Overall I was left disappointed with how my property was marketed and the overall sales strategy. The agent was hugely responsive and knowledgeable during the contract negotiations, then once the property hit the market, it went quiet… very quiet. Admittedly it was the start of the downturn to the market, but there didn’t appear to be any secondary sales tactic other than keep reducing the price. I’m fairly confident that if the agent had been more proactive in the earlier weeks/months, he could have secured a stronger sales price… instead it was left to stagnate online, while the agent focused on the big end of town. After 6 months, a low-ball offer was presented accompanied with hard sell to accept… when the best advice should have been to re-rent, given then bumper rental market. After a huge commission payment to the agent, not to mention the inflated marketing fees, I was left with next to nothing, other than regret.
