How to choose a selling agent in the Hunter
Picking an agent is one of the highest-leverage decisions when you sell. Here is a straight checklist — no fabricated awards.
Start with fit, not slogans
Ask who will actually run your campaign day-to-day. Prefer a clear answer over marketing fluff.
Questions worth asking
How do you recommend a price range for my suburb? What recent comparable activity informs that view? Who handles opens and buyer follow-up? How will we communicate? What costs should I expect before listing?
Red flags
Guaranteed prices with no context, pressure to sign immediately, vague answers about who works your file, or “#1” claims without verifiable criteria.
Across five councils
Whether you are in Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Cessnock or Port Stephens, the same standards apply: licensed advice, clear process, honest expectations.
