their negotiation skills to maximise the price the buyer is prepared to pay. Choose your agent based on their experience, their knowledge and their enthusiasm for what they do. Ask about properties that the agent has sold in your area and check references from previous customers. You are charging the agent with a great deal of responsibility make sure you are comfortable dealing with them and that you trust their judgement.Recent Sales
Make sure you do your homework before putting your home on the market. What prices have been achieved for properties in the area and how much stock is currently on the market? Remember the laws of supply and demand, the less there is on the market competing with your property the more likely you will achieve a high price.Selling Tips
Try to be objective about the presentation of your home, and if you cant be ask your agent or a trusted friend for some input. A little time spent on sprucing up tired paint work and overgrown gardens can have a huge impact on the price you achieve as well as significantly reducing the time it takes to sell.Auction or Private Treaty
