Marylene & David had been looking for a while to find their ideal home. Rather than run the risk of making an emotional decision at auction, they engaged me to provide local expert advice and represent them at auction. The property they purchased was in immaculate condition and well positioned. On auction day, despite competition from other bidders, I ensured the property was passed in to me and commenced post auction negotiations and successfully secured the property for fair market value and protected them from exceeding their limits. I know they were delighted and they now have a family home from which to raise a wonderful family.
