How I appraise your home

Find out what’s involved when you ask me to come and appraise your home, and read what makes my appraisals a uniquely valuable tool for you.

There’s an old saying that good luck happens when preparation meets opportunity. I’m a busy real estate agent, buzzing around Wellington all day, every day and this gives me an insider’s view into our local market.
My experience and industry perspective will provide a uniquely relevant insight into individual results by property type being achieved around our suburbs, and what a realistic value range for your home will be.
Here’s my two step process of preparing a comparative market appraisal (CMA) for your home:

Step 1.

I will visit your home in person for a tour of your property and a confidential chat.

  • I will listen and take notes and photos to understand your plans and motivations for selling
  • I will take the time to talk through all the potential methods of sale, and offer my recommendations
  • I will explain the benefits of all of the different marketing options, including those that are unique to me, that other agents can’t provide
  • I will talk about the team of experts that I have on hand to help you present your home at it’s best: I have excellent tradespeople, gardeners, painters, home stylists and stagers, photographers, videographers and more
  • I will explain to you what full service real estate is all about.

Step 2

I will return for a second in person visit and present you with a written proposal that will provide:

  • •An honest current market price indication based on recent comparable sales. This is the price range that I think your property will achieve, based on real activity in today’s market
  • Options and my recommendations for:
    • The timing of your sales campaign
    • Presenting your home for sale
    • Marketing and advertising
    • Method of sale.

What you can expect from me

  • I’ll be positive, but realistic about where the market sees value and what I can achieve. I’m in real estate for the long game, so I make a point to never overpromise.
  • I am proud of the reliability of my appraisals and I consistently have registered valuers seeking my advice to inform their work.
  • I set out to add the most value I can for you, and I am always fair and reasonable with the agent commission I propose.
  • A chat with me to appraise your home will help you make preparations for turning the challenge of selling your place into a fabulous opportunity to realise it’s value.
  • I will bring a pack of the best available information to help guide you through every step of the process of selling your home.
