Only after serious consideration shoulder owners move ahead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\"><strong>Be prepared: The ultimate home seller\u2019s guide<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 jrJpnl Text__H2-zot5yv-2 StyledH2__CustomizedH2-sc-12hcrzy-0 ktqXPy jQUIib\" data-testid=\"customizedH2\">The Salemme family\u2019s journey<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">For Adam and Lisa Salemme, the owners of a renovated two-bed brick home in the Melbourne suburb of Heidelberg, a growing family prompted the decision to sell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cAs a couple with two girls under three in a two-bedroom house last year, we quickly realised we needed a bigger space, even though we loved our house. Kids accumulate a lot of stuff!,\u201d Salemme says.<\/p>\n<div class=\"styles__ExpandedContentWrapper-sc-1ru2hv7-0 styles__ExpandedContentImageWrapper-sc-1ru2hv7-1 dweNOq delatt\">\n<div class=\"styles__ImageWrapper-sc-17n6uwl-0 iDLoEw size-full wp-image-657323\">\n<picture><source srcset=\"\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, (max-width: 939px) 60vw, (max-width: 1112px) 70vw, 800px\" \/><\/picture>\n <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/sell-my-home\/\">how to sell your home<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"Divider__HR-sogdju-0 hhDXkd styles__ImageDivider-sc-1y47awc-1 hJyEFQ\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">It wasn\u2019t just extra living room, but bedrooms and outdoor space the Salemme family desperately needed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cWe had been thinking about selling for three or four months before our second daughter arrived, but when she did, it really solidified that that was what we needed to do. We thought we could stretch it out a bit more, but it was just too hectic and it forced our hand,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">Not wanting to face the stress of selling, then buying, then moving in quick succession with kids underfoot, the two teachers and parents decided to put renters in their home and buy a new, larger property.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cWe were able to buy a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home very close, only a few minutes away, in the middle of last year and the difference to our lives has been amazing. We absolutely love the area, so we\u2019re very happy where we are.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cWe knew by buying first, we could wait until the time was right to put Bronte Street, which we worked hard to renovate about six years ago, on the market,\u201d Salemme says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">Now, the property is on the market and the couple is taking guidance from Labiris, who has devised a selling strategy which includes going to auction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cThis is the first house we\u2019ve ever sold, so before we signed on with an agent, we made sure we understood what agents were offering, the process they\u2019d go through, what the property might be worth, how they would market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Text__Typography-zot5yv-0 iBYKpG StyledP-cebixd-0 hUfumb\">\u201cWe wanted to do our homework and ensure everything we wanted to know was on the table before we signed something exclusively.
