🏠 What to Consider When Selecting Your Agent 🏠
Selling your home is a big decision and finding the right agent is key to a smooth & successful property journey. Here’s what to look for when choosing the right agent to help you achieve your goals!
🔑 Experience Matters
- An experienced agent brings valuable knowledge and skill to every stage of the process.
- They’ve tackled everything from tough negotiations to unexpected hurdles and are confident in delivering results that align with your goals.
- Ask about their track record, client reviews and past sales to gauge their success.
📍 Local Knowledge is Key
- A great agent understands local market trends inside and out
- Their insight and knowledge of your suburb helps price your property competitively to attract the right buyers.
- Local expertise ensures your property stands out to the right audience.
📞 Clear Communication
- Look for an agent who listens to your needs and keeps you informed every step of the way.
- Ensure your agent explains the process clearly and answers your questions promptly
- Clear communication builds trust, ensuring no detail is overlooked and you’re always in the loop.
📣 Marketing That Works
- How will they showcase your property? A professional marketing plan should include high-quality photos, engaging descriptions, and strategic online listings to predominant property sites
- An agent's marketing strategy should also extend to their network and beyond, targeting both local and out-of-town buyers to maximise exposure
🔗 Network & Reputation
- The right agent isn’t just working for you – they’re leveraging a network of buyers, agents and industry contacts to maximise your property’s reach
- Their reputation amongst other professionals can help you reach serious buyers and get your property noticed.
- Ask how they’ll leverage their connections and network to deliver the best results.
💰 Value Beyond Fees
- The cheapest agent isn’t always the best choice. A skilled agent's ability to secure the very best price that the market will pay for your property often outweighs a lower fee.
- Look for an agent with experience and a proven sales record to maximize your return on investment.
