The independent guide to selling your home — from someone with nothing to sell you but the truth.
Most advice about selling your home comes from people who are paid when you sell, or paid by who you choose. Home Straight is different. Ten years in the trade, no commissions, no referral fees — just how it actually works, and the questions worth asking before you list.
Start here: Before You Sell.
Your family home is tax-free in Australia. Uncapped. Which means every dollar of difference in the sale price is a dollar in your pocket — there's no tax cushion softening the cost of leaving money on the table.
Before You Sell walks you through the tax-free profit most Australian sellers don't realise they're leaving behind, and how to keep more of it. Free. Plain-spoken. Doesn't push you toward any decision.
If any of this sounds like you
You're weighing up selling the family home — maybe after a separation, maybe as the house gets bigger than the life in it, maybe on your own for the first time in a long time. It's one of the largest financial decisions you'll make, and almost everyone offering to help has a stake in the outcome.
You don't want to be sold to. You want to understand it well enough to make your own call. That's exactly what Home Straight is for.
Why Home Straight exists
I spent ten years renovating Australian homes and working alongside the women selling theirs — more than a hundred properties. I watched what works and what doesn't from the inside, and I helped a lot of sellers walk away with more than they expected, often just by knowing which questions to ask and which conversations to have first.
I built Home Straight because that knowledge shouldn't only be available to people with an insider in the family. I don't take agent commissions. I don't sell renovation services. I don't have a preferred-supplier list or take referral fees. I don't push you toward auction or private treaty, renovate or list, stay or sell. The choice is yours, because you're the one who has to live with it.
I sell information — education, not advocacy — which means when I tell you how something works, I've got no reason to tell you anything but the truth.
