Client Profile

- Goal: Purchase an apartment with capital growth potential in the Lower North Shore/Northern Beaches
Situation
Our clients had previously used our services and returned to purchase an investment apartment in the North Shore/Northern Beaches area. With a focus on capital growth, they wanted a 2-3 bedroom apartment with water views. Their busy schedules and a short timeline meant they required:
- Access to off-market and pre-market listings to find properties with strong growth potential
- Expert guidance on prime areas for investment
- Negotiation skills to secure the property at a favourable price within their budget
With only 8 weeks to complete the search, they trusted us to handle the entire process efficiently and effectively.
Challenges
Securing a high-quality investment property in Manly within the couple’s tight timeline came with several unique challenges:
- Limited Timeframe: They needed to purchase within 8 weeks, requiring an efficient search and swift decision-making.
- High Demand for Waterfront Properties: Northern Beaches and Lower North Shore apartments with water views are highly sought after, increasing competition.
- High-Value Investment: As experienced investors, they needed assurance that the property would meet their goals for capital growth.
Our Approach
To meet the clients’ goals and complete the purchase within their timeline, we employed a strategy focused on exclusive access and expert negotiation.
- Utilizing Off-Market Networks
Leveraging our extensive relationships with local agents, we gained access to exclusive off-market and pre-market listings that aligned with the clients’ criteria. This approach reduced competition and allowed the clients to consider high-quality options that weren’t widely available. - Targeted Investment Strategy
We provided insights on high-growth areas in the Northern Beaches, guiding the clients to Manly as an ideal location for capital growth. This expert advice ensured the couple focused on properties with the strongest long-term value. - Tailored Negotiation Approach
After identifying a suitable apartment, we implemented a strategic negotiation plan to secure the property post-auction at a favourable price. This allowed us to avoid intense bidding competition and align the final price with the clients’ budget.
Outcome: A Prime Investment Apartment in Manly
Within the 8-week timeframe, we successfully secured a 2-bedroom apartment in Manly that offered water views and excellent potential for capital growth. The property matched the clients’ goals for location, size, and budget, and our strategic negotiation ensured they acquired it at a great price. The couple appreciated the seamless process, allowing them to secure the ideal investment without any stress.
