Pricing a home isn’t just about choosing a number and hoping for the best. It’s about positioning.

The first two weeks are when your property is likely to attract the most attention, and how it’s positioned during that window can have a significant impact on the final result.

The right pricing strategy can generate stronger enquiry, more inspections and, importantly, competition between buyers.

And competition is what drives premium prices.

If you’re preparing to sell and want independent advice on pricing and strategy, get in touch.

One of the most important parts of selling is understanding what is happening at each stage, especially when the role of a vendor advocate is new to you.

In Debby’s case, that meant having someone to act on her behalf once it was time to go to market — keeping her updated through the research, marketing, inspections and eventual sale.

That ongoing communication is a key part of how I work. It is not just about recommending an agent and stepping away. It is about staying involved, asking the right questions and making sure the seller understands the process as it unfolds.

Thank you, Debby, for your trust and kind feedback.

A great result for our vendors in Waterloo, with their apartment selling successfully prior to auction.

Selling before auction isn’t simply about receiving an early offer — it’s about assessing the strength of that offer against the level of buyer interest, likely competition and the risks and opportunities of continuing to auction day.

With the right advice and negotiation, our vendors were able to secure a result they were happy with and move forward with certainty.

A sincere thank you to our wonderful clients for placing your trust in us to guide you through the selling process. We wish you all the very best for what comes next.

Sydney recorded 516 properties scheduled for auction last week, with a preliminary clearance rate of 56.3%.

Auction volumes are continuing to rise as we approach Spring, increasing from just 407 scheduled auctions four weeks ago. However, clearance rates have remained relatively steady in the mid-50s.

The comparison with last year is particularly interesting. At the same time last year, Sydney had 825 properties scheduled for auction with an 80.4% clearance rate.

So despite having around 37% fewer auction properties competing for buyers, the clearance rate is substantially lower — a clear indication that buyer confidence and market conditions are still a concern.

As we head into spring, the real test will be what happens as more properties come to market. If supply continues to increase without a corresponding lift in buyer demand, sellers will face greater competition for the buyers who are active.

That doesn't mean properties can't achieve good results. It means preparation, realistic price positioning, choosing the right agent and having the right sales strategy from day one have never been more important.

If you're considering selling this Spring, let us help you choose the right agent and strategy to maximise your result — at no extra cost.

People sometimes ask how we are able to represent vendors across such a wide area of Sydney.

The answer is simple: my expertise is the process. The selling agent’s expertise is their local area knowledge.

My role is to identify and interview the strongest agents for each individual property, test their recommendations, compare their strategies and appoint the agent I believe is best equipped to achieve the strongest result for that particular vendor.

From there, I remain independently on the vendor’s side throughout the campaign — overseeing the strategy, communication, buyer feedback and negotiations.

It’s a process I’ve refined over more than a decade, and importantly, it’s repeatable — no matter which suburb the property is in.

84 suburbs so far… and counting.

There’s a lot of uncertainty around the Sydney property market right now — but sellers don’t need to predict exactly what happens next to make good decisions.

What matters more is knowing which parts of the sale you can actually control, from choosing the right agent and pricing strategy to preparation, buyer feedback and knowing when to change course.

In my latest article, I look at what sellers should be focusing on when the market feels less certain — and why those decisions can matter even more in a softer market.

Sydney recorded 482 properties scheduled for auction last week, with a preliminary clearance rate of 56.6%.

While the clearance rate remains relatively steady, the more interesting number this week is the increase in auction activity.

Just three weeks ago, only 407 properties were scheduled for auction. That has now increased to 482 — an uplift of around 18% — suggesting we may be starting to see the early signs of the traditional spring increase in supply.

Clearance rates have also improved from the sub-50% result recorded earlier this month and have now remained around 56–57% for the past three weeks. That's encouraging, although it's still too early to suggest we're seeing a significant shift in market conditions.

The real test will come as more properties enter the market. Will increased supply be matched by stronger buyer confidence and demand, or will greater choice put further pressure on sellers?

Either way, as competition between properties increases, getting the preparation, pricing and sales strategy right from the outset will become increasingly important.

If you're considering selling this spring, we help you choose the right agent and strategy to give your property the best opportunity of achieving a strong result — at no extra cost.
