Frequently asked questions
Is now a good time to sell in Sydney?
Timing matters less than pricing. Homes priced off recent comparable sales nearby still sell. Ask each agent to show you the sales behind their number.
What commission do Sydney agents charge?
It varies by agent and suburb, and it's negotiable. Commission isn't capped in NSW, so get every fee in writing from more than one agent before you sign.
How do I compare Sydney agents properly?
On evidence: recent comparable sales, fees itemised in writing, a real marketing plan, and whether they're someone you want to work with. Our guide to choosing an agent covers all of it.
