This week at MBPS
Our very lives depend on the ethics of strangers, and most of us are always strangers to other people - Bill Moyers
I am pleased to say that I am finally back in Main Beach after a wonderful break, thank you once again, to our great MBPS Team. I have been back 2 week, however, as always – hit the ground running... That is my only excuse, for the lack of Newsletters for almost a month - Our apologies!
We were certainly well ahead Channel 9 News, with my ‘rant’ in our last Newsletter about unconscionable behaviour of ‘some’ Real Estate Agents... Sadly, last week Channel 9 reported nationally that, according to the Australia’s Ethics Index 2023, which was recently released by the Governance Institute of Australia, “Real estate agents are now the least ethical occupation, with their perceived behaviour approaching 'somewhat unethical”.
You may wonder why a Real Estate Agent would highlight this news – because we are battling to ‘break the mould’... We could re-brand to be “Property Consultants”, however, our licencing will remain the same, “Licenced Real Estate Agent”... So, we can only continue to fight against the ‘label’ placed upon us and ask that people judge for themselves and not because ‘Brian told me so...’ Now that is a random comment that most may not understand, and it is certainly showing my age. It was a promo for Channel 9 News some 30 or 40 years ago which promoted its news around its two anchors in Sydney and Melbourne, Brian Henderson and Brian Naylor. A little nostalgia for those of you from Sydney and Melbourne with long memories...
Now speaking of News...
In Sales, we have five New Listings, which are all very diverse –
Featured below is the half floor, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment in Royal Surfrider, with 2 car spaces and 3m lock-up storage cage. Offering residential only living, only a stone’s throw from both the Ocean and Broadwater, with views of boat masts to the north, amazing sunsets to the west and the turquoise ocean to the east...

Located in the Surfers Mayfair at Budds Beach we have a north facing, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment with 1 car space, now available at a very reasonable $779,000. It is in original condition, however pristine in presentation, so well worth viewing. Being a ‘circular’ shaped building Surfers Mayfair gifts Apartment 39 - situated on level 9 - with the perfect aspect of East, North and West, to be enjoyed by having a balcony that stretches the whole length of the apartment. Surfers Mayfair is home to 50 apartments over 12 levels, situated on 3,430m2 of land, guaranteeing space and privacy. The tropical grounds host, a full-sized tennis court, outdoor resort style pool, BBQ area and sauna. There is even a Koi Karp Pond nestled within the gardens. So, please call Claire to arrange an inspection. We have also featured below.
We also have a beautifully renovated ground floor apartment with private courtyard in Norfolk Apartments. A spacious 225m2, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms apartment, with tandem car spaces. Situated directly across the road from the beach, pedestrian walk, and surf lifesaving tower. Your own private seaside beach house with both internal and private access! It will be released to the market next week once photographs have been obtained. However, in the meantime please call Carmen on 0410 706 726 to arrange a private inspection at any time.
We are also awaiting photography on a spacious 148m2, 2 bedroom apartment in Oscar on Main, which we will present next week. The apartment, which has a quality renovation, features separation of bedrooms and a large wrap around entertainer’s balcony with those views that everyone is looking for - not to be built out... The apartment is available to view by appointments, so please call either Carmen or myself to arrange an inspection.
We have had a New Contract this week, however, it is one of those ‘unmentionable’, as it is not yet unconditional...
We have also had a Settlement this week, so congratulation to the Seller and buyers of Apartment 1012 Liberty Pacific! Also, to Carmen who brought the parties together!
Please do not miss our Open Homes on Wednesday this week, as listed below.
Also, see our Properties for Lease below.
Have a great weekend!
Very best wishes, Annette and the MBPS Team

Mr. Jeeves...
Joke of the week
Our joke this week was kindly provided by one of our lovely locals, Peter, who I must say contributes extensively to Mr. Jeeves' repertoire - thank you Peter!
Laws of Life:
• Variation Law - If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now.
• Law of Gravity - Any tool, nut, bolt, screw, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible place in the universe.
• Doctors' Law - If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there, you'll feel better. But don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.
• Law of Biomechanics - The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.
