Secured by Buyers Agent in Sydney
Property Details
The Client’s Situation
Our Clients were looking to buy a family home they could grow into. They were very particular with the location, they needed to be within a short walking distance to express CBD transport, and very close to parks and schools.
They also wanted the maximum size property for their tight budget.
After missing out on several auctions before they engaged us, they definitely didn’t want to have to go through the trauma of that experience again.
They didn’t mind renovating, and knew that this could help them make a better value purchase.
The idea of subdividing part of the property, so they could initially rent out a self- contained section to help pay off their mortgage was also appealing, although they were finding it very difficult to find, within their budget.
Our Strategy as Buyer’s Agent in Sydney
A freestanding solid brick home was located, sitting on a level 535m2 block.
Directly opposite a huge park, and within walking distance to the upcoming light rail and express city buses, the property was definitely in the right spot.
While the property was cosmetically dated, it could easily be modernised to make it a very liveable home.
The property also has the potential to simply section off the rear to allow them to rent out a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom semi with a large backyard.
This would still leave our clients with a large 2 bedroom semi with a courtyard out the front.
Parking was ample in this location also, definitely an added bonus.
We swiftly negotiated the purchase prior to auction, and away from other very interested buyers.
We also negotiated access prior to settlement, so we could also assist our clients plan the renovation, step by step.
This was to minimise the time and cost involved in the renovation work, and also maximise the rent that could be achieved.
