11th NOVEMBER AUCTION EVENT STATISTICS:

  • 10 of the 16 properties submitted to auction SOLD – a 62.5% clearance rate.
  • Of the properties SOLD, our team achieved an average of 23 buyer inspections per property during the intensive 21-day marketing campaign leading up to the auction.
  • Of the properties SOLD, there was an average of 4.8 bidders vying for each property. 

It was a fantastic auction night! Everyone worked so well together to create the best possible auction night, and it transpired to excellent results. There is also strong interest in the properties that didn’t sell on the night, and I am confident they will be sold this month. 

Thanks again to our outstanding Auctioneer, Paul Casarotto, and the wonderful support from Domain, The Macarthur Advertiser and Harcourts NSW.

Renovate your Outdoor Space

Australians love nothing more than outdoor living areas, and with the warmer months ahead, it makes a lot of sense to make the most of your outdoor space. 

If you are looking at selling your home in the future, refining your outdoor living areas doesn’t have to cost a lot, but can greatly increase the appeal and selling price of your home.

Provide outdoor entertaining
A good outdoor entertaining space is highly sought-after by buyers. This could take the form of a deck, a pergola, a retractable sun-shade, or verandah.

Also consider the inclusion of an outdoor barbeque and dining area.

Outdoor lighting
In the evening, a garden or an entrance looks wonderful with good lighting. It can emphasise a feature or hide a blemish. Carefully selected lighting can create a wonderful effect that makes your property very desirable. 

There is a huge range of solar lights available that can achieve a wonderful effect without wiring.

Don’t forget to organise the inspections of your home at a time that shows your lighting off!

Car spaces
Off-street car spaces are worth a lot, both in dollars and convenience. Covered off-street parking such as a carport or a garage is right at the top of the list for many buyers.

Landscaping
Defined landscaped areas can add hugely to the overall presentation and desirability of your home – however it can detract if done badly. Achieve a balance between easy maintenance, water efficiency, and hard and soft surfaces to create a landscape in which your property stands out.

Consider the plants you choose, as some are better at certain times of the year. With a bit of research you can have a garden that changes, having different features for every season.
