Investors choose to sell their investment properties for various reasons – to realise capital, to manage cost of living pressures or perhaps because of constantly changing government legislation.
There are key differences between selling your own home and selling your investment property. The key differences occur before sale, so you need to plan your exit strategy well in advance.
Any property sale needs a good selling strategy. Find an agent that has the appropriate marketing, access to the best buyers and winning negotiation skills. Yet your exit strategy precedes these investigations.
When selling an investment, you must also consider tenants, leases, mortgage commitments, tax implications and maintenance and compliance works.
Many landlords simply engage their property managers to sell their property because they have a pre-existing relationship with the tenant. Often, this is a mis step.
Many agencies excel in managing property yet do not specialise in selling. Rarely do they specialise in selling investment properties. Especially in recent yearswith so much change to legislation, the sale of an investment property can be unlike any other.
