Four out of four to finish June

Yes, all four of this week’s June auctions were successfully sold, giving our vendors yet another 100% auction success rate to finish off the financial year!

This week’s auctions included:

1/465 Murray Road, Preston

This immaculately maintained 2-bedroom villa with a generous courtyard garden appealed to first home buyers, investors and downsizers alike. A short walk from the shops and trams on Gilbert Road, it attracted six active bidders who pushed the price well beyond our happy vendor’s reserve before settling at a very strong $643,000!

2/7 Bartlett Street, Preston

Providing an affordable entry to the property market in the inner-north, this bright 2-bedroom unit had first home buyers looking over their shoulders hoping their landlords weren’t in the same crowd. The end result was a very pleasing sale at $410,000.

133C Bruce Street, Preston

Brand new and offering a fresh modern feel in contemporary low-maintenance living, this 2-bedroom townhouse with its own street frontage (pictured) offered the added bonus of having no owner’s corporation fees. This certainly seemed to strike a chord with several buyers, as five bidders fought it out despite the chilly weather. A sale at $775,000 was the end result of a spirited auction.

28 Mount Street, Preston

Located on a corner site in an attractive residential street with Bell Street at one end and the Gilbert Road trams around the corner, this brand-new double-storey 3-bedroom home offered quality finishes, clean-cut architectural styling and stylish indoor/outdoor entertaining areas. Three strong bidders took the price to an impressive $965,000.

As we have said several times recently in these posts, the current lack of available stock is increasing competition between buyers and creating some great results for sellers. So if you would a confidential chat about whether your property might be suited to a winter sale, feel free to give us a call.
