Pre Sale & Settlement Cleaning Services

Pre House Sale Cleaning and Settlement Cleaning Brisbane

First impressions have a lasting effect — and when it comes to selling your home, what buyers see in those first few seconds matters more than almost anything else. A professionally presented home photographs better, shows better, and sells faster.

Nest has been helping Brisbane sellers prepare their homes for market since 2013. We work regularly with local real estate agents and individual sellers to get properties inspection-ready, photo-ready, and presentation-perfect. A fresh set of eyes notices what you’ve stopped seeing — and our pre-sale team knows exactly where to focus.

We offer three flexible options so you stay in control of your budget:

1. Stick to a budget of your choice — we work through your prioritised pre-sale checklist on the day.

2. Quote the job on arrival — we agree on time frame and cost before starting.

3. Book a detailed online estimate in advance — we’ll discuss your checklist, agree on hours and cost, and confirm everything before the day.

We can also coordinate fortnightly maintenance cleans throughout your sales campaign to keep the property looking its best between inspections — and once your home is sold, the same team can come back for a settlement clean and carpet steam clean, leaving everything ready for the new owners.

CREATE YOUR IDEAL PRE SALE CLEANING LIST & CHOOSE FROM SOME OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING:

Your Settlement Cleaning is often required as part of sale, to have your home professionally cleaned and ready for hand over to its new owners. This is not usually as detailed as your Pre Sale Clean as most of your home already had a thorough clean to get it ready for sale.

SETTLEMENT CLEANING LIST CAN INCLUDE:- (you can choose all or create your own personal to do list)

• Thorough dusting throughout, including skirting boards, door frames, all furniture, including behind and under (if furnished)
• Window Cleaning, screens, tracks, and sills –  inside and outside
• Mirrors and Glass throughout
• Washing or Spot Marking of all walls, skirting, and doors.
• Wiping out all cupboards and storage areas
• Thorough cleaning of the bathrooms, de-moulding of showers, glass, clean and dust walls, tiles cleaned, basin and vanity, bathtub and toilet (thorough clean)
• Thorough Clean of kitchen, including inside/ outside of cupboards, oven, range hood, dishwasher, bench tops, fridge, pantry etc
• Thorough Mop and Vacuum of floors
• Clean out of Garage (if required)
• Sweep and clean outdoor areas, balconies, or patios
• Steam Cleaning of all Carpet (Will can help with this!)

We work with you to come up with a check list that will suite your budget and we usually like to offer you the same Pre Sale Cleaners that you had the first time to help with your Settlement Clean as they are already familiar with your home and what they need to do.

Once your home goes on the market, keeping it consistently presentation-ready becomes a full-time job — on top of everything else involved in selling. Open homes, agent inspections, and private viewings can be called at short notice, and a home that looks lived-in rather than presentation-perfect can cost you at the negotiating table.

Nest provides weekly or fortnightly maintenance cleans throughout your sales campaign to keep the property looking its best between inspections. The maintenance clean focuses on the things that visibly deteriorate fastest — bathrooms, kitchen surfaces, floors, and general dust and tidy — so the home is always ready to show at short notice.

Maintenance cleaning is available as a standalone service or as part of a pre-sale package. The same cleaner returns each visit so they know the property and can work quickly and efficiently without needing direction. Pricing is the same as regular cleaning — starting at $98 including GST for two hours at $49 per hour.

PAYMENT OPTIONS:

We accept payment on the day of cleaning either by Cash OR EFT Direct Transfer prior to your cleaners leaving site on the day of cleaning.

NOTE: We do not offer any refunds for services carried out; only a solution.

CANCELATIONS:

If for any reason you choose to cancel your once-off cleaning service, we require a minimum of 48 hours’ notice. Remember, your cleaners have reserved your booking time and day, so if you are wishing to cancel, we need as much notice as possible. If you choose to cancel this service and give us less than the 48 hours’ notice required, you will be charged a minimum cancellation fee of 3 hours x the hourly rate of your service to cover costs for the cleaners, totalling $206.70 including GST.
