How long should it take to sell my house?
How long should it take to sell my home once it is placed on the market?
This depends on a number of circumstances, but the biggest influencing factor is how much you want to sell it for. The most effective way of selling your property for the best price in the shortest possible time is to submit it to auction. At auction, the buyers have a chance to tell you how much they are prepared to pay, coupled with your protection of the reserve price - the lowest figure you are prepared to sell the property for. The reason an auction can secure a quick sale for you is that the buyers are compelled into action by a certain date or the property may be purchased by somebody else.
