2014 Off to a Roaring Start

February 8, 2014 / General Observations, Market Trend, Postings Elsewhere, Useful Tips

There are few topics where property analysts and media commentators agree. However, there is no dispute that 2013 was a blistering year for property.

The Challenges of Buying and Selling Premium Properties

September 3, 2012 / General Observations, Market Trend, Useful Tips, Advice to Sellers

There is a common misperception amongst many property buyers that the higher the budget, the easier it is to find a property. What I have learnt from years of being a Buyers’ Agent is that no one’s budget is ever enough. Those with a budget of $800,000 wish they had $850,000. Likewise, those with $4 million seem […]

Spring property market: Fears, Facts and Focus

September 20, 2011 / General Observations, Market Trend, Useful Tips, Advice to Sellers

With so many contradictions in the media about the state of the property market, it can be confusing to filter facts from fears. One day the market is close to collapse.

Over 3 million viewers tuned in on Sunday night to watch the finale of The Block 2011, a renovation show pitting four couples against one another. Prior to the finale, Josh and Jenna seemed to be the favourites to win with 37 Cameron Street. And when they got to choose to be first off the […]

Are you getting the real deal?

May 5, 2011 / General Observations, Market Trend, Useful Tips

We recently came across an e-newsletter from an agent who works at a reputable, nation-wide real estate franchise.

The agency claims to offer the services of their 2 full time home finders: “All they do is […]

    What Our Clients Say

    • Henny and Oliver moved quickly to help us to secure the property at a great price. This was before the house has even been listed for sale. I have no doubt that it would have sold for a much higher price had it been put on the market.

      E. Yeo

      Read More

      C. Chu & A. Siu

      Read More

      Y. Cho & D. Wong

      Read More
    • We have bought three other properties on our own before. However, compared to our past purchase experiences, this time it was so much easier.
