The Queensland property market is typically more cyclical than other Australian markets, influenced by changing trends in tourism, mining and migration.
While modest gains were recorded in 2017, conditions tend to vary across the state, with many regional areas still suffering a post-mining boom hangover. However, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast are expected to experience a modest upturn, with young buyers seeking to take advantage of median house and unit prices while they last under $500k.
The cost of hiring an agent is just one of several factors to consider when comparing real estate agents in your local area. As well as finding an agent who charges competitive fees, you need to find one who has a good grasp of the local economy as well.
the agent must show a strong history of successful property sales, particularly in the last 12 months.
as well as the agent, you need to look at the agency they belong to, and whether the agency has a good track record of sales in your area.
it's imperative they have a thorough understanding of the local market. This includes average house prices, current demand, buyer demographics, and average turnaround times.
this can differ between agents, so you need to choose an agent who has a strategy in tune with your own way of thinking about your property
if the agent has sold properties similar to yours, they will have a much better idea of how to market and sell your property successfully.
if the agent isn't quietly confident in what they do, they're not likely to inspire confidence in potential buyers either.
there's no better recommendation than a satisfied customer, so they need to have genuine testimonials from previous clients (such as those available on roomr).
real estate is about people, so they need to be a people person, able to engage with and relate to potential buyers on their own level.
