Sell with confidence and peace of mind.
Your home is your biggest asset. Knowing what it is worth will help you plan your financial future. If you decide to take the plunge and sell your property. Deep breath. We know this is a huge decision, financially and emotionally. The process should be stress-free, and the result should be top-dollar. That’s why it helps to have a team that understands that real estate is about people, and are dedicated to helping you with one of life’s biggest milestones.
WHY YOU NEED A MARKET APPRAISAL
Knowing what your property is worth can unlock options you might not know you have.
Information is power, and power means options. When you have a current market appraisal, you know what your property is worth in real terms, today. With that information, you might discover options you haven’t considered, such as unlocking equity to buy an investment property or allowing you to adjust your mortgage to get that new kitchen, swimming pool, or an extension for a growing family. Getting a market appraisal does not commit you to sell your property, but it goes a long way in helping you plan your financial future.
MAXIMISING YOUR SALE PRICE
A great first impression puts you in the running for a premium sale price.
There are no tricks of the trade when it comes to getting maximum value for your property. You need a plan, a proven sales process, and the best team marketing and negotiating on your behalf. But there are several factors in your control that go a long way, such as how your property is presented. Our years of experience and eye for detail can help you learn about the key aspects of presenting your property that will impact how quickly you sell, and the price you get.
Marketing matters
Make your property stand out from the crowd
If you want a premium price for your property, you need to get attention. More attention means more interest and more interest means more in your pocket. Good marketing pays off. Achieving a premium price for your property means combining the best in digital marketing, professional photography and knowing how to find and target the right buyers. With the right selling method for the right time, you’re in a winning position.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT REAL ESTATE AGENT
Competition? We embrace it.
The decision to sell your property is massive, don’t rush in. It needs the right person working for you and could make you thousands of dollars on your sale. It’s best to interview three agents before committing to listing your property. Just make sure one of those is a Laurence Morgan agent. We say interview because the right agent for your property will have the experience, knowledge, and skills to make it an exciting event where you are in control. Get a real estate agent who puts your needs ahead of theirs, one that helps you maximise your sale price so you can comfortably move on to the next phase of your life.
Safety in numbers.

Top 10 mistake to avoid when selling
There is no cookie-cutter approach to selling because no two properties are the same. Market supply and buyer demand will help determine the method of sale best suited to you and your property.
