San Martin Place

In the midst of a competitive market where properties were fetching above asking, my clients eyed a home listed at an initially high price. When a comparable, more updated property in the vicinity surfaced at a lower cost, prompting the original listing to drop, we seized the opportunity. Swift action, strategic negotiation, and a vision for improvements allowed us to secure the property at an excellent price. In fact, we ended up getting this property for less than the other property sold for! After a few months of dedicated remodeling, the finished home perfectly aligns with my clients' wish list, showcasing the transformative power of strategic enhancements.
