10 Rule #2 Professional photographs Don t cut corners on photos by doing them yourself, there is a huge difference between amateur and professional photographs. For a dusk shoot make sure all lights are working (inside and outside). Open the curtains, turn on table lamps, range hood, close toilet lids, remove washing from the line and keep pets out of sight. 10

12 Rule #3 Open for inspection Many owners see these as an inconvenience and just hard work! Wrong if you want to sell your home quickly ask us for a copy of our OFI Checklist. Open homes work and well presented homes SELL FAST! 12

13 Rule #4 Conducting a preliminary building & pest inspection The western suburbs are notorious for termite issues and buyers will run a mile if nests are discovered during inspections when was your last check? 13

14 Rule #5 Bank valuation/inspection Don t take this for granted no finance generally means no we understand the valuation process and work closely with the Valuer to ensure that they have all the information they require to assess your properties value correctly Banks will lend a percentage of the LOWER of the valuation figure or the contract purchase price. The valuation figure on a purchase will rarely be the purchase price. A variance of more than 5% would need to be critically examined qualitative data is critical to this process. 14

15 Rule #6 Street signage it works I don t want a sign up is a familiar catch cry by vendors not wanting neighbours to know their business. If you are serious about selling you will have a sign up as quickly as possible 10% of buyers come off the street sign. 15
