The difference is experience
Our difference is your advantage
Your property benefits from the attention of our senior staff
We have two senior sales personnel on call anytime to service your sale. Both are highly skilled professional negotiators, committed to achieving the very
best result for your property. Our highly motivated sales team also participate in an incentive-based program to introduce additional buyers which means
our sellers benefit from the widest possible pool of potential buyers.
We’re committed to hard work
Our team works 7 days a week, with open viewings scheduled throughout the week and on weekends to maximise the number of buyers who inspect
your property. The sales professionals responsible for your property are contactable anytime.
Our auctioneers know how to bring down the hammer
Our auctioneers are amongst Melbourne’s most qualified and experienced auctioneers. They are involved in your sale campaign from beginning to end,
which helps them get a feel for the buyers and more importantly, the bidders. They know exactly how to motivate the crowd on auction day, how to
encourage competitive bidding and how to wring every last dollar from purchasers.
Innovative and tailor made marketing solutions
We know how to get the best results from strategic marketing to ensure your marketing dollar goes further. From proactive media placement, express
electronic alerts, auction reminders, online exclusives, extensive web marketing, social media exposure, exclusive property codes and inclusion in our
weekly property magazine, we put your property in front of more eyes, more often.
We have qualified buyers ready to inspect
Our extensive database of qualified buyers across all price ranges and property types helps us quickly identify and match potential buyers to your
property. When your property is listed for sale, all appropriate buyers in our database are notified by email which gets the sale process underway
immediately. Using the combined strength of our network, we can attract more buyers from more locations to your property.

characteristics of the local market and it’s
this experience and commitment from every
member of our team that can help you achieve
your property goals.
We can help you achieve your property goals

confidence that we can achieve an optimal sale
price on your behalf.

We achieve great results
Our reputation for achieving great results for
our sellers is something we’re very proud of.
Every member of our team is committed to
ensuring our track record continues to be one
of the best in the business because we like to
let our results speak for themselves.
We listen to your goals as a seller and make
a thorough assessment of your property and
its likely performance with particular groups
of buyers in the current local market for
properties of a similar size and type. There are
always ‘markets within markets’ and our vast
knowledge of these opportunities will help us
recommend the method of sale that stands
to deliver optimal results for your property,
whether that’s by auction, private sale or
expression of interest.

largest privately owned agencies over the last 16 years. His vast experience and shrewd insight into
the local property market are the cornerstone of his success.

photography and advertising to that demographic and that can quadruple the number of potential
buyers who come through your property during inspections.”
