Hi, my name’s Rachael Goldsworthy, and today I wanted to talk to you about going to somebody’s house just before they’re going to list the home for sale. When somebody lists their home for sale, they get quite nervous about the whole process. The agent goes out, has a look at the home, gives them an idea of the value of their home so that they can then list their home for sale. I had one particular person today that was looking at listing their home for sale, but was really anxious about the agent going out because well my house is untidy, or my backyard’s not right, or this is not right.

At the end of the day for what we do, and the way I see my role with the agency is that that’s our job to point out those things that need to be done. We can help you identify very quickly as to what a buyer’s looking for in a home, and what things that you need to tidy up with your home prior to selling. Things like zeroing weeds and gardens and general declutter, that’s all pretty normal things. Other things that we can identify pretty quickly in regards to homes, for example painting around gutters and storm water drains that aren’t connected, that aren’t normally things but as a result of that can cause other problems with the home.

If you wanted me to come out and have a look at your home and give you any ideas to what the value of your home maybe or any other things that might help you with the assist of the, assist you the the sale process, or get you a higher price, more than happy to do that. Once again, contact me if you’ve got any question.
