Downsizing for your retirement
We can take care of selling your home so you can relax and retire
Downsizing to Retire doesn’t have to be stressful
Selling a property is stressful, time consuming, unpredictable and can cost you thousands if you don’t get the best price because of poor advice or pressure from a selling agent to sell for less than what your property is really worth. As vendor advocates we guide you through the entire process – handpicking local agents, ensuring competitive fees and upholding an ethical and professional campaign. We will be with you throughout the entire selling process. We’ll help you to set realistic price expectations and be your sounding board throughout the marketing campaign, so you can make good decisions. We will assist you with negotiating the best price and settlement terms to suit your needs. If you decide to Auction your property then we will be there to hold your hand through the day.
Why use us to oversee the sale of your home
TIME
We can save you time by having a streamlined process for the sale of your property from start to finish. This includes researching the best agents, interviewing and selecting an agent. Making sure that you have the appropriate marketing, legal documents and home opens times approved upfront. By having these systems in place should reduce the time it takes to sell your home.
MONEY
When selling we can provide advice on staging your home, recommendations on improving the street appeal of your property or minor cosmetic repairs that could add tens of thousands of dollars to the value of your home. As experienced negotiators we can also assist with negotiating the agents commission, and the ultimate sales price of your property. These negotiations can save you many thousands of dollars.

Where do you start
Proactive Property Advocates offer a wealth of experience and local knowledge together with an exceptional track record in Sales. The housing market is always changing. Your home’s value could be fluctuating based on any number of things, from its curb appeal to a recent sale of a neighbouring home. We’re always on top of neighbourhood trends and have access to unique tools that let us price and market your home accurately.
The thought of selling your home and downsizing can be overwhelming. Theses fears could potentially delay you from listing your home for sale as the realisation of what the actual move will involve takes hold and inertia can set in.
