Six essential steps for a spring sale

 

Many homeowners will soon begin to consider listing their property for the upcoming spring real estate market. 

Spring is traditionally a peak time for home sales due to increased buyer activity and favourable weather conditions.

As an experienced real estate agency in your area, we’d recommend you begin thinking about a spring sale today. 

The next few months will be crucial to laying the groundwork for a successful spring listing. 

Below are some recommendations to help you through the process of selling your home and purchasing your next property. 

Money question – Contact your bank or mortgage broker for an assessment of your financial situation. It’s essential to understand your borrowing capacity if you plan to sell and then purchase again.

Selling power – You want to entrust your property to a motivated and knowledgeable agent with experience in the current market conditions and a track record of successfully selling your type of home. We’d be happy to help.

Paperwork – Buying and selling requires attention to detail. You need a partner with experience to navigate you through the paperwork. It’s a good idea to engage a solicitor or conveyancer in advance. They’ll handle all the legal documents and ensure a smooth transfer of ownership.

Declutter – Start this process early so you don’t rush to prepare your home for open home sessions and private inspections. If you depersonalise your home, buyers will be able to visualise themselves living in your property rather than feeling like visitors.

Prioritise – Talk to an agent about any improvements required before placing the property on the market. You should only spend money on fixes and enhancements that add immediate value or encourage a quick sale.

Spring appeal – As you intend to sell this coming spring, start thinking about improving your garden and decorating your home to embrace that feeling of springtime renewal. Ensure your home is light and bright. A high-quality presentation will significantly add value to your property.

Ben, Peter and Jade. You guys are the most awesome Real Estate Agents we have ever met. We went to hundreds of open homes and met many agents throughout our search for a home, yet we would come back to you straight away for our next house. Thank you!

Jaan Turia

Ben worked exceptionally hard on our behalf to get the sale over the line. Ours was not straightforward by any means, and Ben navigated through the many twists and turns to ensure a very satisfactory outcome for us. We highly recommend Ben. 🙂

Carla Shields

Ben and the team did an amazing job selling our house. They know the market so well and gave us the best advice throughout the whole process. We have used them before and so glad we choose to use them again. Highly recommended.

Alex Hewton – Malins

This is the second time we have sold with Ben and both times the result has been outstanding. On a personal level we click and its clear he actually cares about both the sellers and the buyers he is working with. The result we achieved and the sheer quantity of offers received in a dead market shows what an outstanding salesman and marketer Ben (and is his team) is.

Jo Mcgeachin

Ben was extremely easy to talk to and very informative about how things would progress. He listened to us and advised us about the right way to go. We are very happy with his pleasant and professional manner.

Jason Pepping

Ben is a very personable agent. He has excellent communication and was usually available to answer any questions we had, regardless of the hour!
