I sat down with estate agency pro Julia Bartsch…

In this market, great photos and videos are essential to attract buyers online, Julia says. Go pro to showcase your home's features—skip the iPhone pics!

Also, be real about pricing.

Some agents may tell you what you want to hear to get your listing, but that won't help you sell.

Julia keeps it straight, evaluating market data to set the right price.

Sure, we all want top dollar, but overpricing turns off buyers.

Here's what I love: Julia treats potential buyers just as well as sellers.

She takes time to find the right match, knowing happy buyers become future clients down the road.

Her honest, relationship-focused approach has earned tons of referrals in a competitive area.

The bottom line?

Find an agent who puts service over speed.

Julia takes the time to prep listings and counsel sellers through realistic expectations.

That mindset leads to smoother sales in the long run.

In other words…

Be wary of agents who simply tell you what you want to hear about your home's value in order to win your business.

The right agent will level with you about pricing based on market data, recognising that overpricing often leads to homes sitting unsold which Julia is not prepared to do.
