The Timing

It really does start with why you want to sell a Randburg property.  And, selling your biggest asset is a big deal and a big deal that is not lost with Cornerstone Realty. Then it becomes about when the best time is to sell your home.  Getting the timing right is essential.  The warmer weather and the rain that has just fallen and will continue to sell will see our gardens start to turn green and lush.  Gardens play an important role when you sell a property, especially for a freestanding home with a great garden.  The warmer weather has seen our buyers come out of hibernation and they are hungry to buy their dream homes.  Chances are if you list a property in October and you have a good estate agent that can push the ‘what needs to come next’ you could be out of your home by Christmas or early in the New Year.  With the new school year only months away, families are looking for shorter commutes to school.  The market has heated up so nicely and selling your home with more favourable market conditions is a sure thing.

The Location Of Your Property

The price of a property is largely determined by the location of your property, meaning which suburb is your property in that you have plans to sell.  If the demand is high based on the access to schools, reachable traffic and great local amenities that’s already going in your favour.  The condition of your property is essential.  This to a large extent drives the value of your property when we list.  And the plan is to sell your property as close to the listing price as possible. 

Quality Plays A Vital Role When You Sell Your Randburg Property

When we speak about quality we mean a few things.  A quality estate agent is the first choice you will need to make.  The quality of your home is a key factor in determining with you what your property is worth and we refer to a number of essential reports that will help to determine what your home is worth in the current market.  The quality of your home is essential.  In order to get a mint-condition price you need a mint-condition property.

The Price We Can List Your Property For And The Sales Price

This is quite possibly the most important decision you will need to make.  Listing above what the market is paying for homes in the area will mean a longer sale with a bit more frustration.  It is possible to sell a property that is correctly priced quickly.  A market-related price in the current market is absolutely essential.  If it is priced right it will sell fast.  We will help you to achieve the best possible price in the current market.  Also, the sales price sets the pace for the number of viewings you can and should expect.  If your property is listed and there are just now viewings, chances are the price is out of kilter.  We all want more for our properties when they sell but it’s the buyers that view all the properties in an area that know value when they see value.  Nicole and I work very hard with our buyers to ensure that 1 they qualify for the home in terms of the price they are viewing.  And 2 that we can bring you an offer that is as close as possible to the asking price.  The market is testy at the moment and so are the buyers.  We are required as qualified property practitioners to present you with every offer we receive.  We work hard with buyers to lift the price to an acceptable level that we know you will accept.

The Risks To Consider When You Sell A Randburg Property

There are a number of risks to consider here which include:

  • The external factors like the economy, the high interest rates, the pending water issues in Randburg and more.
  • The risks you don’t have to worry about are how would your property be showcased online across all the major property portals.  Great listings attract great buyers and great buyers put in great offers.
  • The risk is that working with an inexperienced estate agent who is not experienced in managing counter-offers that produce results means you may not get the best price when you sell.  Work with an experienced estate agent in your area to ensure you get the very best of all the elements that go into not just selling your home but getting you the very best price when you do sell your home.

The Price Of Your Randburg Property

One of the biggest risks you do face when you sell a Randburg property is not listing a property with the correct price.  If you go too high, buyers simply miss your listing.  Buyers shop in price bands and the banks provide pre-approvals that help buyers to shop for the properties they can afford so looking in a price range is absolutely essential from a buyer’s perspective.
