Buyer's agent and licensed real estate agent Amy Lunardi and Chief Investment Officer Owen Rask are back to explain exactly how, what, why and when to sell a property. Whether you're upgrading, 'side-grading' or downgrading a property, selling is often the forgotten but extremely uncertain part of the property investing and owning process. So how do you do it? Do you sell your current property first? Do you buy a property first? Do you pay for styling? How do you find a real estate agent? Is it worth paying for online advertising? How much does it cost? Should I get more than 3 real estates' opinions? Is selling in spring a bad idea? All this and more is answered by Amy Lunardi and Owen Rask in this episode of The Australian Property Podcast.📚 Enjoyed this episode?
