Purchased Investment Property Sydney - Buyers Agent Sydney

Property Type: 5 bedroom house

Property Location: West Pennant Hills

Buyer’s Scenario

Our client was looking for a home across a broad area of Sydney, that could accommodate their work-from-home lifestyle, adult children, and provide enough space and privacy on a large block of land. 

 Buyers Agent’s Solution

We shortlisted options from 3 different regions, Inner West to North Shore and narrowed it down to 2 standout properties. 

The favoured option was going to auction, although the client didn’t want to go through a stressful, highly emotional auction process, as they had previously been outbid and missed out on auction day.

We instigated a pre-auction negotiation strategy, to ensure we purchased away from competing bids and secured the property for a price they were thrilled with. 

Buyer’s Comments

"Frank Russo comes with the HIGHEST of recommendations. 

We are totally impressed and owe Frank a granite boulder of gratitude for his kind, calm, patient, professional results-driven tried and tested approach, deep understanding of the Sydney property market, for overseas as well as local buyers. 

Frank offers in-depth builder knowledge, unlimited scope to visit properties, to appraise the best, and is a master negotiator and seasoned strategist. This sets him apart.

Frank is the specialist with the big picture whilst addressing all concerns. His proposals come with the gravity of thought that we must spend our hard earned money wisely, on fundamentals. 

The respect he placed on spending smart, within budget, making a solid investment, thorough due diligence on the property, even comparing property market intelligence across suburb areas, is very reassuring. 

Frank made it his responsibility for protecting us from over paying. I encourage you to always raise your concerns to Frank. To be clear with your instructions when it is crunch time. He is the perfect sounding board.

Once properties are shortlisted, Frank would inspect the properties, capture great videos with commentary, incl any special focus/requests, use his builder & appraiser experience on key aspects that we would not typically even know to look for. Frank is very responsive. 

He respects timeliness, respects our time, always adding to every exchange constructively whilst clearly taking care of all this clients and time for his family. So grateful when he even completed key actions on one of the public holidays.

Above all, Frank is always full of patience, friendly and always makes time to listen. He helped to prioritise visits to maximise all our time and effort and patient enough to help visit properties in different suburbs as we ourselves learnt more and needed to adjust to the various parameters of what types of property and suburbs work and did not work. 

He is full of advice, keeps to the facts, is focused but also continually suggests manoeuvres based on knowing our styles/requirements. 

Frank's in-depth builder knowledge is invaluable. He is able to add so much value to appraising the condition of properties you are about to purchase as well as what improvements and indicative budget is possible. 

We found this 'insightful hope' so helpful, so pragmatic, in that there is never a 'perfect' home. 

He helps explain the Building & Pest Inspection Report and works with property lawyers to generate Notes on Contract of Sale. 

There were certainly up and down times as it absolutely takes several attempts to be successful and Frank's many insightful advise, tell us how it is, with kindness and kept us going.

"Frank you are truly a master negotiator, a seasoned strategist and really worked hard to protect our interests especially in this current market. 

Your videos, your eye for construction details and pricing appraisal and positioning is instrumental to that. 

We cannot thank you enough Frank - you kept us going. You assessed all the key information about vendor situation and all the negotiating carrots to effect a splendid campaign. 

You advised us correctly if we wanted a seat at the negotiating table, when to strike with a death-grip. You helped us secure at our price. Helped us through this emotional roller coaster especially in current market."

Frank knows the market, knows how buildings are constructed, knows the law, knows the entire property purchase process deeply, how to remove roadblocks to negotiate in our favour or how to be successful at an auction. He is a seasoned professional who works with property lawyers to ensure the COS is in our favour.

We are currently overseas and we succeeded in securing our future home at our price in 5 weeks and Frank was instrumental in this. 

Highly highly recommended. I cannot wait to have Frank over to our new home to enjoy the slow charcoal smoked tomahawk & porchetta bbq I will cook him to celebrate our new purchase. 

This man does what he says on the box!"
