25.01.2022 I'm so proud of my team. We work so hard for our clients. We drag auctions out way beyond the norm to ensure the vendors are overly satisfied with the auction outcome. Building a culture and passion within the business is something I'm more than passionate about. Everyday, they front up, excited for the new challenge presented before them. My team are always willing to go the extra mile for the love of the gavel - and this woman is no exception. The only female to be competing this year in the REIV senior auctioneering finals. She's a jet! Go smash it leesh! We are all gunning for you more than you know!
24.01.2022 Can you tell I'm super excited about not calling Auctions? I genuinely believe many businesses can still operate whilst being COVID safe, especially real estate. I know there are alot of mixed emotions and opinions out there about stage 4 and the way the government is currently being run. But one thing is for sure, I couldn't do his job, and neither could the vast majority of people. And I couldn't dare think about the degree of difficulty that comes with his position. Ima...gine being asked the same questions over and over again when your guided by the health experts. With him or not, it's irrelevant. The priority is the health and safety of Victorian's. We're all frustrated and want to get back to work - but work comes after your health. It can't last much longer. The end is near.
24.01.2022 The story of, the golden bunny What's the golden bunny? Why do you have a gold rabbit lapel pin? Where did the name come from? These have been some of the questions I've been asked lately about my new nickname, the golden bunny. To those wanting to know the answers, here's the story. ... Just before Melbourne's second lockdown, I received a wonderful gift from a special client and lifelong friend (won't mention their name). So humbled by the gesture I was handed this beautiful brown box. As I opened the box I was in awe. It was a beautiful lapel pin - a golden rabbit. I lifted my head to express my gratitude for the gift but then tilted my head to ask the question, "I love it, thank you!, but why a rabbit"? My wonderful client said, "because you're the golden bunny". In a state of confusion I asked, "what do you mean"? The response made me laugh but somewhat made sense. "Fabian, you have the energy of a bunny and you hop from auction to auction - hence the golden bunny". I just smiled and socially distance embraced my client. It was so thoughtful yet so cleverly thought out. Since then I've started being reffered to as 'the golden bunny' through texts, emails and phone calls. Even turning up on auction day being greeted by the nickname with agents. It's now stuck. There was a recent instance where a vendor said to me just before starting their auction, "why do they call you the golden bunny"? I cheekily responded, "you're about to find out!" Now I wear the pin at every auction. That's the story of, the golden bunny .

23.01.2022 It's been a roller-coaster year. Plenty of amazing Auctions, but also challenges we've never faced before. We got through it. It's not over yet, but we're winning. Let's keep it that way.... Thank you to all our amazing clients for your support. We you!
21.01.2022 A blast from the past. My first ever auctioneering award was being awarded the novice auctioneer of the year for Greg Hocking Real Estate. A wonderful company full of great people that gave me my start in the industry. Nothing but praise for Greg and the whole team that were able to support me in my agent and auctioneer journey. Never forget where it all started.

16.01.2022 It's not everyday you get to call clients friends for life, but from the moment I met Dina and her husband, I knew a special relationship was forming. There's no greater feeling in business than when someone puts their trust whole heartedly in you. The determination and motivation you find within yourself in that moment is purely overwhelming. I gave the auction everything I had for them, I had to. It was an emotional roller-coaster. But what made it so special was the story ...behind it and the friendship we now have. Dina and I have spoken every week since that amazing day. She even sent me a 5 minute video testimonial for my submission on becoming a finalist for Australian Auctioneer of the year - it worked. Only she could describe that joyous day as a vendor who wanted me as their Auctioneer and she was determined to get her message out there about me. Di, what can I say? It's people like you that make me love what I do so much. You give me the oxygen to call great Auctions. Thank you. Here is the auction that has been one of the highlights of my career: https://youtu.be/fl8XHk84BCI

15.01.2022 It's been a hell of a journey since my first profile video at, EYS. From being mentored by 'my mentor' and the best in the business, Brent Ilicic - I've learnt, trained and honed the art of auctioneering. Along the way I've worked, and still work with some of Victoria's top performing agents. They have helped me grow and become the auctioneer I am today. Now, the auction ammo I have for game day is ready to achieve vendors the best possible outcome. Here's to many more profi...le videos. A special thank you to Ben Thomas - Ray White Real Estate and Jack Rickard - Ray White Real Estate for allowing me the opportunity to capture amazing auction footage at your auctions.

14.01.2022 Words like this from vendors is the reason I'm so passionate about auctioneering.
12.01.2022 This was an absolute peach of an auction! How's the market???
12.01.2022 Weekend wrap up! Massive weekend. Great clearance rates across EYS. A massive shootout to Audwin from WIN Real Estate. Pure genius to get the vendor top dollar after suggesting another auction should take place for their property.

11.01.2022 Auction video for 56 Daffodil Road Thank you to our clients Matt and Donna for their testimonial of my self and Ben Thomas - Ray White Real Estate
11.01.2022 Now here's a story. 12 months ago these vendors bought 23 Gaydon St, Ferntree Gully for 830k. This is pre covid. Shortly after they bought, we faced a pandemic. The uncertainty of property prices was nothing short of scary. 12 months later they listed with Jack Rickard from Ray White Ferntree Gully. Jack, has become one of the most prominent agents in the city of Knox. He's honed his craft and has become ruthless. He's now a power agent. ... The vendors were in safe hands. The property sold last week at a twilight auction for $901,000 which was a suburb record - generating a staggering 81k over reserve (still in a pandemic). Remember, this property was bought 12 months ago just before covid. It's mind blowing But this is what you get when you mix a power agent with vendors that are prepared to listen to sound professional advice. Jack, you mastered the campaign mate. Well done! Thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to auction that property and tell a truly great story. It's not the auction that sells, it's the process. A special shout out to Rene Mawad for providing world class auction support on the day - your work with the bidders (back and forth) was also the reason the property sold for such an amazing price. Thank you, Rene!
10.01.2022 I've never seen the market like this! Absolutely mental! 8 from 8 today - 100 percent clearance rate. The best part was, we averaged over 100k for all the reserve prices. Last property of the day sold for $243,500 above the reserve! What else but a 5pm banger! A big shout out to the man himself Ben Thomas - Ray White Real Estate for his hard work in all the results today.
