Synn and Jeff both
Synn and Jeff both work in Birtinya and wanted to minimise commute time. As first home buyers they had a firm budget of $1,000,000 and a clear brief: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, double lock‑up garage, modern and move‑in ready, as close to Birtinya as possible.
💪The Challenge
Affordable, modern homes close to Birtinya were limited and out of budget. Many options in nearby suburbs would have created long peak‑hour commutes, which the clients wanted to avoid. The couple needed a property that balanced short commute, turnkey condition and strict budget constraints, and they wanted the process handled with minimal stress.
👋Our Approach
Clarified priorities so commute time and turnkey condition remained non‑negotiable while allowing flexibility on exact pocket.
Targeted pre‑market and off‑market opportunities in Birtinya and immediate surrounds to find properties before wider competition.
Negotiated proactively and managed inspections, contract terms and communications with the selling agent to protect the clients through the purchase.
Kept clients informed at every step so Synn and Jeff could make confident decisions without the usual stress of house hunting.
🏠The Outcome
Sally secured a roomy, park‑facing terraced house in Birtinya that matched the brief: 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, double lock‑up garage, found pre‑market and purchased within the $1,000,000 budget. The home is modern, move‑in ready and a short commute to work, exactly what Synn and Jeff wanted. The purchase was completed smoothly thanks to continuous communication and hands‑on management from search through settlement.
💯Why This Worked
Clear brief and priorities enabled a focused search.
Local market knowledge identified pre‑auction opportunity close to Birtinya.
Persistent negotiation and relationship management with agents secured the property before wider competition.
End‑to‑end handling removed stress and saved the clients time.
