We launched 37 Powrie Street, Glenfield and the response was instant ⚡

Within just 10 days, we had a pre-auction offer on the table and that sparked a competitive showdown between three determined buyers 🔥🤝 SOLD bang in the middle of our appraisal range, exactly where we said it would land.

That’s what happens when pricing strategy, market knowledge, and buyer management all line up. No guesswork. No overpromising. Just a clear plan executed properly 💥

Thinking of selling? Give me a call or request an appraisal to show you where the market really sits.

We launched 36 Powrie Street to auction with five red-hot developers 🔥 and it delivered above our market expectations. SOLD in a multi-offer! 🤝
That’s the power of momentum. The right prep, the right marketing, and the right pressure at the right time. Boom 💥

Thinking of selling? Forget the noise and scripted hype 💬 - just ask my past clients what it’s like to actually get results.

You'll save time ⏳, money 💰, and cut straight to what works.

But we’re looking to next year, with rate cuts thick and fast. The true test will come in Spring, as the property market thaws out from a cold winter...
