This Week @ Shelter by the Bay

Grenville Street Hampton SOLD off-market
107 Roslyn St Brighton Sam Mercuri 0403 525 808
Bright Street Brighton East Auction Melina Scriva 0419 348 606

When we listed the home, our clients interviewed several agents before deciding to trust Zali and Shelter by the Bay. Despite their nervousness, we chose not to go with a low quote and hope the auction process would sell the home. We didn’t take that path because you need multiple buyers to push the price beyond the quote to achieve a good result.

 

Although it was a wonderful home, the location posed a challenge, and we believed relying on multiple buyers—at any quote—was a risk. If the auction failed after three weeks, the property could become stale, like the 42% of homes still unsold three months later, now weighed down by a public perception issue.

 

Instead, we ran an off-market campaign and invited other agents to bring buyers. In the end, Zali Reynolds (ranked 5th best agent in Victoria, male or female, and the top agent not in a corporate office) sold the home to the only repeat buyer, surpassing price indications given by other agents, at the level our clients wanted and were prepared to wait for.

 

The buyer was brought in through Zali’s social media campaign. We didn’t advertise on significant listing sites—only on Marketnews. There were quiet moments and tough negotiations off-market, but ultimately, we achieved a successful sale by matching the home, market conditions, and the right sales process to what our client wanted.

 

The buyers have secured a beautifully renovated home on a north-facing block.

 

Yes, homes can sell well at auction or via an expression of interest (EOI), if priced to attract.

 

The key questions are: What’s best for your home in this market, and what are your goals regarding price?

 

In this case, Zali wrote the movie script that aligned with our clients’ wishes.

Why This Home Stands Out

This home offers an unbeatable combination of lifestyle, location, and investment potential, making it an ideal choice for families.

 

Convenient Location

The close proximity to the train station provides fast access to top schools like Caulfield Grammar and Star of the Sea, as well as the MCG and CBD. You are already within walking distance of BGS, Firbank and Brighton Primary. This convenience means no daily car trips to drop kids at the station, offering a stress-free lifestyle for parents and independence for children.

 

Nearby Amenities

Located near Bay Street, you’ll find everything you need within walking distance, including restaurants, shops like Coles and Chemist Warehouse, and fitness facilities such as Pilates studios and gyms. This makes for an easy and convenient lifestyle.

 

Resort-Style Living

This home offers resort-like amenities with a pool, spa, steam room, gym, and tennis court, making it a rare find that enhances your lifestyle.

 

Family Security

Children’s bedrooms are located upstairs, and the property is equipped with a high front fence, security cameras, and an alarm system, ensuring a safe and secure environment for your family.

 

Solid Investment

With 1800 sqm of land in Brighton, this property is a significant investment that will appreciate over time. Large land holdings like this are becoming increasingly rare, especially for families seeking space and a quality lifestyle. Comparable homes in different locations are often priced at a higher premium, possibly making this an out-of-reach opportunity elsewhere.
