The steps to securing a property when making an offer. By Grant Matterson LJ Hooker Narrabeen Hey everyone! Today I want to talk about something exciting—and honestly, a little nerve-wracking for many buyers—the steps you need to follow when securing a property with an offer. First things first, make sure your finance is ready. Trust me, knowing exactly what you can borrow and having pre-approval from your lender makes the whole process smoother. It also shows the seller you're serious and ready to go! Next, you'll want a reliable conveyancer or solicitor on your team. They'll handle the legal bits, making sure everything checks out with the property, so you're protected every step of the way. When you find that dream home, it's time to make your offer. Now, here's a quick tip: in New South Wales, your offer usually comes with a 5-day cooling-off period. That means once your offer is accepted, you've got five days to do your due diligence—think building inspections, pest inspections, and finalizing your finance. If you're feeling super confident, you might even consider making an unconditional offer. This means you're committed once it's accepted, but it can make your offer very appealing to the seller, especially in competitive markets. And let’s talk deposits. Typically, you'll be asked for either 5% or 10%. A bigger deposit often reassures sellers, but a 5% deposit can still work, particularly if your finance is solid and the seller is comfortable. Remember, every situation is unique, so chat openly with your agent about what's best for you. We're here to guide you, ensuring you're comfortable, confident, and ready to secure that property you've been dreaming of. Hope this helps clear things up.
