A quiet thinking session
before you talk to anyone.
Most people start by looking up what their place is worth. That's the wrong place to start. The right place is clarity — on why you're selling, what you actually want, and what good looks like for you.
1
Eighteen sensible questions — seven about your situation, eleven about the place. Takes about three minutes. Most are tap-the-box.
2
Your Seller's Brief, written live. Value-uplift tips specific to your place, a prep plan tied to your timeline, and questions to ask any agent.
3
No pressure. At the end, you choose whether to talk to Scott or keep the brief to yourself.
Question 1 of 18
What's got you thinking about selling?
Pick the one that's closest. We'll narrow in from there.
What kind of change?
What's off about the place?
What's the money reason?
What kind of situation?
What are you most curious about?
Question 2 of 18
What's the plan after?
Rough idea's fine — this is rarely fully worked out at this stage.
Question 3 of 18
How ready is the place itself?
Tap a dot, or drag. Be straight with yourself — this shapes what the brief says.
Question 4 of 18
Who's in this decision with you?
So the brief's useful for everyone involved, not just you.
Question 5 of 18
What's your timeline looking like?
Best guess — we'll tailor the brief around this.
Question 6 of 18
What matters most in how this goes?
Pick two — we'll tailor the brief around these.
Please pick exactly two.
Question 7 of 18
A year from now — what would make you wish you hadn't bothered?
Pick the one that fits best. This helps the brief flag what to watch for.
Phase one complete
Good. Now the place itself.
Eleven quick ones about the house — bedrooms, condition, that kind of thing. This is where Claude gives you specific value-uplift tips: what to refresh, what to leave alone, what will actually pay off for your place.
Question 8 of 18 · The place
How many bedrooms?
The bed-to-bath ratio matters a lot for value — stick with us.
Question 9 of 18 · The place
And bathrooms?
A separate loo counts as a half.
Question 10 of 18 · The place
Roughly how much land?
A rough idea is fine. Don't worry about exact metres.
Question 11 of 18 · The place
Roughly when was it built?
An educated guess is fine. Era tells us what buyers expect.
Question 12 of 18 · The place
How's the kitchen?
Be honest — this is the single biggest buyer decision point in most NZ homes.
Question 13 of 18 · The place
And the main bathroom?
If you have more than one, think about the main one used day-to-day.
Question 14 of 18 · The place
Any mortgage on the place?
Rough answer is fine. This matters because break-fees can change the timing.
Question 15 of 18 · The place
Who's living there right now?
Changes how the prep plan looks.
Question 16 of 18 · The place
Any work done without council consent?
Really common. Not a dealbreaker — but better to know now than when a buyer's lawyer finds it.
Question 17 of 18 · The place
Anything you've already done?
Tick any that apply — or none. We'll skip over these in your brief.
Question 18 of 18 · Last one
Anything specific about your place?
Layout quirks, character bits, subdivision potential, views, outbuildings, things you know need work, anything that might matter.
Where should we send your brief?
We'll email you a copy. That's it — no newsletters, no spam.
Claude is writing your brief.

What now?
Keep the brief and come back to it later, or have a no-pressure chat with Scott. He'll have read your brief before he talks to you — no starting from scratch.
Quick details so Scott can ring back
Scott reads every brief personally and rings when it suits you.
All done.
Your brief is on its way to your email.
