Facing an estate, a downsize or a settlement deadline? Estate & Contents Sales →
Most vendors are surprised by at least one of their scores. The Sell For More Scorecard takes 2 minutes to find out where you stand.
Two Moments. One Standard.
Before the Sale
Clearance, trades and presentation, personally managed to a fixed price, so the property goes to market at its best.
The Free Scorecard →After the Sale & Estates
Estates, downsizing and settlement deadlines. We sell what has value, clear the rest, and hand back an empty house. No upfront fee.
Estate & Contents Sales →Preparing a Southern Highlands property for sale is rarely as simple as listing it. Decades of belongings accumulate in garages, sheds, and under-house storage. Trades need to be coordinated. Decisions need to be made. And the clock is ticking toward an open home.
Most homeowners try to take this on themselves, sorting boxes, chasing quotes, wrangling cleaners and gardeners, and trying to figure out what's worth keeping. All while packing up a life and moving forward.
It rarely ends up cheaper. Three hidden costs most people don't see coming:
We take it all off your plate end-to-end, personally managed by Chris, coordinated directly with your listing agent, and offset with a resale credit on anything of value we find along the way.
I've sold multiple properties myself, and every single time, the difference between a good sale and a great one came down to how the home was presented on day one.
What I also learned is that getting a property properly ready for market is brutal work to coordinate on your own. You're managing trades you've never met, making decisions about items with sentimental weight, and trying to hold a standard of presentation while your life is being packed into boxes.
I started Downsize Detail because I wanted the service I wished had existed when I was the one selling. One point of contact. A founder who actually shows up. A process that respects both the property and the person living in it. And a commitment, written into our method, that nothing of value gets thrown away without being accounted for.
That commitment is baked into how we work. It's the reason Southern Highlands homeowners send their friends to us.
From the first clearance through to settlement day, Chris manages everything personally. I also work closely with your agent so every decision supports the best possible result for your sale.
Property Clearance
Garage, shed, under-house storage, and spare rooms sorted, cleared, and left presentation-ready. Skips arranged and filled for you and billed straight to you at the skip company's listed prices, no weekends lost, no negotiating with strangers online. Our price is fixed, no surprises.
Trade Coordination
Painters, tilers, cleaners, and gardeners scoped, booked, and supervised. They quote and invoice you directly, so you always see their prices, and we take no share and no referral fees. We work only with trades we trust to deliver to a photography and open home standard.
Open Home Preparation
Pre-open cleaning, styling checks, and ongoing support throughout your campaign. Every buyer walks into a property that looks its best, every single time.
Through to Settlement
After the open homes: short notice private inspections, ongoing upkeep while under offer, removalist management, moving admin, a pre-settlement inspection, and a final clean. You hand over the keys with nothing left undone.
Phone, video, or in person.
Personalised delivery, end-to-end.
On time. Reliable. Trusted.
Two ways to start
Downsize Detail works directly with Southern Highlands agents to prepare vendor properties before the first open home. Clearance, trade coordination, presentation, and post-settlement. All managed personally by Chris so nothing falls back on you or your vendor.
One point of contact. Fixed price. The agent is kept informed at every stage.
