What we know is coming for property owners with plans to sell?
- As we enjoy the respite we have from Load shedding we know that Load shedding will resume after the elections. We all just know it.
- As we wait in anticipation for the interest rate to come down, chances are it may change this year and chances are it will not.
- We eagerly await the outcome of our SA general elections which we all hope will change the course of our future for this beautiful country.
If it’s time to sell your Randburg property, the Biggest Tips Are…
- Declutter your home and get it as neat and tidy as possible. The response from buyers who determine what you will sell your home for is phenomenal when your home looks perfect and absolutely ready to sell. Everything is in its place, clean, well-maintained, painted and just perfect. The best first impression when a buyer arrives at your home for a viewing is when it is clean, tidy and well-maintained.
- Finish off all those little things and those little projects you know need to finish off. Finish painting the inside of your home or undertake that exterior paint finish this winter. Selling a property that is in mint condition will ensure you get a mint condition price when you sell your Randburg property.
- Price it right and with this I mean understand the benefits of pricing your property accurately to ensure a sale. If you are planning on a wishing price, then a wishing price it will be. But the market decides what the price is that your property will sell at. Not you the property owner and certainly not me. I am a full-status, licensed and seasoned Randburg real estate agent who leverages a number of things that will help determine the best price at which to list your property. If that price is R1,900,000 then it is NOT R2,100,000. A R200,000 difference in the wrong direction does not result in an accurate price. A bloated price of R200,000 does not get you noticed in an extremely competitive Randburg property market.
Are you waiting till after the elections to see?
If you are waiting till after the elections that’s also ok. But waiting to list your property for sale if you are in fact, ready to sell your Randburg property market now, consider listing your property for sale now. There are some serious buyers in the market at the moment. We may see the interest rates drop a little this year but we may not see them drop. We will see Load shedding resume and we are expecting a good result for SA’s general elections.
Are you ready to get started on your Randburg property sale?
If you are then you know every home has 1 buyer. It takes 15 seconds to fall in love with a property and it takes 15 seconds to therefore decide this is not for you. Often, a home that needs a great deal of work leaves the impression, frankly, of, “there is just too much to do on this property”. Many buyers don’t want to have to make major changes then they move in. They want to move in and live in your home and they want it in mint condition.
When your home is in mint condition it gets a mint condition price
Again, and I repeat this, the market determines the price at which your property will sell. A property that has been well-maintained and where the property is clearly in mint condition will easily command a mint condition price. If you need assistance with what should ideally be done on your home to get it into mint condition give me a ring on 083 550 1220. The recommendations I make are practical and budget-friendly and often we see things you don’t even notice because we meet with buyers daily who notice absolutely everything. If it’s almost time to sell your Randburg property, get your property into mint condition now then let’s chat.
What will happen after the elections?
Well, I can say this. The Randburg property market is not just shifting. IT HAS SHIFTED, meaning we are seeing the following:
- Property sales numbers have dropped.
- Sales transaction prices have dropped but are in line with market corrections.
- Sales inventory or stock levels have lifted.
- Buyers are a little more reluctant than ever and even more willing to negotiate a much lower price.
- Sellers are increasingly out of touch with key property-related information and the growth we are seeing for the Randburg property market against what the market is willing to pay.
- Anxiety levels for all the above are high as we march to an expected outcome, some known and some unknown.
