How is agent commission calculated?

Usually a percentage of the sale price, sometimes with a sliding scale or a flat fee for higher-value properties, plus advertising. Ask for commission and marketing as separate figures rather than one combined number.

Should I sell by auction or private treaty?

It depends on the property and the market. Ask each agent to justify their recommendation for your specific property, and be sceptical of a recommendation that is identical for every property they list.

Who pays for advertising?

Normally the seller, and it is paid whether the property sells or not. Ask for the itemised marketing budget and which items are optional.

What does a property manager charge?

A management fee as a percentage of rent, plus letting fees and sometimes inspection or tribunal attendance charges. Ask for the full schedule, because the headline percentage is rarely the whole cost.

About real estate in Burnie

Burnie is an industrial north-west coastal city with a deep-water port, set on a hillside above the water. It is one of the wettest, windiest parts of the state, and the weather is a genuine part of life rather than small talk. Homes range from older inner-city stock to hillside builds, and the surrounding country is dairy and forestry, so the city and its rural hinterland are closely connected.
