Frequently asked questions

How fast can I sell my house in Brisbane?

In Brisbane's active market, a well-priced home with its Form 2 ready can attract strong interest in its first weekends. You then negotiate the settlement date directly with your buyer.

How much less do cash buyers pay?

Cash buyers profit by buying below market value. On a $1,212,562 Brisbane median home, a 5 to 10% discount is roughly $60,600 to $121,300.

What slows a Queensland sale down?

A missing Form 2, non-compliant smoke alarms or a pool certificate that isn't ready. Start all three on day one.

Can I choose a short settlement?

Yes. In a private sale you negotiate the settlement date directly with your buyer.
