Property Type: 2 bedroom apartment
Property Location: Henderson Road, Alexandria, Inner West, Sydney
Buyer’s Scenario
The clients were first home buyers, buying into a very hot and competitive city fringe market, at a time when auction clearance rates were a record 87%.
The market was extremely difficult to buy in, without paying a premium. The clients came to us, looking for an expert to navigate through the smoke and mirrors and represent them fairly in the buying process.
We worked with the client to understand their requirements and budget which was very tight.
Buyers Agent’s Solution
We were able to secure them a very large 2 bedroom unit, across the road from a park, and remarkably private considering the location. We secured just days prior to Auction, with our pre auction strategy, in order to avoid a highly charged bidding war on the day, which can often lead to over paying. The clients were very happy with the result, as well as the price they paid.
Buyer's Comments
“Frank Russo where to start? You have such a vast and vital knowledge of the property industry. In our short time together (this is how quickly Frank gets things done) Frank secured us our chosen property before it went to auction and we could not be happier!
At the first meeting, Frank took the time to understand our requirements/wish list and it all snowballed from there. Frank came to all the inspections with us and to be able to have firsthand his real-estate and building knowledge gave us a step above the rest. Frank is a highly skilled negotiator - actually scrap that… Frank is by far the best negotiator I have come across.
We chose to use Frank as our buyer’s agent as we understood that the market is infiltrated by people wishing to purchase for all different reasons and as we wanted to buy our place around the city fringes we were up against a lot of competition and we needed his expertise.
We wholeheartedly recommend Frank – his passion for this industry is evident in all that he does and he will do everything in his power to get the best results for you.”
