E-NEWS UPDATE: 25/01/2013

Ok, I know, I know, I've been teasing each week that I'm going to report on a couple of top end deals that I have been working on and I promise I will, but I am still pulling it all together at this stage. That is why I want to say a big thank you to my awesome clients for your patience! You know me, it's all about getting the most air-tight, clean, and fair market price for your property where you are happy and so is the buyer - this can take time to negotiate properly but rest assured I will have exhausted every option to achieve the best possible result and we are nearly there!
 
OPEN HOUSE THIS SATURDAY:
 
16 Island Court, Minyama Waters
Auction on-site 2nd February 2013 at 2pm
Open home this Saturday the 25th of January from 11.00am - 11.45am.
This immaculately kept, character filled home is entry level into one of the most sought after positions in the deep waterfront precinct. Island Court offers exclusivity with parkland in the centre adding to its appeal. The property proudly sits on a large 1041m2 block fanning out to a massive 26.8meter waterfront.
 
MARKET NEWS:
 
33 Adaluma Avenue, Buddina
Congratulations to Dustin and Sally, the proud new owners of this fantastic property and a big thank you to Brad and Nicole for continually appointing me as their exclusive agent. It's great to see another property sold where everyone is happy. Just the way I like it!
 
21 Cypress Court, Minyama Waters
So rapt to see this property SOLD! George and Jan have patiently hung in there waiting for the right buyer to see in the property its true value and potential. It is an incredible position with a massive waterfront and broad water view, not to mention a great character home that I can't wait to see new owners, Jeremy and Paula move in and enjoy with the family. Welcome to the area guys!
 
Well have a terrific weekend everyone and enjoy this long overdue rain. Don't get sick of it too quickly, tuck in with the family and chill-out in front of a good movie - we really need it! Mark

E-NEWS UPDATE: 18/01/2013

Hi all,
 
If you are reading this without clicking on my usual link - I AM IMPRESSED! Goes to show that you have come to know that info about the market and scheduled open homes will be here every Friday. It has been an absolute manic week which is why the bulk e-mail hasn't reached you today. I am currently finalising a couple of deals and have viewed several new properties gearing up for the market so it has been back to back meetings which I hope to have more details for you by the end of next week.
 
OPEN HOUSE THIS WEEKEND:
16 Island Court, Minyama Waters
Auction on-site 2nd February 2013 at 2pm
Open home this Saturday the 19th of January from 11.00am - 11.45am.
This immaculately kept, character filled home is entry level into one of the most sought after positions in the deep waterfront precinct. Island Court offers exclusivity with parkland in the centre adding to its appeal. The property proudly sits on a large 1041m2 block fanning out to a massive 26.8meter waterfront.
 
 
 
 

THE LAST NOTE:
Well it's already mid-January, most of us are full-on back into work if there was ever a break! So before we put holiday dreaming behind us, lets just ease on into the weekend. We live in one of the most beautiful places on earth and although this following clip is a tribute to the Maldives there is no reason why we can't create a little bit of that feeling right here at home! Enjoy! and I hope to see you at the open house. Mark

E-NEWS UPDATE: 11/01/2013

It has been an incredible finish to 2012 and start to 2013 with over $15Million of sales transactions in the last 5 weeks. In addition, I have appraised several new properties that are gearing up for the market and will be marketed under the Auction process - very exciting!
 
I was hoping to be advising of at least 3 properties under contract at the moment however due to this time of year it is taking a little bit longer than usual, so I will have to keep you waiting at least another week for the details.

Hey we made it! Festivus has been and gone, pretty much in the blink of an eye but that doesn't go without saying -
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!
All the best for for a fantastic 2013 and good luck with all those new year resolutions!

To be quite honest it didn't really stop for us and I have been negotiating right throughout the last two weeks with a few big deals already done and currently finalising a couple more. That being said we still managed to squeeze in a bit more pool-time with the kids and catching up with friends - so its all good.

Firstly, I am absolutely thrilled that:
7 Minyama Island, Minyama Waters. Asking $ 7.25 Million is now
SOLD!
 Congratulations to the new owners for securing this magnificent property and landmark position. Both the seller and buyer are both ecstatic with the result and it was an absolute highlight to negotiate such a rare and exclusive property where all parties are excited with the outcome.

E-NEWS UPDATE: 07/12/2012

I have to say I am totally in my element at the moment dealing with quality buyers looking to do solid/professional business and get themselves into the deep waterfront market. Everyday is spent setting up deals, writing up contracts and negotiating - my favourite part! The auctions have been a major contributor to flushing out the potential buyers for each property and creating a deadline for sellers alike who need to get going. It has been an exciting 18months or more with so much more positivity and activity in the market which is great for everyone and the area as a whole.
 
AUCTION TOMORROW:
 
35 Kumbada Court, Minyama Waters
Auction on-site this Saturday the 8th December 2012 at 5pm

MARKET UPDATE:
