The process from Decision to Satisfaction

should be a memorable experience

​

1. Choosing an agent. Your agent will be in charge of advertising, showing and completing the legal requirements of selling your property, so choose carefully. Find an agent who you feel comfortable with and who shows determination.

2. Next you’ll decide how you want to sell. You and your agent will work out a plan for listing, showing and selling your property. 

3. Determining your selling price and property inclusions comes next. Your property’s location, size, age and features will be assessed, as will the current market and area trends. We will supply a free market appraisal

4.  You’ll sign a listing agreement with your agent. This legally binding contract will detail any commissions, the estimated sale price, duration of the agreement, advertising costs, process and much much more.

5. We will do showings, open homes and followup reports to beint a suitable buyer for your property.

6. A Sale and Purchase agreement will be presented to you and if approved on price and conditions would go throughto  your solicitor or conveyancer. These will include all of the details prospective purchasers will need.

7. Your agent could possible have arranges to auction your property or mediate between you and buyers to reach a mutually acceptable price. The buyer will then pay a deposit.

8. Under contract. Both seller and buyer’s lawyers and banks will work out the details of the sale to ensure both parties meet all legal and financial requirements.

9. Building inspections will be done to bring about building approval.

10. Settlement day. All going to plan, you’ll relinquish the keys and legal rights to your property in exchange for the balance of payment from the buyer or their bank. Congratulations, you have sold your home!
