NEW LISTING

8A Northcote Avenue, Paxton Welcome to the 16th edition of Stone Property News for the villages, Congewai and Quorrobolong areas. The buyer market at present is crazy with buyer demand extremely strong and available listings in extremely short supply. As mentioned in my last newsletter, buyer competition will bring out the best results with most properties at present selling over vendor’s expectations. With 4 sold properties in the villages and another 5 under contract since the last edition in mid June, most buyers are snapping up properties in the 1st week of marketing. Having achieved some outstanding sale prices for my vendors I currently have a large volume of buyers looking for homes or property in the villages. If you or someone you know is thinking of selling please give me a call. Lifestyle buyers and first home buyers are making up the strongest section of the buyer market with investors still about but they are struggling to compete with the 1st home owner market. If you are considering selling NOW is most definitely the best time.

Realestate.com.au most recent newsletter reports: “Despite the unprecedented market conditions the COVID-19 health pandemic has created, Australia’s passion for property has never been stronger. Recent months have seen realestate.com.au experience record audience numbers and a surge in buyer enquiries.”

Excellent local knowledge - 08 Jul 2020 Michael is very knowledgeable and in tune with the local real estate market, he is very attentive and goes above and beyond his requirements to give you the best possible outcome. Michael sold our property off market and kept us informed throughout the entire process . We couldn’t have hoped for a better real estate agent and would thoroughly recommend Michael if you’re in the real estate market.

Stone Real Estate, is Rock solid!

29 Jun 2020 Michael went “above and beyond” any real estate agent I have dealt with to ensure the sale of my property was a success. Given the difficult period we have all experienced with the “Covid Pandemic” I was really impressed with the protocols he enforced when clients viewed my property.

I would also like to thank Noah, a very pleasant and professional young man.

Both of these gents made the experience stress free for me, always willing to communicate at any hour.

Outstanding service - 26 Jun 2020 Michael’s professionalism and attention to detail meant that our house was advertised and sold within 10 days.

He is straight forward and an excellent communicator. A pleasure to deal with. We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone selling or buying a property. We would not use anyone else.

Superb, Professional, Painless - 28 Jun 2020 I specifically chose Michael as it was my belief that he had knowledge and experience selling in the villages, that other agents lacked. My beliefs were quickly validated.

From the initial call seeking a valuation through to the sale the whole process was informative, efficient and stress free. Michael’s intimate knowledge of the villages and client base meant inspections before marketing was underway. The marketing campaign was highly professional and not only presented my property beautifully, but also highlighted possibilities for potential purchasers. Four days after launching the online campaign, Michael presented a full price offer, which of course, was accepted.

Michael’s communication was exceptional and I was always aware of what was happening. I would never have thought that selling a property would be stress free, however this experience has actually been enjoyable. I totally recommend Michael, and when I sell again he will be my go to agent.

Absolutely Fantastic Real Estate Agent and Gentleman - 17 Jul 2020 We admit to being repeat offenders with Michael because he is SO GOOD. This is our third episode with him. At all times his manner is professional, ethical, knowlegable, courteous, patient, understanding and helpful. When preparing to market our property Michael was spot on with his suggested price range. For the photo shoot Michael offered to hook up and move our caravan out onto the street so the panoramic view was unobstructed. Contracts for our sale were exchanged in less than three weeks from when the listing was put on the internet. We would recommend Michael to all people wanting to sell their property, as well as those looking to purchase with particular ideas in mind.
