Frequently Asked Questions

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

In Marion, 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 Marion?

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 Marion?

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

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

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

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 Marion (SA 5043)

Marion founded as a rural village in 1838 on the banks of the Sturt River, Marion was found to have rich soil and the population expanded rapidly. Colonel William Light laid out the plan for the village, as he had done with the City of Adelaide itself.

Marion is bordered on the north by Oaklands Road, on the east by Marion Road, on the south by Sturt Road and on the west by a roughly straight line from Finniss Street in the south to The Parade.

The township of Marion was laid out by William Light and B. T. Finniss in 1838, and was (mis)named for Marianne Fisher (1827–1927), daughter of the Resident Commissioner, James Hurtle Fisher.

Vegetables, stone fruits, almonds and grapes were all produced in Marion. Richard Hamilton started the first vineyard in 1838 and his family continues its wine making tradition to this day. By the late 19th century Marion was also home to a number of industries such as a mining and brick making. However, the population at this time was still very small – around 350 people.Gradually the Adelaide sprawl crept up to Marion, and by the 1950s the suburb was well and truly enveloped.
