This week at MBPS
If a job is worth doing, it is worth doing well... Philip Stanhope - 4th Earl of Chesterfield
I almost attributed our saying this week to my dear ‘Dad’, because as I grew up, I believed all the wise sayings were created by him... I cannot tell you how many times, throughout my childhood and leading into adultescence, I heard him say “if a job is worth doing, it is worth doing well, or not at all”. I was very fortunate in life to have such a ‘wise man’ in our household... As, I am sure many of you had in yours. His manner, his wisdom, his demeanour and character, or charisma, made it impossible not to remember and abide by his teachings in life!
In recent times I have noticed that I am hearing those words once again, from people ‘on the street’ and clients, so perhaps another example of our ‘old fashion’ ways and thoughts coming back into ‘vogue’, so to speak... Here’s hoping!
In saying that, sadly we find that in our industry there are those who are looking for just the result without care as to how ‘the job is done’, which has been the subject of our Newsletter in recent times. I hate to think that I am ‘getting too old’ for this, however I find it increasing difficult to ‘battle’ the ‘bullish’ tactics of some to acquire business. Only this week, once again, I have experienced this, where it seems acceptable to some Real Estate Agents to act outside of our very heavily regulated ‘Legislation’ – a simple thing, like obtaining an ‘Authority to Sell’. It is not up to our Sellers, and it is not about ‘Commission’, it is about having the “Authority” to introduce a buyer to a property and “Act” for the Seller, not the Buyer... It is not rocket science!
A good thing we love what we do...
We have a New Listing this week, with Apartment 5A The Inlet being presented for Sale to our client base initially prior to going to market. Located in the highly regarded, ‘iconic’ residential only complex, ‘The Inlet’, this 2 bedroom, with 2 living rooms, or optional 3rd bedroom, 2 bathrooms, with powder room, has been beautifully and tastefully renovated. The “A” style apartments in ‘The Inlet’ are particularly popular for several reasons, including their spacious main balcony, which is ideal for entertaining. The apartment is available to view at any time by appointment after November 13th, so please call Mary on 0431 002 552 to arrange.
We have featured below Apartment 1002 Cerulean, which truly offers value for a 190m2, 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom apartment with 2 side by side car spaces and captivating views, at only $2,495,000. A luxury residential only complex, completed in 2021 by one of our local developers, The Drew Group, Cerulean is a quality boutique building of only 28 apartments. Located in a very quiet area in Main Beach – just where Pacific Street meets Cable Street - a ‘stones through’ to the beach and a stroll to Tedder Avenue. Apartment 1002 is certainly worth viewing and is available to view at any time by appointment. So, please call either myself or Carmen to arrange.
We have also featured Apartment 24 Royal Surfrider – This apartment, once again, offers real value in Main Beach, with its stunning Broadwater views and pristine original condition, together with and very importantly 2 car spaces, we really do not understand why it has not sold. It is possible that buyers are not able to see past the ‘original finishes and furnishings’ – where is their foresight? The Seller is motivated and will consider all offers. Call Claire on 0414 525 212 to arrange an inspection.
We have mentioned Surfers Mayfair previously – an “off market”, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom Apartment in a resort style complex in Budds Beach. It has good main river views and ocean glimpse from Level 9 and is perfectly liveable as is, or a great platform to renovate. Selling point - the price - at $779,000. It is also featured below. Once again, please call Claire to arrange a private inspection.
We have a new ‘unmentionable’ Contract this week and we are also working on another ‘off market’ sale, so watch this space...
In Property Management this week, we are all but out of ‘stock’... We do have the two listed below that are both at what is considered “affordable rent” for 2 bedroom apartments in Main Beach – Apartment 18 Scalinada at $695 per week and 9 Main Place at $700 per week.
Have a great weekend!
Very best wishes,
