There are generally 5 concerns people have when they are considering selling a property, these are;
Your choice of agent……..your choice of the agency and salesperson is crucial to the success of the sale of your property. Choose a salesperson who can prove they have the level of experience and skill that you require.
The price…….it is the market that determines the value of your property not the salesperson. Do not listen to any pricing stories unless the price the agent is suggesting is logically showed to you and you have written comparisons.
The marketing plan…….every agent must have a thorough marketing plan that is specifically taylored to you needs and to your property. Be wary of agents who suggest you need to spend thousand of dollars to sell your property.
The agents fee……not all agents fees are the same but do not fall into the trap of going with the agent who has the lowest fee. Choose an agent who’s fee is reasonable in your market place.
The service…….all agents should offer you a guarantee of the level of service that you will receive. If you do not receive this level then you are permitted to break the exclusive agency agreement.
Some other things you should consider for your checklist when selling a property are;
Presentation…..the way that your property presents to a prospective purchaser could mean the difference between a sale or not. Make sure that you look at your property objectively and from the buyers point of view. If you need help with this ask your agent, they should be able to give you’re an accurate idea of what buyers look for.
Marketing Expenses…….have your agent present a well thought out marketing campaign that does not involve spending thousands of dollars in advertising. There are many different ways of exposing your property to the potential market place and a good agent will logically point out your options. If you are asked to contribute to the campaign, don’t be stingy, your investment in the marketing expenses is an investment in obtaining the final sale price.
Method of Sale…….there are 3 methods available to sellers in NSW. The 3 agency agreement types are, Exclusive, Auction or General. The majority of real estate in Byron Bay is sold by using the Exclusive Agency Agreement. Recent figures have shown that approx 83% of sellers choose this method and get pleasing results.
Agent Guarantee……you should only deal with an agent that offers you a written guarantee that the service they say they will provide you is actually provided. Lets face it, there are some agents who will just list you and leave you, sometimes for as long as 6 months. A guarantee is your insurance policy against these types of agents.
