Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the average real estate agent commission in Mt Gravatt?
In Mt Gravatt, commission rates typically vary from agent to agent. The exact figure depends on the agent, property type, and level of service. It’s always worth negotiating and comparing local agents before making a decision.
Q: Are real estate agent fees negotiable in Mt Gravatt?
Yes. Most agents are open to negotiation, especially if your property is highly desirable, or you’re considering a tiered commission structure. Asking the right questions and comparing options can save you thousands.
Q: How much does it cost to sell a house in Mt Gravatt?
Beyond commission, you should budget for marketing (photography, online ads, brochures), styling, and conveyancing/legal fees. On average, sellers in Mt Gravatt can spend between $6,000 and $12,000 on these extras.
Q: What are the risks of choosing the cheapest agent?
The lowest-fee agent isn’t always the best choice. An experienced agent with strong negotiation skills may secure a higher sale price that more than offsets their higher commission. Cheap fees can sometimes mean reduced service, limited marketing, or less experience and a lower sale price.
Q: Do I need professional styling or photography for my Mt Gravatt property?
While not mandatory, professional styling and photography can in some cases increase buyer interest and boost sale prices. In suburbs like Mt Gravatt, it might be a worthwhile investment.
Q: What does a vendor advocate do, and should I use one in Mt Gravatt?
A vendor advocate helps sellers choose the right agent, negotiate fair fees, and oversee the sales process. For busy homeowners or those unfamiliar with selling, it provides peace of mind and will improve the overall outcome.

About Mt Gravatt (QLD 4122)
Mount Gravatt is the name of both a major suburb of Brisbane, and a prominent hill in this suburb. The suburb is situated in the south-east of the city and was one of Brisbane's largest. This was before it was divided into Mount Gravatt East, Upper Mount Gravatt and Mount Gravatt South; the last being changed to Wishart in the early 1990s. Mount Gravatt hill was named in 1840 after Lieutenant George Gravatt who was the commander of the Moreton Bay Settlement for two months in 1839. Gravatt was later transferred to India where he died in 1843. Between 1953 and 1969 electric trams ran from the suburb into Brisbane's Central Business District (CBD) along Logan Road. As Mount Gravatt was the end of the line, part of the area was known locally as "The Terminus". Since then public transport has been provided by buses operated by Brisbane Transport and a local bus company the Mount Gravatt Bus Service. The South East Busway is connected by a service from Mount Gravatt Central to the Busway terminal at Griffith University. The people of greater Mount Gravatt are represented by the State parliamentary seats of Mansfield and Greenslopes and the federal seats of Bonner, Griffith and Moreton. The Mount Gravatt Showgrounds are an important centre for cultural and community activities and the site of the annual Mount Gravatt Show, an agricultural fair. The grounds are positioned on Logan Road, opposite the mega-church, Hillsong Brisbane Campus (formerly known as Garden City Christian Church).
