Selling a home is a significant milestone, and understanding the process can help you navigate it with confidence. At First National Real Estate Moss Vale, we guide you through each stage, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience. Below is a step-by-step timeline of what to expect when selling your home in NSW.
Choosing the right real estate agent is crucial. A professional agent will provide expert market advice, recommend the best sales strategy, and handle negotiations on your behalf. At First National Real Estate Moss Vale, we pride ourselves on our local expertise and commitment to achieving the best results for our clients.
Once you’ve selected an agent, you’ll sign an agency agreement that outlines the terms of the sale, commission structure, and marketing plans. This is a legal requirement and ensures transparency between you and your agent.
Your solicitor or conveyancer will prepare the Contract of Sale, including essential property details, zoning certificates, and any required disclosures. This document must be completed before your property can be listed for sale.
First impressions matter. Decluttering, making minor repairs, and staging your home can significantly impact its appeal. Professional photography and marketing materials are also prepared at this stage to attract potential buyers.
Your property will be listed on key real estate platforms, social media, and our agency’s website. We conduct a targeted marketing campaign, ensuring your home reaches the right buyers.
We schedule open homes and private inspections to showcase your property to potential buyers. This phase is crucial in generating interest and competition among buyers.
Throughout the campaign, we provide you with regular updates on buyer inquiries, feedback, and market interest. This helps in making informed decisions about price adjustments or marketing strategies.
When buyers express interest, we facilitate negotiations to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome. We guide you through the pros and cons of each offer and help you decide the most suitable one.
Once an offer is accepted, the buyer may conduct final checks, such as building and pest inspections, or secure financial approvals. This is the due diligence phase before contracts are formally exchanged.
Contracts are exchanged between both parties, with a standard cooling-off period (unless sold via auction). During this time, the buyer can withdraw from the purchase under certain conditions.
Settlement usually occurs 4-6 weeks after contract exchange. The buyer finalises payment, legal documents are processed, and keys are handed over. Congratulations, your property is officially sold!
