The Selling Process
The process of selling property usually follows a regular pattern:
- Initially you would seek a property appraisal, whereby an agent inspects the house or apartment and talks you through the overall process.
- Once this formal inspection is completed, our experienced team will discuss your preferred method of sale and an advertising strategy with you.
- The next step is to complete all property listing details and schedule an open home inspection.
- It is vital that your agent promotes your dwelling to the best of their ability and resources - e.g. take appropriate photographs, ensure signage is clear and well attached and engage in local marketing online, as well as newspapers and in your agent's display windows.
- The next important aspect is negotiating the sale - your agent will be seeking the best price and conditions from interested buyers.
- At this point, your agent will assist with the purchaser's finance, sale of property, building inspections and other conditions where necessary.
- Once exact terms are agreed on by both parties, a security deposit is taken from the buyer and copies of the contract are given to the solicitors or conveyancers on each side.
- All parties confirm their agreement to the terms and conditions and that the sale has been finalised so that keys can be transferred to the new owner and a settlement day arranged.
- The new owners move into the property and the sale process is officially completed.
