A blue chip new family home site in an ideal location surrounded by quality

Price: $2.135mm

An ideal neighbourhood to put down roots and raise a family

Jim is a long-time client. Like many of our clients, he’s a successful medical practitioner who’s done very well with property over the years.

He works crazy hours and wanted to build a family where his family can spend quality time together. He knew the area he wanted to build in, and sought our help to find and analyse suitable sites. A key priority was to ensure that he didn’t overcapitalise (e.g. spend more on land + build than the end market value).

The neighbourhoods within the suburbs he liked are very tightly held, so a big part of our job involved reaching out to local agents to flush out good off-market opportunities.

We eventually zeroed in on an ideal off-market block in his #1 area. The numbers stacked up, and the build concept was safe. Negotiation was challenging, with vendors who continually tried to change the goalposts and backtrack on previous ground. We secured it eventually for just below his budget.

He says nice things about us: “I have completed a project with Andrew in Melbourne and I highly recommend his services. He has in depth knowledge of the market and knows the process of development inside out. He will be able to assist with as much or as little of the entire process as you wish, depending on what your requirements are for your particular project. He is honest and hardworking. You always get to talk to him directly if he’s managing your project.
