When starting the process of selling a house, people often want to do research first, but it can be a challenge to get reputable expert advice on finding a real estate agent that isn't simplified data crunching.

Furthermore, experience tells us that it's almost impossible to be completely informed about selling a house. Most information that will help you sell (or buy) well and do your due diligence is fragmented across multiple websites, making the task time consuming and often confusing. 

This is often the point at which people revert to old habits of 'leaving it all up to the agent' who popped a flyer in your letter box or was referred by a friend. In ten years of helping vendors, we have found this is the riskiest and least diligent way to choose a real estate agent if your hope is to have a satisfying experience and sell your house for the optimum sale price.

Agent Finder NZ was established in 2009 to solve this exact problem. You might like to read about Our Mission first or see some real estate reviews about us.  

Unlike in other instances where real estate agents are recommended based solely on highest number of sales or sales prices, Agent Finder NZ offers a comprehensive service that establishes the integrity of an agent on a broader range of factors than just the numbers, including how they conduct their business. Agent Finder is the only place where people will get a full real estate vetting service.

A SAFE PLACE FOR INEXPERIENCED HOME SELLERS

If you have had little experience selling a house, you have come to a safe place to help you better understand the whole process from beginning to end.

The sale of what may be your biggest financial asset is not to be gambled with, but many do, often unknowingly due to inexperience.

The real estate world has changed a lot over the years and hundreds of thousands of dollars - your home's value - is at stake.

However, we can step you through the whole process quickly and carefully. We have simplified The Process Of Selling A House from the 'thinking about it' stage to the 'handing over the keys' stage. This 5-step, one page chart centralises the most reputable property resources produced by government, boards, authorities, societies and Agent Finder NZ in one place making selling your house methodical, quick and easy. It empowers you to make properly informed decisions, fast if need be.

It is important to understand the impact of signing agreements, budgets, marketing plans, contracts and of not getting legal advice. You will find this chart very resourceful - share it with your friends if you think it might help them too.

Selling real estate is now a complex process but using vetted real estate agents who meet our criteria can make a big difference to your end result. Being long established and independent of all real estate brands, we will ensure you have a greater advantage over others with competing properties for sale.

"Our agent was everything you said! So friendly, professional and took the time to listen and guide us through the whole process. I will definitely be recommending your service to any friends or colleagues that intend to sell their properties in the future.
