Choosing the Method of Sale – Private Treaty or Auction

When you sell your home by private treaty, your property goes onto the market at a predetermined asking price. We will discuss marketing strategies to give your property the best possible exposure in the marketplace which suits your individual situation.

To sell through an auction process, the amount you want for the property is generally not revealed to potential buyers who are encouraged to attend the auction and bid for the property against other potential buyers. Auctions have become an increasingly popular way to sell or buy residential property, but before you decide to go down that path, do your homework and familiarise yourself with the process and what it involves.

Handy hints to prepare your home:

• Street Appeal:
  Make sure the front of your home looks appealing and inviting with a weed-free garden or create an instant garden with flowering plants, lawns mowed plus a fresh coat paint on fences and gates.
• Inside:
  Clean kitchen and bathroom/s thoroughly and ensure no mould
  Make sure all beds are made
  You may like to hire furniture to create the look you desire
  De-clutter – less clutter makes rooms appear larger
  Increase the sense of space with mirrors, lights and leave all internal doors open
  Fix any minor repairs
  Create warmth by preparing your home to suit the temperature of the day. If it’s cold, light fires; turn on patio heaters and heating. If it’s hot, turn on fans and cooling systems.
• Pets: Always clean and tidy pet areas
• Pool: Pool cleaned and equipment stored
