The Secret to Standing Out in a Competitive Market

The Secret to Standing Out in a Competitive Market

Let’s be real — when multiple homes are on the market at once it can feel like you're just another “For Sale” sign on the street. But here’s the truth: Every property has a unique story. The trick is telling it well. At @ Real Estate, we specialise in helping homes stand out, no matter the season or competition. Here’s how we do it — and how you can too.

1. Nail Your First Impression

Buyers are scrolling fast. If your home doesn’t grab attention immediately, you risk being overlooked. That’s where standout photography, on-trend styling and a scroll-stopping online presence come in. We make sure every listing looks its absolute best — because presentation isn’t optional, it’s essential.

2. Know Your Buyer

Every home appeals to a different type of buyer. Families, retirees, investors, first-home buyers — they all have different priorities. We tailor your marketing strategy to target the right audience with the right message — so your property speaks directly to the people most likely to fall in love with it.

3. Tell a Story, Don’t Just List Features

Yes, your home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. But what does that feel like?

We focus on telling a story:

  • Morning sun on the front porch

  • Weekend BBQs in the backyard

  • That quiet office nook where you finally finished your book

Emotion sells homes. We make sure buyers can imagine a life they want to step into.

4. Be Strategic With Timing

A good agent doesn’t just put your home online and hope for the best. We use local data, buyer trends and our team’s experience to launch your property when it has the best chance of being seen — whether that’s around school holidays, a long weekend, or during a window of low competition.

5. Choose an Agent Who Knows the Market Inside-Out

Standing out starts with the team behind you. We know the Capricorn Coast like the back of our hand — and we’re constantly adapting to the market, the buyers and what works right now. When you list with us, you get more than a sign out the front. You get a custom strategy designed to make your property the star of the show.

You only get one chance to make a great first impression — so let’s make it count.
