25.01.2022 Our resident cyclist managed to squeeze in some me time before celebrations tomorrow. Great shot of Evan Walker Bridge and Flinders St station! #bikelife #southbank #southbankmelbourne #flinderstreetstation #melbourne #melbournelife

25.01.2022 The property market in Melbourne is heating up. Demand is outstripping supply and on the weekend we helped our very happy clients leave rental accommodation behind them and secure a wonderful family home in Kew. Our clients had some specific settlement terms and we negotiated them with the selling agent prior to bidding at the auction. Typically at auction, you have to accept the terms on offer so it was important we received agreement prior. The property passed into ...our Buyer Agent, Antony Bucello at a little over $2m and during negotiations, he only budged $5,000 to secure the keys for his client! Our clients are rapt and can't wait to make this property home and to continue living in an area they fell in love with. #buyeragents #buyeragentmelbourne See more

24.01.2022 Melbourne in a minute. Before Thursday’s announcement that Victoria would start a ‘circuit breaker’ 7-day lockdown from Friday, Melbourne was preparing for its second-biggest auction weekend of the year with the number of properties scheduled to go under the hammer well over 1000. This changed as auctions were brought forward to Thursday evening, converted to private sales with set dates or postponed. However, many campaigns continued with their Saturday auction plans and s...witched to an online format. 735 auction results were reported to the REIV and the Melbourne auction clearance rate was 93%. The auctions we attended (virtually) all had multiple bidders and really strong results and the move to online auction platforms didn't deter buyers.

24.01.2022 Remember, property is a long-term investment!

24.01.2022 Appreciate your land! We secured a property for our investor clients that has endless options. On 650sqm and close to shops, schools and public transport they are going to rent out the 4 bedroom property as is whilst the land appreciates. In the future depending on their circumstances they can: 1 Sell as is... 2 Subdivide and Sell 3 Get Plans and Permits and Sell 4 Get Plans and Permits and Build and Sell Every option has them sitting pretty. Located in Lalor, this suburb is benefiting from the ripple effect of people being priced out of the 'good' area in Reservoir and as they wish to stay close to important amenities people are exploring Lalor and Thomastown as options. Antony Bucello recognised the value in this property and inspected it as soon as possible and 2 days later, his clients inspected it. Antony was advised that another offer was likely to be received and accepted by the vendor so he prioritised his assessment and completed all the necessary due diligence so if the clients liked it they could put an offer in that day. The price guide for the property was $650-$710k and he secured it for his clients the same day they inspected it (with the other offer on the table) for $660k. This is some great buying and our clients are ecstatic.

23.01.2022 Well, we haven’t quite returned to boardroom auctions but this is one we attended before the lockdown. A first-time investor referred to us by a mortgage broker engaged Rob Di Vita to find and secure an investment property that was preferably near new and single-story for under $600k. Rob found a ripper property in Glenroy, a 2-bedroom villa unit, 1 of 3, with a lock-up garage. It was brand new and offered good tax minimisation through a depreciation schedule. ... The property was scheduled to be 1 of 15 auctions at clubhouse rooms in Glenroy. It is an efficient way for a real estate company to schedule auctions and get a bunch of people in one room but the atmosphere can be lacking and you can’t see the physical property. However, 5 bidders vied for the property and a genuine opening bid at $520k started proceedings. The property was announced on the market at $560k. Two bidders, one of which was Rob went toe to toe until the property sold under the hammer for $577,950. Well done Rob. A great little low maintenance property for a first-time investor in a suburb that has enjoyed 7.45% growth in the last 12 months. #melbourne #propertymelbourne #buyersagent #buyeragents #buyeragentsmelbourne #propertyvictoria #realestatevictoria #buyingproperty #sellinghouses #melbourneproperty #melbournepropertymarket #melbournerealestate #melbournelife #melbournelocal

22.01.2022 Feeling a little confused about what can and can’t be done in real estate under current restrictions across Australia. Check out this article for an easy to digest break down!

22.01.2022 Yes. It's the law. This might come as a surprise to many but selling agents are legally required to submit all offers received to the vendor, whether verbal or written, unless they have been specifically instructed in writing by their client (vendor) not to. For some light bedtime reading check out the Estate Agents (Professional Conduct) Regulations 2018 or watch this 2-minute video and let Rob break it down for you and provide some tips on how to best present your offer.

21.01.2022 We are very excited to announce that we have been shortlisted for the MyBusiness Award 2020 category Property Business of the Year. MyBusiness editor Maja Garaca Djurdjevic said this year’s MyBusiness Awards carry more weight than ever, given the unparalleled hardship small-to-medium business owners have experienced since the onset of 2020. Antony Bucello our Director said he was humbled that the efforts we have made as a business to continue offering outstanding service a...nd support to our customers during some of the toughest lockdown restrictions in the country is being recognised and celebrated. We feel like winners already with the real estate industry opening back up in Victoria, the ring of steel between Melbourne and Regional Victoria down and our 11th consecutive day of double donuts. #buyeragents #buyeragentsmelbourne

21.01.2022 Before you raise your hand at auction take some deep breaths and follow these tips to ensure you are in control.

20.01.2022 More investors are willing to get their toes wet in the property market and demand is increasing. Read all about it in this weeks Monday Memo.

19.01.2022 Should I invest in a house, townhouse or an apartment? The answer is actually hidden in your property goals and your finances.

18.01.2022 Melbourne in a minute. While the overall number of auctions held over the weekend was lower than previous weeks, the clearance rate was high! There were 565 auction results reported to the REIV and despite being conducted online, the clearance rate achieved 96% with 543 properties selling and only 22 passing in. Even with a number of auctions postponed that is still a significant number of properties going under the hammer and the clearance rates proves that buyers are st...ill out in force. We attended a number of 'online' auctions and all of them had multiple bidders and excellent results, and all sold above their reserves! New listings have been considerably lower over the last week, due to the inability to get any properties photographed for the past 10 days, and we don’t expect to see a lot of new stock this week either. Providing we are able to get out and about again on Friday, expect selling agents to take a week or two after that to get organised before we start to see stock levels increase.

18.01.2022 A Sydney-based investor wanted to take advantage of more bang for buck in Melbourne for properties within 20km of the CBD. Working with Buyer Advocate, Antony Bucello the northern suburbs 15-20km from the CBD were identified as best suited for a low maintenance property within budget. Antony found a brand new 2 bed + study townhouse located walking distance to the shops and new train station in Lalor. ... The added value to this property was it had its own street frontage and driveway. There was no shared land. Its rooms were generously proportioned, it had 2 bathrooms and a single lock-up garage with internal access. The price guide was $620-650k with early discussions indicating the vendor wanted closer to $650k than $620k. Antony negotiated over several days and secured the property for $617,500. The investor now has a low-maintenance property in an area of growing popularity and can get a full depreciation schedule completed to maximise the cash return on his investment property. #melbourne #propertymelbourne #buyersagent #buyeragents #buyeragentsmelbourne #propertyvictoria #realestatevictoria #buyingproperty #sellinghouses #melbourneproperty #melbournepropertymarket #melbournerealestate #melbournelife #melbournelocal

18.01.2022 Every week auction clearance rates are reported. But why are they so important? Auction clearances rates are considered the barometer of market sentiment and buyer confidence. They can be used to help understand if it is a seller's market or a buyer's market. Find out how how you can read the numbers.

17.01.2022 Vendor Advocacy - the little-known free service that makes selling your house so much easier.

14.01.2022 You may have never considered this point before . . . but this is why we suggest you do as much research as possible! You need to be sure you are comparing oranges to oranges and apples to apples.

13.01.2022 Wow! We have already received eight Star Google Reviews from happy clients in 2021. What a way to start the new year! Google Reviews are the next best thing to word of mouth referrals and so important to a small business so a big thank you to our clients for taking the time to write a review. ... A husband and wife that we helped purchase their dream home even wrote a review each they were so happy with our services. #buyeragents #buyingproperty #melbourneproperty

12.01.2022 Strike whilst the iron is hot. We believe in securing the best possible property for the best possible price for our client's circumstances. In this engagement, it took only 7 days! Our client wanted an investment property in Geelong and with our local resident Buyer Agent, Mike Walmsley on their side he knew a good opportunity when he saw it. A 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom family close to shops, public transport and walking distance to the local primary school.... Mike attended the first open and knew the proper was a ripper. Due to the 'ring of steel' still being in place between Melbourne and Geelong his clients were unable to inspect. Mike had a thorough conversation with them and they decided to place an offer of $580k subject to a building inspection. However, a second higher offer from another interested buyer saw Mike negotiating for the property over a period of days and eventually securing the keys for his clients at $605k. It doesn’t always happen so quickly but if the right opportunity presents itself and the due diligence is completed, sometimes it does. More important is buying the right property, not how long it takes! Well done Mike. #buyeragent #buyeragentgeelong #property #realestatevictoria #investor See more

12.01.2022 Buyer's confidence in the market is on the rise and many investors are taking advantage of low borrowing costs and some stamp duty relief. The RBA held the low cash rate in its first meeting of the year and predicted it will stay until at least 2024.

11.01.2022 Getting a good property manager is critical for the ongoing management of your property and isn't just about making sure rent is paid on time, it includes making sure the property is well cared for and at its most appealing to reduce vacancy periods and attract high-quality tenants. Here are some tips to ensure you choose a good property manager : - Select a local property manager ... - Does the property manager have sound knowledge of the Residential Tenancies Act and experience with representation and arbitration at VCAT? - How many properties do they have under management? - Ask them how long they have been in the industry managing properties? - Ask about their tenant screening process - Finally, ask what their vacancy rate and rental arrears %'s are.

11.01.2022 Too nervous to bid at auction. Don't worry we've got your back. A couple found their dream home but just couldn't bear to bid at auction so they engaged cool under pressure Senior Buyer Agent Antony Bucello. Antony inspected the property for them and gave them a dead on the money price estimate for what it would go for. ... On auction day he had his clients on the phone and he was up against 3 other bidders right to the end and due to his questioning of the selling agent earlier knew there were 8 registered bidders in total. So 4 didn't even get a chance to get involved. The quote range for the property was $1.65 to $1.75m and one cheeky bidder opened with a bid of $1.45 and was met with a vendor bid of $1.65m. And then it was on! It was announced on the market at $1.8m and sold under the hammer at $1.93m. Antony's clients were simply over the moon, they jumped in the car and came straight over to sign contracts. They also didn't waste time writing Antony a 5 Google Review. In fact, they both did separately! Well done Antony and well done to our clients, it is a beautiful family home and we know they will have many happy years there!

11.01.2022 We haven't quite put our Christmas tree up yet but there are only 4 auction weekends left until Christmas.

11.01.2022 There is nothing better than being back out at on-site auction on a Saturday. And it looks like our Buyer Agent Antony Bucello has himself carefully positioned so he can watch the crowd and competition whilst making his bids! Melbourne we should be so proud of (double donut) days and our great achievements. Well done! Let’s keep it up. #buyingahome #buyersadvocatemelbourne

10.01.2022 Two peas in a pod. If you and your Buyer Agent understand your roles clearly, you will have the best possible chance of getting your ideal property at the lowest possible price. It is great if you know your budget and property goals and can provide clear feedback throughout the engagement, but don't worry any buyer agent worth their salt will educate and help you along the way.

10.01.2022 More and more investors seem to think they can do it all, including managing their investment property. In the process, they spend more time dealing with tenant complaints than working on the next phase of their investment strategy. Hiring a property manager will not only allow you to focus on the value-added tasks of your investment business, but it will also make sure you keep up with any legislative changes, too.

10.01.2022 A very big Merry Christmas and Happy Festive season from the team at National Property Buyers Victoria. You would not have thought at the start of this year that it was going to be up in the air whether you could celebrate with family and loved ones but we should be so proud of all our efforts during the pandemic and celebrate that we can. Our physical offices are closed until January 4th but you can still reach out to us on 1300 500 555 with any enquiries.

09.01.2022 Should I sell before I buy or buy before I sell? This is a question many people face in their quest to move from their principal place of residence and it's not an easy decision. One decision can put monetary pressure on you and one places time pressure on you. How do you decide?

09.01.2022 ABS data released in January 2021 shows first home buyers are taking out mortgages at the highest rate since 2009. FHBs are being encouraged to enter the market by the availability of Federal and State schemes such as stamp duty concessions, reduced deposit requirements, and first homeowner grants. And we have definitely noticed an uptake of our Buyer Advocacy services by FHB that want to enter the market but want an expert on their side. Recently we helped first home buye...rs find and secure their new home. We found two properties that they loved, their first preference was going to auction after their second preference. However, we had concerns that their first preference would go beyond their budget due to significant interest in the property. We placed an early offer and it forced the agents to bring the auction forward. We missed as expected but at least we could attend the auction of the second preference without wondering what if! At the auction for the other property we were up against one other bidder and the property passed into us, Antony negotiated successfully for the property and his happy clients have already confirmed how glad they were to have a Buyer Agent acting on their behalf. Needless to say we’re delighted with the result and the way you handled the bidding and negotiation. I can’t imagine that we would have been able to maintain our composure during the auction and I’m certain that the agents would have eaten us alive at the negotiating table. #melbourne #propertymelbourne #buyersagent #buyeragents #buyeragentsmelbourne #propertyvictoria #realestatevictoria #buyingproperty #sellinghouses #melbourneproperty #melbournepropertymarket #melbournerealestate #melbournelife #melbournelocal

07.01.2022 Melbourne’s paused property market will resume from 12am Friday. Here’s what you can do in real estate this weekend.

04.01.2022 Read this week's Monday Memo. Buyer urgency is increasing as time to buy before Christmas is decreasing.

03.01.2022 To set yourself up for success when selling, agent selection and property presentation are critical! Remember first impressions do count!

02.01.2022 Helping first home buyers getting on the property ladder. First home buyers engaged us for our full service and Robert di Vita found them a great 3 bedroom single level townhouse in one of Reservoir's most sought-after locations. The property went to auction and passed into Robert at $680k. The vendor's reserve was $730k but Robert fought hard for his clients and secured it at $700k. ... Close to Reservoir Village, Reservoir Views Primary School, public transport, Darebin Creek Trail, the Metropolitan Ring Road and La Trobe University this property should enjoy good capital growth as it appeals to downsizers, FHB, young families and investors. So if in the future they wish to upgrade their home they should get a very healthy return. #melbourne #propertymelbourne #buyersagent #buyeragentsmelbourne

01.01.2022 You know your client is happy when 3 days after you help them purchase their dream apartment during lockdown, they write you a ripper 5 Star Google Review. Our first home buyer client found a ground floor, two-bedroom apartment in Coburg and engaged us to assess and negotiate for it. The property was a ripper and in a sought after area of Coburg. It was scheduled to go to auction June 5th, which fell during the extended lockdown period. The agent had a significant ...number of interested parties and called for best and final offers when the public auction couldn’t go ahead. Our Senior Buyer Agent, Antony Bucello asked the agent all the awkward questions (that people don't like to do!!) to ascertain as much as possible about the number of buyers and an indication of price. The property had significant interest and 7 offers were received in total! Our clients snatched the keys from the underbidders with only a few thousand dollars between our offer and the underbidder and we were still under our client’s budget and importantly stamp duty free as under the First Home Concession Rate of $600k! Our happy clients wasted no time expressing their gratitude with a 5 Star Google Review. I don’t think we would have gotten our dream apartment without the help of National Property Buyers. I can’t recommend National Property Buyers enough. 10/10 A++.
