In this episode, we unravel the hidden costs associated with selling a house. We don't just talk about the real estate agent's fees but dig deep into all the costs you'll face when putting a property on the market. We start with the unavoidable costs related to photos, videos, and marketing, which also includes the fee to list the property on TradeMe. We then discuss how much it typically costs and when you need to pay for these services. Staging your house is not mandatory, but is it recommended? We weigh in on the pros and cons and discuss the influence it has on the final selling price. We also share the typical costs, factors that can make it more expensive, and when these payments are generally due. Other significant expenses to consider are a builder's report and potential repair costs. We explain why it's beneficial to invest in a builder's report and discuss an instance where a property needed substantial maintenance before being listed. Finally, we sum up all the costs, giving you an idea of what the total cost could be when selling your house, apart from the agent's commission.
