There is no substitute for a proven track record, excellent communication, negotiation skills, and experience in the real estate market.
Who you work with to sell your property is a big decision so it pays to ask around and do some research. Don’t be hesitant to interview your salesperson. You’re effectively giving them a job, so ask yourself – and them – do they believe your property can get a great result and are they prepared to work hard on your behalf.
We encourage anyone looking to sell to:
- Check out online profiles including social media
- Choose people known to be great communicators and are well-established, experienced sales people can present your property to much a wider marketplace
- Read company brochures and advertising, look to see if the work is consistent and professional, is the spelling and grammar correct and are the photos high quality
- Ask if training is up-to-date and how individual ensure they remain current with legislation and all aspects of the sale process
- Ask for testimonials from satisfied clients and look online at social media comments
And lastly, trust your instincts – you will spend a lot of time working closely with this person so it’s got to feel right for you.
