what's the best time to list my home?

the best time to put your house on the market really depends on you—your goals, your timing, and maybe how long it’s been since you last decluttered the garage. traditionally, spring gets a lot of love because everything looks fresh, bright, and floral, but let’s not forget—spring can also mean a crowd of other sellers competing for buyer attention. it's like showing up to a potluck where everyone brought the same dish.on the flip side, those quieter, chillier months could work in your favor with fewer homes on the market, creating a scarcity that can drive up demand.

it's all about playing the supply and demand game.the real key? picking a time when you’re ready, not just when the calendar says so. use that time to spruce up your home, tackle those little maintenance jobs you’ve been avoiding (yes, that squeaky door counts), and get it looking its best. with a bit of preparation and a solid launch date that fits around your schedule, you’ll be in great shape to wow buyers—whether it’s spring, winter, or a random wednesday in july.

how long will it take to sell my home?

the length of time it takes to sell your home, more commonly known in real estate sales terms as ‘days on market,’ will depend largely on the current market conditions. in markets where supply is low and demand is high, i.e. more buyers than homes, days on market are generally shorter. when the supply is high and demand low, days on market can become protracted. the advertised price of your house in comparison to other similar properties will also have a significant bearing on the time it takes to sell.

when searching for properties, buyers will overlook overpriced houses with the assumption that one, they feel it is out of their price range, and two, they feel other similar houses are priced more competitively. different marketplaces have different supply and demand pressures, and we recommend that you speak with our agency to provide you with relevant and current information on recent comparable sales and days on market statistics.

how can i make my home more appealing?

when selling a home, the best results are achieved when you can create an emotional connection between the buyer and the property. at our agency, we call this strategy ‘making your home their dream.’ you can download a complimentary copy here.

in this booklet, you will get handy tips on how to best present your home to appeal to the widest audience. we believe that presentation is a key element of a successful sale as is investing in quality marketing mediums to reach that audience. buyers search for properties for approximately six weeks before they venture out to physically inspect a home, so the way you promote the property online and in print media will have a direct effect to the type of buyer you attract.

I recently sold my home of 41 years with Luke and he worked tirelessly to achieve a result that completely exceeded my expectations. Luke is extremely knowledgeable and professional, he’s a great communicator and ensured that I was kept informed throughout the sale process. He is also a genuinely nice person and an absolute pleasure to work with and I would recommend him without hesitation.

Our selling experience with Julie was fantastic, she is very professional and definitely the Woodvale expert. The whole process was made so easy. Julie’s knowledge in her field and communication from start to finish was very much appreciated. We would highly recommend Julie O as an outstanding agent and also a lovely, friendly lady! Thank you!

Julie and her team made our house sale a very painless and straightforward process. From our initial meeting outlining the strategies and process, through great communications, advice and help to get the property ready to list, to fantastic local knowledge and an outcome above expectations, the whole process was expertly managed and we were thrilled at the end result. Would highly recommend as a seller to consider using Julie & Partners.

From our initial meeting we knew Luke was the perfect fit to sell our first home. His exceptional market knowledge, dedication and talent for negotiation made it a no brainer.
Luke supported us through this journey wIth his approachable nature and professionalism. We were so glad to have him on our team.
We highly recommend Luke.

Working with Luke was brilliant from start to finish! He gave honest and insightful comments about areas he recommended we improve in our rental property before selling it. Luke then visited during the renovation period to give feedback and encouragement with our progress. We were involved and informed in every step of the process once the property was listed, up till the property sold. Luke was very knowledgeable, punctual, calm, respectful and professional during all our dealings. AMAZING!
