Hi all, We're about to place a 4 bedroom home on the market and the agent has told us he will do 2.35% instead of 2.5%, although what threw me a little was that he'd scrubbed out the "Includes GST" part and then written the figure into another section "GST charge" which is around $900
I don't want to cause a scene but feel this is just a tadd unreasonable. What do you guys think? I'm pretty new to selling
On another note I'd like to tell you why we're doing this.
We've been investing for around 10 years now and working (AND stressing) very hard for at least that amount of time. It's slowly taken a physical and emotional toll on me (my back is now in trouble and constantly aches)
So we've worked hard to get to where we are now building the portfolio that we think it's time to enjoy some of the fruits of our labour by selling up over consecutive tax years and paying off alot of the mortgage. This will allow me to reach the goal of almost financial freedom and I can relax and take some time off. We've only ever used any of our equity to purchase more property, nothing other than that.
We will replenish with another higher priced property, and even a commercial for now but that's later. Need to put more though into that.
