The client was moving from the other side of the city, and wanted to ‘wake up in the morning and see the beach from their bedroom window’. They found that these types of properties were in very high demand, and were selling as soon as they hit the market. They needed someone who could find and secure these types of properties before the crowd knew about them.
“After a recent separation from my wife, I decided to look for a place to buy in Bondi. Whilst still running a business & finalising details with my wife, life was pretty hectic! I noticed many of the properties I liked were selling before Auction & I simply wasn't able to keep up! On one day I attended over 15 inspections! I spoke to numerous agents who often left messages as I was so busy, often they would send me info on properties well outside of my search criteria, often they wouldn't even take me seriously enough to return emails, sms’s, phone calls etc.
Then one day I got a message from Frank. Naturally I was sceptical at first, How can he save me money? What's his incentive to do this? How can he find the right property better than I could do myself? I recall we exchanged several emails & I had many more questions than above, Frank answered every one of them and I found myself beginning to nod my head, 'maybe he could help me', I thought. Then we decided to arrange a meeting where I again peppered him with many questions, and all his answers just made sense! More exposure to off market properties, being taken seriously by agents, his building background, (absolutely invaluable so I could factor in costs of repairs, reno's etc.), negotiating techniques, his knowledge of the market trends, availability to attend any inspections, understanding of the whole buying process, his contacts with agents, solicitors, financiers etc., assistance with directing my focus on the ideal property, & more…
So Frank got the business and from day 1, Frank got on with the job. I consistently received updates & every time we spoke, I found him to be very pleasant & continued to be impressed by his knowledge & approach. At this point there was very little for me to do except focus on the many other important things in my life, it sure gave me piece of mind having Frank in my corner & reduced the stress substantially! Frank managed to secure me a property that I'm really happy with, (showing it to me over a month before it was to hit the market) at a price much less than I expected! “.
