Real Estate With Brittani

Staging and decluttering your house for sale can significantly impact the speed and success of the sale process. Here are several key benefits: 1. Improved First Impressions Enhanced Curb Appeal : A well-staged home with minimal clutter looks more inviting and attractive, making a strong first impression on potential buyers.

Imagine being able to sell your home without incurring any charges. Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it?  In the dynamic real estate landscape of Perth, Sellers are experiencing a pleasant surprise: their property/s are fetching prices far beyond their initial expectations, thanks to fierce competition among Buyers. This has led to what feels like a wave of "panic buying," where buyers are eagerly bidding against each other to secure their dream property. Now, let's dive into what this means for Sellers who opt to sell their homes free of charge. Consider this scenario: You anticipate selling your property for $500,000, but thanks to the competitive market, you secure a sale at $550,000. That's an additional $50,000 you hadn't accounted for, right? If your selling agent charges, say, 2% commission on the sale price, that amounts to $11,000 + approximately $3,000 for marketing, deducting this from the surplus, you're still left with $36,000!! This surplu...

Until February 2025, my main focus is all about supporting local residents who generously volunteer their time for non-profit organisations. Michele from Parkwood, a fantastic school teacher who's not only shaping young minds but also runs WA Pet Project —helping those juggling choices between keeping their pets or meeting basic needs.  Then we have Karen from Rossmoyne, the dedicated Secretary of Cycling Without Age. She's spent years growing the organisation, bringing the joy of the outdoors to those who might otherwise miss out.  Last but not least, we have Ros from Rossmoyne. Not only does she organise an annual Lady's Garden Party in the past to supporting BCNA, but she's has now decided to contribute to cancer research as a whole and Harry Perkins Cancer 200 will benefit from the funds. When you choose to sell with me within the upcoming 12 months, you'll have the opportunity to support one of these remarkable not-for-profit organisations! If you're consid...

The common misconception about real estate agents is that we are all interchangeable, offering the same level of service and expertise. In reality, the role of a real estate agent is multifaceted, and the distinct qualities and skills each agent brings to the table can significantly impact your experience and outcomes in the property market. From the moment you engage a real estate agent for an appraisal, a comprehensive set of tasks and responsibilities comes into play. Beyond the appraisal, a skilled real estate agent employs strategic marketing techniques to showcase your property to its fullest potential. Communication is a key aspect of our role, as we keep you informed about market changes, feedback from potential buyers, and any adjustments needed to enhance your property's appeal. Ultimately, the misconception that all real estate agents are the same overlooks the unique blend of skills, knowledge, and personalized service that each professional brings to the table.

The Rossmoyne Senior High School Zone has just earned the title of WA's Most In-Demand Suburbs, and this accolade is poised to potentially drive up home prices even further for one of Perth's largest schools. Recent data indicates a growing interest in properties within the school's catchment area, comprising suburbs such as Rossmoyne, Shelley, Riverton (select portion), Willetton (select portion), Bull Creek (select portion), Bateman (select portion), and Brentwood (select portion). The student population at Rossmoyne SHS has experienced a notable increase, rising from 2188 in 2019 to 2606 in 2023. Although slightly behind Willetton SHS with 2710 students in 2023 and Shenton College at 2800 in 2023, Rossmoyne SHS remains a significant player in the education landscape. Notably, Mount Lawley SHS and Willetton SHS continue to hold their positions among the top 3 most searched catchment zones, a trend unchanged over the past three years. In 2023, construction began at Rossmoy...
