Selling a house in Cairns: your questions answered

How do you choose the best real estate agent in Cairns?

Ask every agent three questions before you sign an agency agreement, Tony Williamson says:

1. How many properties have you personally sold? Look for results you can verify.
2. How will you work out what my house is worth? A credible appraisal uses recent comparable sales and current market conditions.
3. What have you invested in your own education and negotiation skills? It shows how seriously the agent takes representing sellers.

How much is my house worth in Cairns?

Tony Williamson offers Cairns homeowners a free, no-obligation property appraisal. It estimates a likely selling range from recent comparable sales, local demand, competing listings and the property’s features.

An agent’s appraisal guides selling decisions. It is not a formal valuation by a registered valuer, which banks, tax and legal matters require.

What should you do if your house isn’t selling in Cairns?

Review the strategy before cutting the price. Check six things: asking price, advertising, presentation, buyer feedback, competing listings and method of sale.

“If you can’t sell your property in Cairns, it might be time to question whether you have the right agent and the right strategy,” Williamson says. “Sometimes a fresh perspective, a different level of experience and a new approach to the market can make all the difference.”

Owners whose agency appointment is ending can ask for a second opinion while respecting their current agreement.

What does it cost to sell with Tony Williamson?

Sellers choose their marketing spend, from no additional advertising to a full deluxe campaign, and auctions carry no extra auctioneer fee. Commission and all selling costs are set out before an agency agreement is signed.
