James Buy Sell Market News with Off Markets every Monday
TOORAK - Multi-agent works again!
Congratulations to conjunctional agents Andrew Gibbons and Chris Barrett of Marshall White, who competed with other agents and secured the sale with a mini-auction before the official auction, achieving a price above the quoted range in this challenging market. Multi-agent, both on and off-market, is driving success in this tough environment by putting all of us under a little pressure.
We compete every day, buyers compete, and we believe agents should compete as well—not with glossy brochures or even glossier promises, but with real offers.
We have sold over 200 homes through multi-agent, both on and off-market, at auction and via EOI, ranging from $2 million to $22 million. We value, organise, prepare the home, manage the process, report, and stand on the property. We don’t rush! Multi-agent delivers results once again.
