Curious about what a deadline sale is?

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Curious about what a deadline sale is? Well, it's pretty straightforward, but let's break it down in simple terms.

* Create a Buzz: Setting a deadline date creates a sense of urgency. Buyers start buzzing, wondering if they should make their move before time runs out. It's like turning your property into the talk of the town!

* Flexibility is Key: With a deadline sale, you're the boss! Set the date that suits you, and let the offers roll in. Plus, if you're open to it, buyers might sneak in offers before the big day, giving you more options to consider.

* Price Mind Games: Throw in a price guide, and watch as buyers strategise whether to meet, beat, or go wild with their offers. It's a bit like hosting your own real estate poker night! 🃏

* Conditions in Your Favour: Sellers, you call the shots! Attach your preferred terms and conditions to the sale. Whether it's the ideal settlement date or specifying which treasures stay with the house, it's your time to shine as the director of this show! 🎬

* Stay in Control: Worried about meeting buyer conditions or need a little wiggle room? No sweat! You hold the reins. Communicate with your lawyer, conveyancer, and your real estate ace ASAP. Keeping the lines of communication open keeps you firmly in control.

* The Power of the Deposit: A serious buyer means a serious deposit. You get a chunk of commitment right off the bat when the deal is accepted or conditions are met. It's like a down payment on a smooth, hassle-free sale.

* Smooth Sailing to Settlement: The remaining funds hit your account on settlement day, and the keys officially change hands. No last-minute hiccups, just a smooth sail into your next chapter.

* Potential Multi-Offer Situation: If your home is a hot commodity, a deadline sale could turn into a multi-offer spectacle! More offers, more excitement, and potentially, more value for your property. It's like hosting a bidding war where everyone's a winner! 🏆

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
