We had a garage sale last weekend where a lady was complimenting on how good our house was. She was generally more interested in our house than the stuff we were selling. We did not think much of it, fast forward today i get a mail from an agent informing me that someone drove around my neighbourhood on the weekend and wanted to buy my house. Apparently he helped them sell their house on another suburb and asked me if i'm interested in selling my house.
I only bought the house last July and is my main residence. I had no intention of selling the house anytime soon but curious to find out how much i can get for it. (Everything has a price right?) Assuming its genuine interest and not some sales tactic
How much extra i can quote for the house?
Will there be CGT if I sell within a year?
Is there anything else i should consider?
Thanks in advance.
"Is there anything else i should consider?"
Yes…This is probably a trick by a real estate agent to get you to sign up with them.
I have seen this locally, shifty methods used by agents to get signatures on contracts.
Smells fishy i reckon
