So instead today I’ll give you some hints on how to get your property SOLD in this current market environment.

Firstly the rules are the same no matter what the economic climate is. The first key is presentation….make your property stand out in the crowd….insist on great photography. If you don’t like what the agent has taken make them go back and do better. Pay for a professional if that what it takes.

Secondly get the text right and captions in the adverts the internet flyers etc. to make people read it make them want too pick up the phone. Once again if you don’t think your agent has nailed it get them to revisit it.

Thirdly listen and investigate the market, your agent, hire a registered valuer if that what it takes to make sure you price the property right – sharply for the market.

Now don’t be scared to advertise, place your property on the gondola in the real estate supermarket. Put it out there don’t be shy.

Now when it comes to people visiting the property carry through with the presentation, lawns mowed exterior of house washed, garden weeded (make it look like its easy to keep) inside once again clean neat de-cluttered and tidy.  Put on a coffee pot make a fresh batch of scones (the agent gets hungry during “open homes”) and the smell of fresh baking makes a house feel homely.

Location location location is always a winner but to create a winner in today’s market it’s price price price presentation presentation presentation and promotion promotion promotion. The 3 “P’s” are more important than ever.

Put your faith in your agent, obtain professional opinions and advise and work as hard as your agent to get your property SOLD. As agents we can only bring you the market as the market see’s it, our job is too unearth every possible buyer. This can only be achieved by marketing and working agent data bases. The more your property is out there, newspapers, internet, open homes, flyers, window displays, magazines, blogs, agent newsletters etc the more chance of your property being found by it’s new owner.

And don’t forget the fresh cooking for the agent at the “open homes” it is appreciated – my favourite is cup cakes but I’m also partial to anzac biscuits – you beauty!
