If you're thinking of selling and need some unbiased opinion, this is the podcast for you.

This week on Taking Back Saturday is the first of two episodes around selling your home, and more specifically the juggle of buying and selling in the same market.

Chayse and Sam discuss how to keep control of this process, maximise your sale price and how to avoid rushing or settling for less.

Selling sucks too. Let's talk about it!

This week on Taking Back Saturday, Chayse is joined by Dean Hamilton from LJ Hooker Stafford as he marks 20 years in the real estate game. We rewind to what Dean was like before stepping into the industry, the biggest lessons he’s learned along the way including his unique perspective on off-market sales and marketing.

Dean shares how sellers can work best with him, the negotiation style that gets results, and why he says he “eats stress for breakfast.”

If you’re buying or selling in Brisbane, or just love a peek behind the scenes of the property market, this one’s packed with insight.
