WINTER IS THE TIME TO GET NOTICED Spring and Summer are undoubtedly the ‘high season’ in real estate. It’s when a huge number of new listings come onto the market, and when the most sales happen.

After a first glance at the figures, launching your property to the market in Autumn or Winter might feel counter-intuitive. But looking at the data more closely, this strategic decision can reap some serious rewards.

Above all, it comes down to supply and demand.

In Winter, there are fewer properties vying for people’s attention, yet plenty of buyers still actively looking to buy.

There was one weekend last July when Perth was besieged with some of the heaviest rain and strongest wind we had seen in a long time, yet it was also the weekend we delivered some of our most impressive results.

For many properties, we are now achieving better results via the auction process. We put a lot of work into training and development in this area, and it’s great to see more and more of our sellers opting to utilise this powerful sales method.

Our May auction numbers are 76 percent higher than the same month last year (the May schedule is now completely booked out) and June is quickly filling up too. We regularly train with industry leaders in Melbourne, Australia’s auction epicenter, and bring best practices back to our home turf. As a result, our auction success rate sits far above the industry average in Perth.

Whether you are buying, selling or waiting for the right time to act, I encourage you to reach out to us for a chat. Our team is always happy to share knowledge and market insights, and answer any questions you have.

DOUBLEVIEW 61 SYDENHAM ROAD LA style meets relaxed family living in this iconic mid-century home. With just three owners since it was built, homes like this do not come along often, so you will need to move quickly.

A generous, free-flowing layout, a beautiful swimming pool at its centre, and long views out across the city skyline makes this a home that elevates daily life, a stylish yet relaxed retreat you will love to return to.

Characteristic of the era, the two living areas are open-plan and link to their surroundings. The formal living area leads out to a cantilevered, tiled terrace overlooking the street towards the city.

A second family room has a smart, luxury kitchen at one end and opens out to the pool and alfresco area. There´s also a light-filled and versatile breakfast room or study space overlooking the stunning pool and manicured tropical garden.

With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a self-contained garden studio with potential to extend, there is ample space here for larger families or multigenerational living.

MOUNT LAWLEY 51 LAWLEY CRESCENT This extraordinary 1914 Queen Anne style Federation residence, known lovingly as ´Annesley´, is a landmark in Mount Lawley, and arguably one of Perth´s finest character homes. All the hard work has been done in bringing it up to the highest standards of luxury, including extensive restoration work, as well as a host of high-end modern upgrades. The resulting masterpiece now stands as a shining example of a heritage home that combines old world charm with the requirements of today´s faster-paced life.

Located on one of Mt Lawley´s most coveted streets, this home is steps from Perth College, as well as the shops, cafés, restaurants, and transport connections of Beaufort Street. You also have the convenience of the Perth CBD 3km up the road - a very manageable walk, or a short drive by car.

There are not many homes that can truly take your breath away, but this incredible heritage property does just that.
