“This was a very quick sale with the buyers emotionally attached from the very first inspection.
The Price: As always, at the very commencement of a campaign, it is hard to gauge whether an offer at the get go is going to be the best. In this case, the offer was above expectations and I then continued to negotiate to achieve the final sale price of $2,100,000.
The Sellers: I initially appraised this home in 2016 when the owners were toying with the idea of selling. This time around, we discussed how to fully prepare it for sale. I advised them on what needed to be done to fully maximise its appeal in the market. They changed the kitchen splashback, re-carpeted, re-painted and re-turfed some of the bare lawns. They removed large furniture from rooms and stored the table tennis table, thus making everything appear larger, streamlined and created flow. They listened to my advice and it made a huge difference in price.
The Buyers: I had shown the buyers a house in Newport about three years ago and are on our database. They came up as a buyer match, along with many others, and I sent a “New Listing” out via email and text.”
It was combination of factors that created this great result, and congratulations to all involved.
The property:
230 Tallebudgera Connection Road, Tallebudgera, QLD

Property launched, went under contract and sold unconditionally within 10 days

The Property:This particular property is within walking distance to the corner shops, the local primary school and parklands, all within an acreage community, so it’s predominantly acreage homes. This home is on 1414m2 and within walking distance to everything central in that community.
There were approximately 10 inspections within 48 hours of this home going live.
The Buyers: The buyers of this home had recently moved from Sydney and were renting, waiting for the right home to appear. Their children attend the local primary school and when this home came on to the market, all the pieces fell into place.
These type of homes are quite rare in this area, most are larger acreages which are at a higher price point, and also require more maintenance. This was really the perfect home for this family.
