Tips for Selling in Como
Presentation
Como buyers expect well-presented homes. Declutter, deep clean, and consider professional styling. First impressions at the front door and online listing photos drive enquiry volume — invest in professional photography.
Timing
Spring and early autumn are traditionally the strongest selling seasons in Perth. However, well-priced properties in Como attract buyer interest year-round due to the suburb's strong desirability. List when your home is ready, not when the calendar says so.
Pricing Strategy
Overpricing is the most common mistake sellers make. In Como, buyers are well-informed and will compare your property to recent sales in the area. A realistic price from day one generates more enquiries, more competition, and ultimately a better result than starting high and reducing.
Know Your Buyer
Understand what draws buyers to Como — lifestyle, schools, proximity to amenities — and make sure your marketing highlights those features. Buyers in this suburb pay for location and lifestyle, so let your listing tell that story.
