I'm your host, Tim McKnight.

And we're going to be back here tomorrow with even more daily strategies, tactics and insights to help you get the most out of using the property market.

Until next time.

Hello and welcome along to the Property Academy podcast by Ubers Partners.

I'm your host, Stephen Knight.

And this is the show that helps Kiwis go from zero to five investment properties so you can be financially free and stick around for the next 15 minutes because you're going to learn about private sales.

Do they save you $25,000 or could they cost you $90,000?

Should you fire your real estate agent and sell your house yourself?

And when private sales actually work and when they just create problems?

Now, this comes from a listener of the show who said, hey, you guys haven't talked about this in a while.

Should I skip the agent and save on the commission?

Or are real estate agents really worth it?

Now, let's say you do decide to sell your house, yourself, Andrew.

How much money could you save?

Well, let's just think about it from how much an agent charges you, first of all.

Now, forget the GST all the time.

It's an extra 15%.

Oh, that's 4% of the first one, 2%.

Oh, I hate it.

And I mean, that's real money, right?
