Value Methodology

One of the methods used by our property specialists is a comparative market analysis. This method is used to determine accurate market values by comparing other similar properties that have recently sold in your area.

This analysis, of similar size properties sold over the last three to six months, as well as determining the average square metre price of other properties in your area, provides our property specialist with an accurate value price base.

Speak to your Just Imagine Properties specialist to determine a reasonable asking price for your property.

Free Bank Valuation

As part of our value added service Just Imagine Properties also offers to arrange a Free Bank Valuation for your home.

A bank valuation will then be used in conjunction with our property specialist knowledge of the area to determine an accurate and market related selling price for your property.

The bank valuation will also assist in determining what bond amount can be expected by a prospective non-cash buyer.

A good indication is then obtained of how reachable the asking price will be in terms of this expected bond amount.

The X-Factor

Make your property attractive. A good chef will tell you that people first eat with their eyes before actually tasing the food. The same is true when shopping for a property, if a house looks clean and tidy, uncluttered and boasts tasteful modern finishes and decor, it will have greater appeal to a much wider audience of potential buyers.

This X-Factor appeal will ensure that your property can sell faster and at a higher asking price compared to other properties in the same area without the same unique commercial appeal.

Speak to your Just Imagine Properties specialist to determine what are the attributes of your property that can be enhanced or amplified.

Get The Price Just Right

Success lies in getting the current market pricing just right.

So how do we determine real market value? Real market value refers to what you could realistically expect a buyer to pay for your property taking in account all the current market influences.

The most accurate and effortless method of establishing the market value of your home is to contact your Just Imagine Properties specialist to evaluate your property and arrange a Free Bank Valuation.

Show My House

An experienced professional will tell you to take all factors into consideration when showing your property to prospec- tive buyers. These include the condition, size, elevation, view, garden, kitchen, bathrooms, security features, cosmetic updates (such as the flooring, fireplaces, light fixtures and special features), as well as overall aesthetic appeal of your property.

When showing your property it is recommend to keep the house furnished if possible, but not cluttered and untidy. It is very difficult for a potential buyer to estimate the size or visualise living in your property when empty. Our property specialist can give you good advice and guidance on decorating to make the property more attractive for show days.

Paying attention to both the value and marketability of your property will make a substantial difference in getting good return on your investment.

Neighbourhood Property Specialists

Our Just Imagine Properties specialists know their suburbs intimately.

We are not only area-specific property market specialists, but also tuned into general property trends influencing the areas in which we serve.

In short, our property specialist know what is currently selling and what properties are not, who the buyers are and for how much the property was purchased. Speak to us to get a good idea where the area is heading in the short, medium and long term.

To Renovate Or Not

Will the buyer be willing to pay more? When renovating with the view of selling, careful consideration should be taken to what the market is willing to pay for your property on completion. The value of your property is in fact determined by personal preferences and of course supply and demand at the specific time.

Value is not necessarily increased by simply changing the accommodation without determining first if the renovations or alterations are going to be worthwhile. For example, installing a new kitchen will rarely increase the value of the property in terms of return on investment. Although being beneficial to yourself while staying in the property, improving the property beyond the area norm could potentially limit the marketability.

Speak to us to ensure that you don’t step into the trap of over capitalisation.
