Selling your property should be a positive process maximising your financial outcome and minimising unnecessary stress.
Teaming up with the right real estate agent and agency is an important step in achieving the best possible sales outcome for you. Our agents can guide you on what is happening in the market, timings, how the process works and act as support people helping you navigate your course towards a successful sale.
Choosing your agent
Choosing a good agent early in your selling process can be very beneficial, helping you to get outside advice about the best way to prepare your residence for sale. They can draw on their experience to recommend if there are manageable changes you can make to significantly increase your sales price or whether improvements you’re thinking of making before listing are necessary. They’ll work with you to decide what marketing and advertising will best suit your sales campaign, organising expert third party assistance from everyone from photographers and printers.

Planning
There are timing decisions to be made. Many people choose to sell their existing property before they buy another to minimise the risk of ending up owning two properties simultaneously and perhaps having to take bridging finance.
Planning what sort of timing you need can also affect your choice of sales process. Deadline-related methods such as auctions, deadline sales or tenders may lead to a prompter sale than offering your property without a timeframe.
If you plan to sell a property which is tenanted you should be fully aware of the responsibilities you have to current tenants and Ray White Parnell can also advise you on this. As tenants are paying to enjoy the property, they can set reasonable limits on access to the property for viewings etc and can refuse to have their personal property appear in photography.
