Barry Plant Agents pivot to deliver strong results to vendors in last-minute auctions

This week our agile Agents scored strong results from auctions brought forward due to the latest snap lockdown.

In the dark, under floodlights and garage lights, we delivered strong results for our vendors with last-minute auctions being conducted on Thursday night before the restrictions commenced.

A huge result was for an original two-bedroom townhouse at 1/6 Devon Drive, Doncaster East which changed hands for $1.313 million. There were four families interested in the property and it came down to two bidders in the final few minutes.

Four bidders turned up to bid at 2 Russell Street, Bulleen to compete for the family home set on over 1,000sq. It was a solid finish to the auction with a final sale price of $1.43 million - $180,000 over the reserve price.

A 40-year-old unit with two bedrooms at 6/51 Lower Plenty Road, Rosanna fetched $920,000 - $240,000 above the reserve. Five bidders contested strongly to drive the result, which is among the highest for a two-bedroom unit in the area. Rosanna is a hot suburb right now however I feel it still has a lot of growth to come.

An additional 4 homes were sold by private sale late Thursday evening - before the restrictions began.

Today’s online auctions had 6 go under the hammer.

The highlight online auction today was 22 Boyd Street Doncaster. With 18 registered buyers, 87 strong bids and 150 viewers the price soared to an impressive $1,489,000.

Buyer confidence is still out there in our local areas. Despite the looming lockdown, our experienced agents were calm and ready pivot to an alternative plan to deliver strong outcomes for sellers and buyers.
