The Brief
Our client had recently returned to Sydney from Germany, and was needing a spacious, character-filled home for her young family. She envisioned a charming period-style house with:
- Original architectural features that preserved its history.
- Separate living areas to create space and privacy.
- Plenty of natural light and a generous land size for a growing family.
The Challenges
- High Demand for Period Homes
Her desire for a heritage-style home in a sought-after area meant we had to move fast and strategically. These properties are rare, and buyers act quickly when they hit the market.
- A Competitive Auction Market
Marrickville is a highly desirable location, with auctions often drawing large crowds and multiple bidders. An experienced buyers agent with auction bidding expertise was required.
- Finding the Right Home in Just Five Weeks
With a limited timeframe, every viewing and decision had to be pre-qualified so that any inspection with the client was fitting in with her requirements
How We Made It Happen
- Targeted Home Search & Exclusive Access
We streamlined the search by:
- Conducting in-depth market research to identify the best properties & pre-qualifying those properties
- Leveraging our network to uncover off-market opportunities before they became widely available.
- Auction Readiness & Winning Strategy
With over 100 people in attendance and six other bidders at auction, preparation was key. We:
- Provided detailed pricing insights to set realistic auction reserve.
- Developed a winning auction strategy, balancing assertiveness and timing with controlling the tempo.
- Securing the Dream Home at Auction
On the big day, we successfully:
- Won a 4-bedroom home on a 400sqm+ block—a rare gem in Marrickville.
- Navigated a tense auction environment and outperformed competing bidders.
Making Home Buying Simple & Stress-Free
We turned what could have been a stressful process into an exciting and rewarding journey, ensuring our client found the perfect home without the hassle.
