"What building materials should we use?", "How can we include energy-saving features?", " How (and when) will the final price for my home be determined?" or "How can we minimise unexpected costs and what warranties and guarantees will my new home have?"
Questions like these are exactly the sort of things we can help with at our Jennian New Home Builder Info Sessions. Book a FREE complimentary seat at our next info session in your area.
It's a question as old as time itself-what do you do first-sell your property or buy a property? Many of us are terrified that if we sell the place we're in and we've got nowhere to go, we'll have nowhere to live.

If you have the resources to buy a new property outright-you're home and hosed. But if you don't have the available cash and you buy a place first, you have legally committed yourself meaning you may have to seek bridging finance. As a result, you could be paying interest on two properties until you sell your original home.
However, there can be a very attractive upside to buying before you sell.When you buy first you know exactly where you're moving and when. Just make sure you don't get caught out. You don't want to get into a situation where you have overestimated the value of your existing property, meaning you could be selling at a loss and end up servicing two loans!
Invite an astute local agent to give you a market appraisal on your current property and a changeover analysis on the cost to sell your existing property together with the cost to buy your new home. This information will allow you to separate the financial facts from your emotions in order to make an educated (as opposed to an emotional) decision.
If you do decide to purchase first, there are a number of things you can do to make your place easier to sell quickly. Just ensure you give yourself plenty of time to get your property ready for showcasing to potential buyers. Not many people realise that there are 137 components to listing, selling and settling a property. Typically, it takes at least two weeks of solid work to prepare a property for sale. Properties need to be tidied, cleaned de-cluttered, photos have to be taken, editorials have to be written, floor plans drawn, digital files created, legal docs approved and the signboard installed on site. Plus the ongoing preparation for open homes and weekly viewings. If you are planning on selling privately you then have the added workload of the sales process, buyer communication, legal costs to draft offers, inspections and settlement processes.
Remember, you only get one chance to make a great first impression.So it's vital to make sure your property "shines" when it is showcased on the market especially if you need it to sell quickly.
If you would like to have a chat about your options as well as an expert opinion on the "live" market value of your home please give me call on 021738769.
