SELLER ADVOCACY

Home Seller Advocacy – Selling a home, an investment property, an Estate

A Seller’s Advocate, also known as a Vendors Advocate guides you through the selling process.

Selling your home can feel overwhelming, especially without an experienced advocate by your side.

From what you should do before you sell, agents selection, agent management, marketing oversight, guiding you through legislation requirements, contracts, all the way until Settlement.

Here’s how I guide and support you through the entire process—keeping things clear, calm, and in your control:

Preparing Your Home for Sale

I help you make smart, practical choices to get your home ready to sell—whether it’s decluttering, small improvements, or deciding if styling is right for you.

Connecting You with the Right Professionals

I liaise with your legal representative and any other professionals you need, making sure everyone is on the same page from start to finish.

Agent Selection Made Simple.

I guide you through the agent selection process—comparing options, asking the right questions, and ensuring you choose someone aligned with your goals.

Clarity on Pricing, Marketing, and the Process

I help you understand the best pricing strategy, how your home will be marketed, and what to expect along the way—keeping everything on track and in perspective..

Keeping Agents Accountable

I  stay in regular contact with the agent, making sure your property remains their focus—not just another listing on their books.

Overseeing Opens and Inspections

I manage the selling agent’s activities—open homes, private inspections, and follow-ups—so you’re not left wondering what’s going on.

Straightforward Feedback—No Games.

I give you honest, relevant buyer feedback without the usual spin or pressure tactics, so you can make informed decisions.

Support Through Offers and Negotiations (or Auction)

By Your Side Until Settlement

How much does it cost to sell a home?

There are a few costs involved with selling a home, the largest of which is usually real estate fees. When you use a Sellers Advocate, the fee is usually included in the agents selling fee. This is not always the case as some advocates charge an additional fee.

Stamp duty is not payable when you sell a home, only when you buy.

Marketing is a completely separate fee to the selling fee and is usually payable to third parties such as internet portals, photographers etc.
