Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the average real estate agent commission in The Oaks?

In The Oaks, 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 The Oaks?

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 The Oaks?

Beyond commission, you should budget for marketing (photography, online ads, brochures), styling, and conveyancing/legal fees. On average, sellers in The Oaks 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 The Oaks property?

While not mandatory, professional styling and photography can in some cases increase buyer interest and boost sale prices. In suburbs like The Oaks, it might be a worthwhile investment.

Q: What does a vendor advocate do, and should I use one in The Oaks?

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 The Oaks (NSW 2570)

The Oaks is located 76 kilometres (47 mi) south-west of Sydney via the Hume Highway, 13 kilometres (8 mi) west of Camden and 290m above sea-level. Despite a long-standing economic dependence upon coal mining and despite the urban development inspired by its proximity to Sydney, The Oaks has essentially remained an attractive semi-rural district.

Pre European history The area was once part of the traditional land of the Tharawal people prior to colonisation, whose territory stretched from Botany Bay in Sydney down to Jervis Bay on the south coast, and into Burragorang in the ranges. The area was fiercely contested between the Tharawal and the Europeans, particularly between 1812 and 1816, culminating in a massacre at Cataract Gorge. A group of the Gandangara people near Appin were caught by Macquarie's troops while they were sleeping. At least fourteen Aboriginal men, women and children were killed. On Macquarie's orders, the bodies of two of the men were hung in trees as a warning to others. Introduction of European diseases had a great effect on the Aborigines of the area. The Tharawal and the Gandangara eventually moved into the area around The Oaks. Members of both tribes ended up working for the Europeans in the 1920s when they were placed on reserves and their children forcibly removed until the practice ceased in the 1960s. Post European history The Oaks was called simply "Oaks" until 1895. An expedition was undertaken in 1795 which included Governor Hunter and George Bass, due to the sighting of some cows which had strayed from the Government Farm at Farm Cove. The herd had increased from 8 to around 40 and the area they were found in was then named "Cow Pasture Plains". Until 1822, it was forbidden to settle in the region although it was noted as being an excellent area for cultivation as a succession of governors sought to protect the herd from exploitation or molestation as an investment in the colony's future. John Warby was appointed Superintendent of Wild Cattle at the Cowpastures in 1803 and by 1806 was also a Constable in the district; acted as a guide on a number of exploring parties and expeditions. Warby was the first to explore the Oaks region. A botanist by the name George Caley explored the area between 1802 and 1804. He penned the name "The Oaks" due the predominance of She-oaks in the area. In 1815 Governor Macquarie established cattle yards at "The Oaks", Cawdor (half way between Camden and Picton), and Brownlow Hill and later at Stonequarry Creek (Picton) to which wild cattle were taken to be reclaimed for the government herds. On 7 July 1822, the Oaks station was relinquished to Major Henry Colden Antill. Many of the cattle were later moved to Bathurst. The stations were closed in 1826. The district was surveyed between 1822 and 1827 as land grants were extended to the area. The first was issued in 1823 to John Wild a former Lieutenant and Adjutant of the 48th Regiment, who had been the superintendent of Government Stock on the cattle station at Cawdor and T.C. Harrington. Wild established a farm on the "Vanderville"' estate and built a homestead in the late 1820s with the help of Aboriginal and convict labour. Wild primarily raised cattle but he also ran sheep and pigs, grew wheat and tobacco, and established a dairy. In October 1822 William Fisher was acting Constable at "The Oaks". On 7 October he was recommended for position of Chief Constable and Poundkeeper at Cawdor. On 7 August 1823, he was dismissed from this position, but later took up the position of District Constable, County of Argyle in August 1824. St. Mathews Anglican Church c.1838/39, was built at The Oaks by the families of John Wild of Vanderville and Major Russell of Orthez for their servants and families, it is constructed of local timber. The church still stands today, but has been renovated twice to preserve it. The church cemetery contains the headstone of Henry Kable Jr, son of Henry Kable and other caskets which were removed from Burragorang Valley before it was flooded for the building of Warragamba Dam.
