A Southern Highlands home prepared for sale, deck and garden in afternoon light

Everything before the sale, in thirty seconds.

From the first call to settlement. One point of contact, one fixed price and a home that goes to market looking its best.

In plain terms

Downsize Detail gets Southern Highlands homes ready to sell. We clear, declutter, book the trades, style and present the property, then manage it all through to settlement. One fixed price, quoted in person. We also run estate and contents sales with no upfront fee. We work across Bowral, Mittagong, Moss Vale, Robertson and the Southern Highlands and take on a few properties at a time. The first step is a free 15 minute video call.

Rural and acreage specialists

Decades of living, decluttered and presented like a magazine.

Rural and acreage properties gather a lifetime of belongings. Sheds, garages, under house storage and paddocks full of the things a long life on the land collects. We are Southern Highlands locals who specialise in clearing and decluttering these properties and presenting them to a professional, styled standard, so buyers see the home and not the years.

A house full of contents

Estates, downsizing and settlement deadlines. We sell what has value, clear the rest and hand back an empty house. No upfront fee.

Decluttered, styled and photo ready.

Before and after. Sheds cleared, anything with value sold, the rest donated to local charities. Nothing goes to landfill unless we agree it with you first. Then the trades, the gardens and the styling. We move at the pace your sale needs and coordinate every step around you.

The work no one warns you about.

Preparing a Southern Highlands property for sale is rarely as simple as listing it. On a rural block the sheds are full, the machinery has to go somewhere, and every corner holds something that was worth keeping once. Trades need to be found and coordinated. Decisions need to be made. And the clock is running toward the first open home. If you are reading this with a date already set and a feeling close to panic, that is exactly the situation we are built for.

Most owners try to take this on themselves, sorting boxes, chasing quotes and wrangling cleaners and gardeners, all while packing up a life. It rarely ends up cheaper. Weekends disappear. Trades quote higher the moment they sense an owner on a deadline. And the garage sale recovers cents on the dollar.

Why I started Downsize Detail

I have sold properties myself, and every time the difference between a good sale and a great one came down to how the home looked on day one. Getting it there meant weekends lost to sheds, trades I had never met and decisions about things with a lifetime attached to them.

Downsize Detail is the service I wished had existed. One person who turns up, project manages the whole thing with you at your pace, and holds the standard while your life is being packed into boxes.

Chris, founder

Selling on a deadline

When the date is already set, we move first.

The owners who call us are usually weeks from photo day, not months. We take on a small number of properties at a time, deliberately, so when yours has a date on it, it is the job we are working on and not one of thirty.

A few properties at a time

We do not run a queue. A limited number of clients means your deadline is never competing with someone else's.

Your date becomes the plan

Photo day, first open home or settlement. We work backwards from it and sequence the clearing, trades and styling to land before it.

One person holding it together

No call centre and no handovers. One dedicated point of contact who knows your property, your agent and your timeline.

How it works

One point of contact the whole way.

No forms and no quotes from photos. It starts with a conversation and a walk through your property, and from there we project manage everything.

The call

Fifteen minutes on a video call

You tell us about the property, where you are with the sale and when it needs to be ready. We tell you honestly whether we can help in the time you have.

The walk through

Every room, shed and corner

We visit, walk the property together, and you receive one fixed price in writing. That price does not move.

The work

Managed to settlement

Clearing, trades, styling and presentation, coordinated with your agent and taken all the way through. One point of contact from start to finish.

The concierge service

Everything between listing and settlement.

One fixed price for the project management and the clearing. Trades, stylists and skips quote and invoice you directly at their listed prices. We take no share and no referral fees.

Your items can pay for the work.

Before anything is thrown away it is sorted. Anything with value is sold and your share comes straight off the bill. If your items outsell the bill, the difference is paid to you.

Clearing

Sheds, garages, under house storage, paddocks and spare rooms sorted, decluttered and cleared. What has value is sold, the rest is donated to local charities. Nothing goes to landfill unless agreed with you.

Trades

Painters, cleaners, gardeners and repairs scoped, booked and checked before sign off. Only trades we trust to a photography standard.

Styling

Working with a property stylist so every room is photo ready and every open home shows the house at its best.

Open homes

Pre open cleaning and presentation checks, and short notice private inspections handled while the campaign runs.

Settlement

Upkeep while under offer, removalists, the pre settlement inspection and a final clean. You reach settlement with nothing left undone.

Real estate agents. We work directly with Southern Highlands agents to have vendor properties cleared, styled and ready before the first open home, and keep you informed at every stage.
