Whitford – Geelong Property News:
When it comes to buying, selling, or investing in property, there’s no shortage of advice, some helpful, some not so much. Here at Whitford, we’re setting the record straight on a few common market myths:
Myth 1: You have to wait until spring to sell.
Fact: Homes sell year-round. While spring can be busy, a well-prepared property can attract serious buyers at any time, even in the quieter months.
Myth 2: Renovations always increase your sale price.
Fact: Not all improvements pay off. Strategic updates - think fresh paint, landscaping, and minor styling tweaks. These usually deliver the best return on investment.
Myth 3: The market is too unpredictable right now.
Fact: While property values fluctuate, well-presented homes in desirable areas consistently attract interest. Knowing the local trends and timing your campaign correctly can make all the difference.
Understanding the facts helps you make informed decisions, avoid common pitfalls, and achieve the best results.
