Case #1 – Inner West Homebuyer
Location: Inner West
Buyer type: Homebuyer
The Brief:
A couple who intended to buy their first home within a 30-minute drive of the city. The property had to be within a 15-minute walk to the Harbour, which their number one requirement. They wanted a house that has at least three bedrooms and parking.
Clients’ Comments:
My wife and I both work full-time and have been saving for our first home for years. When COVID struck, we were finally able to save our deposit. We debated whether or not to postpone our ambition of purchasing our first house during this period of uncertainty. We opted to hire a buyer’s agent at this point. We worked with a real estate broker and found him to be a steady, calm presence. He walked us through the entire process, from defining our search criteria to shortlisting options and finally exchanging information (all of which happened within a month). He gave us competent advice, asked the proper questions, and immediately figured out what we were looking for.
He was patient with us, showing us numerous types of homes in various places while also moderating our expectations. He discovered the home we desired as we revised our concept and negotiated everything to our satisfaction. We found him to be responsive and interesting, as well as a wealth of real estate knowledge. Nick is someone I would suggest to other property newbies like us!
Buyers Agent’s Comments:
Working with the clients made their property requirements a lot more attainable because they were open to new ideas and were realistic. Our communication were really efficient and helpful. They believed that working with me was the best method to buy their first home because they are very busy and don’t have enough time and we are property professionals with market experience who can help them find the greatest property.
I presented them with a Riverview property after looking at a few properties in the Inner West, mainly around the Balmain area. They hadn’t considered this site before, but they liked the land and the fact that they could stroll to a section of the harbour from it. The property also offered the possibility of future expansion, which contributed to its value. I was able to negotiate a really reasonable deal for them, which was at the very bottom of their budget range. They informed me six months later that the bank’s revaluation was $150,000 higher than the purchase price.
Case #2 – Northern Beaches Homebuyer
Location: Northern Beaches
Buyer type: Homebuyer
Client’s Comments:
The buyer agent was recommended to us. With the current state of the market in Sydney, we were encouraged to use a buyer agent, and he was highly recommended. We were not disappointed; He was competent, knew a lot about the North Shore / Northern Beaches market, and had a lot of connections with vendors’ agents all over the beaches. His plan was crucial to us getting the house we did, and it was also a lot of fun. I would really suggest it!
Property Agent’s Comments:
This couple and their three children were looking for a property in the Northern Beaches for their family. They were limited in their choices this year due to the market’s rise, but their flexibility and desire to renovate over time allowed them to find a fantastic house with great potential and, most significantly, in a great location, close to stores, schools, and parks. It was a pleasure assisting such a nice couple in achieving a fantastic result in obtaining a property that will offer them joy for many years.
