Sell with Confidence
Selling your property is a major decision. Compass combines local market knowledge, professional marketing and personal guidance to help you achieve the best possible outcome.
Start with the Right Price
Correct pricing is key to attracting serious buyers. Your Compass Property Practitioner can prepare a Comparative Market Analysis using recent sales, local demand and current market conditions.
The right price can help to:
- Attract more qualified buyers
- Generate stronger interest
- Reduce unnecessary time on the market
- Support better negotiations
Prepare Your Property
A well-presented property makes a strong first impression. Before listing, consider:
- Completing minor repairs and maintenance
- Decluttering and cleaning living spaces
- Tidying gardens and outdoor areas
- Improving kerb appeal
- Ensuring good lighting for photographs and viewings
We will help highlight your property’s best features and market it to the right buyers.
Important Seller Responsibilities
Sellers must accurately disclose known defects through the mandatory property disclosure form. Depending on the property and the terms of the sale, you may also need compliance certificates, such as electrical, electric-fence or gas certificates.
If you have an existing home loan, notify your bank early about the intended bond cancellation. You may also need to allow for municipal clearance, levy clearance where applicable, and agreed repairs.
Costs to Consider
Possible seller costs may include:
- Estate agency commission
- Bond cancellation fees
- Compliance certificates
- Municipal and levy clearance amounts
- Repairs agreed to in the Offer to Purchase
From pricing and marketing to offers, negotiations and transfer, Compass is with you throughout your selling journey. Your property. Our local knowledge. One professional journey.
