Testimonial We have had absolute pleasure in both the selling and purchasing perspective with David Berns.

Selling recently in the Doonan area with David has been a seamless process.

David conducted himself with the utmost professionalism and honesty. He made it clear what the property could sell for and what we could expect as clients. We felt very comfortable with David from the outset, therefore we gave David exclusive authority to sell our property. It went on the market and instantly created huge interest, 2 days later the property was sold above and beyond our expectations.

Purchasing in the Eumundi area with David was a breath of fresh air. He made us feel very comfortable with the prospective purchase, provided honest and upfront information about the property, then guided us to complete the purchase in an experience that was both satisfying for us as well as the vendor.

We highly recommend David both as an advocate in purchasing a property and also as a selling agent. We wouldn’t sell with anyone else!

Kind Regards Jamie and Natalie Skrepetis

Queensland Valuer-General Neil Bray said less than one-quarter of one per cent of landowners had lodged objections to statutory land valuation notices issued on 4 March 2015.

“A total of 2662 objections have been received this year representing just 0.22 per cent of the 1,236,970 notices issued to landowners in 29 of Queensland’s 62 rateable local government areas,” he said.

“This year’s figure is down from the average per cent of objections received over the last five years which is 0.25 per cent and

lower than the average per cent over the last 10 years of 0.46 per cent.

Noosa, plus the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast.

“Online lodgement of objections rose 79 per cent this year, with 1062 lodged online.

Landowners who lodged their objection online can track its progress.”

Landowners can access the 2015 valuation year round on the Land Valuations Globe on the DNRM website - www.dnrm.

Mr Bray said all objections received would be reviewed by experienced departmental officers.
