Selling well comes down to pricing, presentation and exposure. Alan reviews recent comparable sales and neighbourhood trends to advise on price, and supports you from listing through closing.
Selling process
Pricing advice
Set a competitive list price based on recent comparable sales, neighbourhood trends and your home's condition.
Home preparation
Decluttering, cleaning and small repairs help the home photograph well and show at its best.
Listing and marketing
Professional photos, a clear listing description and publication on major platforms, with showings arranged.
Showings and offers
Showing activity is managed and offers are collected and compared on price and terms together.
Negotiation and closing
Negotiate price and conditions, then work with your lawyer to complete the sale.
Frequently asked questions
How is the list price set?
Mainly from recent comparable sales, neighbourhood trends, the home's condition and current supply and demand. Pricing too high can extend time on market; pricing too low can leave money on the table.
Do I need to renovate before selling?
Not necessarily. Cleaning, decluttering and minor repairs usually offer the best return; whether a larger renovation pays off depends on the home and the market.
How long does selling take?
It depends on pricing, market conditions and the home itself, so time from listing to closing varies.
What costs come with selling?
Common costs include agent commission, legal fees and preparation expenses. Exact amounts follow your agreements and invoices.
