Choosing the right agent the property to check how they deal with buyers and then wait and see who rings you after the open home. If the salesperson doesn’t deal professionally with you as a buyer and follow up how will they be able to get the best price from a buyer for your property? Have a look at their testimonials from people who have done business with them, and ring them or talk to family and friends about their experiences and recommendations.
Jill Quaid Real Estate salespeople are the experts in selling properties. Here are some of my tips to help you choose the right salesperson for your property. Visit salespeople at Open Homes to check their professionalism. Have a look at their flyers and advertising and ask questions about

Remember, it is not you or the salesperson who decides what a property is worth, it is the buyer. Understand your online advertising options as research shows 87% of people search for properties to buy on the internet. Make sure you understand the different online options available and the cost to you. Avoid choosing an agent based only on their commission rate. Consider the agents experience, local area knowledge and the quality of the proposed advertising schedule – to be confident that your property is seen by the largest number of potential buyers to maximize the selling price. Take the time to understand the different options available to you and which
challenge. Ask the salesperson how often you will receive feedback during the marketing period, and what improvements can be made to the property to improve the property’s value. An experienced salesperson will have ideas about how to improve your property to ensure a successful sale. They will be honest about any problems they see, Check the small print and have the salesperson go through all the disclosures and warranties on the listing agreement before signing. It is your responsibility to know what you are signing and if you are unsure you need to take legal advice. You

of professionalism, experience and drive can be challenging in an industry where skills vary so widely. Your real estate salesperson should be well presented, a clear

Fresh from Edinburgh and Melbourne Fringe, The Bakery and Cuba Creative present Miss Fletcher Sings the Blues; on tour to Oamaru, Ashburton, Westport and Nelson in November 2014. A well-meaning but slightly unhinged music teacher treats an unwitting geography class to a surprise music lesson. She tries to inspire a worldly opinion (her worldly opinion) on a class of unsuspecting developing young men. Tackling the big issues of the world, her songs such as "Key Changes for Africa", "Puberty Express" and "Moustache Paradise" make for a hilarious off-kilter performance that brings to mind the likes of Tim Minchin and Flight of the Conchords. Actress Hayley Sproull is Wellington's latest, greatest comedy talent, winner of Best Newcomer at the 2012 New Zealand International Comedy Festival, Chapman Tripp Theatre Awards Most Promising Newcomer 2013 and the People’s Choice Award NZ Fringe 2014. Miss Fletcher Sings the Blues, combines the classical piano training and observational humour of an emerging, valiant comedian. Throughout the show, Miss Fletcher
employs her musical ability and relentless pursuit for connection to dig herself out of a lot of self-created holes; and the holes are deep. As she continues to obliviously tread through topics such as racism, homosexuality and Zambia, her inappropriate escapades lead to a passionate crescendo, where the term ‘do as I say, not as I do’ could never be more fitting. CAUTION: Contains questionable teaching methods, naughty words and no actual blues. “A superb musical comedy…‘with educational benefits’. You’ll Love it!” The SUN “Miss Fletcher Sings the Blues is a brilliantly crafted, thoroughly entertaining and unashamedly tongue-in-cheek show with quite a unique premise that just works.” Broadway Baby “Sproull delivers with a wit and a sense of the ridiculous which is verbal gold” Waikato Times “Original, innovative and very funny... not to be missed” The Dominion Post www.cubacreative.co.nz/missfletcher-sings-the-blues www. facebook.com/hayleysproullcomedy
