A fruitful guaranteed sale FRUIT Property Geelong has introduced a new deal to guarantee the sale of properties, according to director Peter Julian. “As of this week, clients can be sure their property will be sold or they will not be liable for a hefty advertising bill, he said. “We have seen the number of clients that have been unsuccessful in selling and have been left with bills

between $2000 and $10,000 from their agent and no result.” “We are confident we have the experience to invest in good marketing and advertising and price your property correctly from day one so we can sell it.” Fruit advertises its property on 11 real estate websites and in the Independent newspaper. “We have a heavy use of the

internet, probably more than any other agent in Geelong,” Mr Julian says. “Our package is nearly impossible to beat.” Fruit Property Geelong has managed to obtain offers on all its listings and sold most this year. Mr Julian says the company constantly sells houses all around Geelong and the coast, including a

house in Grovedale recently for more than $1 million. “We have seen our competitors failing to sell properties lately and that’s why we want to offer this guarantee,” Mr Julian says. “Why would you list your property with an agent that doesn’t guarantee what they do? Our commission rates are the same as everyone else but we’re taking all the risk for you.”
