Cost of Selling Your Home

Filed under: Sell My Home

The biggest cost when selling your home is your agent’s commission. Agent’s commissions are not set by law.

It is important to have an understanding of who is responsible for the payment of advertising, signboards and brochures. If you are selling by auction you may also wish to clarify if there is an auctioneer’s fee.

Other costs to consider are:

  • Preparing your home for sale
  • Legal costs – solicitor or conveyancer (can range from $500 – $1800)
  • Disbursement of documents (usually about $200)
  • Survey reports (usually about $500)
  • Discharge of mortgage (usually about $350)
  • Bank fees
  • Removalists
