“Hi. Andrew , Just a letter to thank you for your support and assistance in selling my home. I had it listed on 17 websites before yours but no serious offers. After 2 weeks I had a buyer from your area and after a visit it was sold !!!!!!. So good luck with your operation and I have already recommended you to others who have since listed . So all the best.”

Private Sale Advice Print E-mail
1Be available to receive enquiry! Nobody will buy your house if they can't get in to see it. If you advertise a phone number for buyers to contact you on, be there to answer it. If you advertise an email address, be sure to check it regularly. Perhaps the most obvious thing - but we can't stress it enough.
2Presentation! Presentation! Presentation! Wherever possible make sure that you house is clean and tidy for inspections. Little things like having the lawn mowed or the dishes done can make all the difference to a buyers first impression of your home.
3Create an Atmosphere. To assure your home is at it's most appealing consider having coffee brewing or cookies baking during the inspection
4Another note on presentation, maybe hold a garage sale to remove clutter from your home. You want to create a feeling of space.
5Don't try to be a smooth salesperson - just be relaxed and genuine with buyers.
6Organise building and pest inspections for your home if possible. This will stop any worries that prospective purchasers might have about white ants etc.
7During an inspection, make sure not to rave to the buyers or go off an tangents. Give the buyers your full attention and answer any questions they might have.
8Make up page or booklet about your home to give to prospects. Buyers can sometimes view numerous properties within a day and this will help them remember yours.
9Make sure that you price your home correctly. There is no bigger deterrent to buyers than an overpriced home. Check out some Australian websites offering house price evaluations or consider hiring a private valuer. Most importantly, try to be realistic about your homes value.
10When you do find a serious buyer, try to keep things on the move. Once you have discussed the buyers concerns and desire regarding the sale, get into contact with solicitors on both sides and maintain that until the contract settles.Keep all parties in the loop until the sale has gone through.
