What Do You Want to Avoid Regretting Later in Your House Sale?

What would you hate to regret later when selling your house, and how can you stop that from happening now?

Everyone says hindsight is 20/20. But when it comes to selling your home, you don’t have to wait until after you’ve moved to see clearly.

So, let’s flip the question:

What would you hate to regret later when selling your house, and how can you stop that from happening now?
Maybe it’s a case of… "I wish I’d known more about the property market."

It’s moving fast. Or slow. Or maybe both, depending on where you are. Having someone walk you through what’s actually happening in your postcode, down to your exact street, makes a difference.

Or… "I didn’t realise what I needed to do first!"
Some sellers find out too late that things like sorting paperwork, prepping the house, or finding a conveyancer should have happened weeks before they went to market.

Perhaps… "I thought I’d have more control."
Once the chain kicks off, everything moves, and often you have no say in the pace. If you don’t agree on the deadlines early on, it can feel like you’re being pulled pillar to post.
