Real estate agents in Dunedin

Use a consistent, evidence-led process to shortlist and compare agents who work in Dunedin. Check the individual licence, relevant local results, complete written costs, proposed campaign and agreement terms before you decide.

Decision principle

Choose the individual agent and complete written proposal — not the highest appraisal, lowest fee or best-known brand in isolation.

How to compare real estate agents in Dunedin

Shortlist two to four agents, then ask each person to explain their recommendation against the same property details and likely sale-price range. A comparable proposal is easier to test than a collection of different sales pitches.

Verify the individual agent on the Real Estate Authority public register
Ask each candidate for a proposal using the same sale-price assumptions
Compare relevant local evidence, not just the number of sales quoted
Record the complete cost and who is responsible for each campaign task

Questions to ask every candidate

Use the answers to understand the agent's evidence, working style and complete proposal — not to award points for confidence alone.

Recent sales that are genuinely comparable with your property
The evidence and assumptions behind the appraisal range
The recommended method of sale and campaign plan
Commission, GST, administration, marketing and optional costs in writing
Who will handle buyer enquiry, feedback, offers and negotiation
Agreement type, duration, cancellation terms and any continuing commission

Put the proposals side by side

Record each agent's evidence, appraisal range, campaign, responsibilities, fees and agreement terms in one worksheet. Keep unknown costs visible and confirm every material promise in writing before signing.
