Selling your home: five things to do before the first viewing
Get a valuation so you price from facts, not hopes. An overpriced home sits on the market and often ends up selling for less.
Find your title deed, your latest rates account and, for sectional title, your levy statement. The attorney will ask for them on day one.
Know which certificates you need. An electrical certificate of compliance is always required, and others depend on the property.
Tidy, repair what is cheap to repair, and have the garden looking its best for photographs.
Choose an agent who will tell you the truth about price, and put the mandate in writing.
