What a good home open looks like now

The days of a hundred people at a unit open are behind us for now. Today a good home open in Perth is six to ten genuine buyers. That changes how a property should be shown and how every buyer is followed up.

More chances to inspect

Our opens run for the same length as before, but we hold more of them midweek, so buyers who can’t make a Saturday still see the property.

Every buyer followed up, fast

With fewer buyers, each one matters more. Every buyer who inspects gets a text from us, and a proper follow-up conversation soon after, so we know what they think of the property and the price.

Presentation matters again

When buyers were plentiful, small presentation issues were forgiven. Now they aren’t. Before the first open, we ask sellers to present the property as well as it can be: clean, clear, bright and easy to picture living in.

Price and presentation work together

In a market where buyers have choice, a well-presented property at the right price is the one they come back for.
