The guide price isn't always the real price

The market is shifting fast. Some agents are underquoting to pull buyers in, while others overquote to win the listing. Either way, the advertised guide is an unreliable starting point.

The system is a mess, and we're watching a large portion of buyers overspend on homes we know could have been bought for less, based on our conversations with the selling agents.

What still needs checking

This brief summarises the property's listing information. The items below haven't been independently verified and should be checked before you make an offer.

What this brief hasn't checked

01Internal floor area: Total liveable m²

02Year built / renovation date: Age and scope of works not confirmed

03Title search: Easements, covenants, restrictions on use

04Building condition: Structural, electrical, plumbing, waterproofing not inspected

05Contract terms: Settlement period, deposit, cooling-off provisions

06Zoning and heritage controls: Knockdown or extension (STCA) depend on local council rules. Check with a Moove Buyers Agent.

07Home Inclusions: Ensure the listing description, the contract and what you see on site all match.

08Suburb stats: Median and clearance figures are Moove estimates; verify via a Moove Buyers Agent

What we'd still check before bidding or making an offer

01Building and pest inspection: commission an independent report before you bid or exchange.

02Contract and title review: have a solicitor check the title, easements, covenants and settlement terms.

03Council planning check: zoning, heritage controls and DA history with the local Council.

04Check inclusions on the contract: Don't assume everything you see at the open is included in the sale. Double check inclusions and any specific exclusions.

05Inspect what the listing doesn't show and compare the building report to what you see on the ground.

06What are they hiding? Notice recent repairs or maintenance? Take a look closer, ask the right questions and determine if there was a problem or it's just a refresh.

Moove fills these gaps through inspection attendance, agent calls, solicitor review, and on-the-ground experience in the suburb.
