It’s tempting to sign with the agent quoting the highest headline price. Michael Tomadakis cautions Melbourne sellers: inflated appraisals create unrealistic expectations, risk overpricing, and often lead to campaign disappointment. Instead, demand substantive evidence—recent, comparable sales—and a clear marketing plan. Michael’s top priority is transparent communication so vendors trust the process and know they’re not being misled. An agent’s integrity and strategy are worth more than wishful thinking at the start.
