A GREAT SUCCESS STORY
I was engaged by an interstate buyer to Evaluate
and Negotiate on their behalf on this beautiful property in Flagstaff
Hill.
I initially coordinated with the agent to
inspect the property ensuring I took in every bit of the 460m2 dwelling and
1271m2 allotment.
I created a video for my client and created
a property report, suburb report and comparable sales report.
The agent was quoting under $1.5m for this
property however knowing this current market in this location and basically
working in this market 24/7 I advised my client that we would need to be at or
very close to $1.6m to have any chance.
I had also coordinated Johnny Koritsa from
Leading BPI to do a building and pest inspection if we were successful.
With over 6 offers submitted I was thrilled
to learn that we were successful offering $1.6m. The closest offer was only
$15k under our offer.
The building and pest inspection came back
positive with only minor maintenance issues, and we secured the property.
We then coordinated a conveyancer to handle
the sale to settlement for my client.
Clearly, it pays to engage a Buyer’s Advocate. We know the market!!
