Are you Selling Your Property?

They say that Spring is the season to sell your home but is that the case this year?

Property buyers seem to be holding off leading up to Christmas in the expectation that the economy will be better in 2025. There is an expectation that interest rates will be coming down.

What does that actually mean?!

I’m always fascinated with the opinions that lots of people have about

  • property prices,
  • values,
  • selling strategies and
  • sales results.

We’re experiencing massive demand and limited supply, particularly in the Newcastle, Hunter and Central Coast but the cost of living and the cost of money is high.

How does that affect whether your property sells or not?

In reality it depends if you really need to sell and why. If you don’t need to sell then you don’t have to sell and as a result you won’t lose anything. This also depends on how long you’ve owned the property and how much it has increased in value since you bought it.

With all these conversations going around and around and real estate agents telling you all sorts of things to get you to sign an agency agreement with them , it’s good know the “facts about selling your property“.

It is an emotional time when you sell such a large asset but it doesn’t need to be. Learn about the actual work required to sell a property so you can separate the facts from the emotions and be confident that you’re doing everything right.

How much capital gains tax will you pay?

If you are selling an investment property you will need to pay capital gains tax and there are formulas for how to work that out.

The most common program property investors use is Microsoft Excel because a spreadsheet can help with complex formulas and calculations.

Calculations can change over time and can depend on interest rates and other financial information and Excel enables you to manage the formulas and variations – even charts to visually show you how you have performed.

Learn how to use Microsoft Excel in a structured course with dozens of exercise files that you can practice with.
