WHY BUY THE BOOK?

Have you ever looked for information about selling your own home privately? Well when the author was wanting to sell his own home privately there wasn't much available and getting good information was difficult. What was around was either very short on detail or didn't explain things in any logical manner.

This professionally written book (over 130 pages) covers selling a home privately in New Zealand and could possibly be the best investment you will ever make. Consider these points...

  • Official statistics indicate we move house every 7 years - that's a lot of commission to pay over a lifetime.
  • Buying the book is a once only investment that you can benefit from repeatedly over time.
  • On a $250,000 house sale, it would take you on average 500 hours extra work (overtime) at $20 per hour to recoup the amount you just paid in real estate agents commission fees.
  • Wouldn't you rather control the sale of your own home.
  • You too can sell your own home privately. You only need three things...

    1. Enthusiasm
    2. The ability to get on with people
    3.
    Knowledge, Know How and Confidence

    If you have the first two, then the book will provide the third.

The author's business expertise and desire to make the process of selling as easy to understand as possible, makes this book very readable and user friendly. Home owners all have a different set of circumstances, skills or business experience so this book caters for people from all walks of life and details all of the processes in a logical step by step fashion.

WHAT DO OTHERS SAY ABOUT THE BOOK?

R.Chapman, Havelock North
