Selling Real Estate - Getting Started

Real Estate industry experts agree that the best time to sell a piece of real property is within the first 30 days it is exposed to the market.  This critical time-frame is when you are most likely to receive your best offer.

Little known fact: in Australia over 90% of all real estate is sold using the auction method. Their reasoning is … super-expose their property to the market place, eliminate the long term marketing process, create a competitive environment, and if it doesn’t bring a fair price, they can always list it the traditional way.
