Step 1. Work out your timing
Are you moving, downsizing, selling an investment or buying another home? Your preferred settlement date and any finance requirements may affect how you approach offers. Involve your broker and solicitor early when a purchase is linked to your sale.
Step 2. Review comparable sales and buyer demand
A market appraisal considers settled comparable sales, your property's features, competing stock and current buyer feedback. The purpose is to understand the range of possible outcomes and build a campaign that fits your home.
Step 3. Prepare the home and paperwork
We can identify the cleaning, maintenance, photography and styling that will make the biggest practical difference. Queensland's seller disclosure obligations also need early attention. Speak with your solicitor about Form 2 and the prescribed certificates relevant to your property.
Step 4. Choose a marketing approach
Some homes can benefit from initial conversations with qualified buyers and buyer agents before a public campaign. Other homes need broad exposure immediately. The right decision depends on your circumstances and the price evidence, not a fixed formula.
Step 5. Inspections, feedback and negotiations
Buyer groups, second inspections and offer conditions all matter. Good updates explain what people liked, what they questioned, where offers sit and what happens next. A strong price with unsuitable conditions is not always the best overall offer.
Step 6. Contract, conditions and settlement
Once terms are agreed, your solicitor handles the legal contract and settlement process. Timelines vary according to the contract, finance, building inspections and each party's needs. Plan for the handover and pre settlement inspection.
