Common Questions Wellington Sellers Ask Us
We’ve sold over 500 homes across Wellington — and we get asked these questions all the time.
If you're selling, these quick answers will help you plan your next steps.
Can I sell a house that’s not ‘ready’? Absolutely. We can help you prep as you go — or use Harcourts’ List Now, Pay Later option to get professional help upfront.
What do I have to disclose to buyers? Legally, you’re required to disclose any known issues that might affect a buyer’s decision. Think: leaks, unconsented work, meth history, disputes. We’ll help you write it clearly — without oversharing.
Is it worth spending money before I sell? Yes — in the right places. Cleaning, decluttering, minor repairs, and garden tidy-ups often give the best bang for buck. Ask us for a no-pressure prep plan.
Should I price my property or go to tender? In this market? Tender first. It draws out genuine buyer feedback and helps you avoid underpricing or scaring people off. You can always price later if needed.
