BACKGROUND
Anand and Shalini, first-time homebuyers, were exploring suburbs in The Hills District, including Baulkham Hills, Kellyville, Castle Hill, Cherrybrook, Bella Vista, and Norwest. They initially reached out after meeting us at an inspection in Bella Vista. Their weekend travels from inner west Sydney for property inspections had become challenging, especially after missing out on several properties. Once they engaged our services, we customised a search plan to meet their needs.
OUR APPROACH
1. Targeted Suburb Selection
We prioritised house searches in Kellyville, Norwest, and Bella Vista. As a second preference, we considered duplexes and townhouses in Castle Hill and Cherrybrook. Anand and Shalini were not interested in Blacktown council areas, adding another layer of complexity to staying within budget.
2. Focused Property Inspections and Due Diligence
We inspected numerous properties across the selected suburbs, carefully evaluating each against their budget and requirements. Some properties exceeded the budget, while others did not meet our due diligence standards. Despite the challenges, we persisted and eventually found a house scheduled for auction that met their criteria and budget.
3. Strategic Auction Tactics
We prepared thoroughly for the auction and adopted a strategic approach, allowing the property to pass at auction. This strategy enabled us to negotiate post-auction, securing the house at a price well below market value, saving our clients around $90,000.
SUCCESSFUL ACQUISITION
Post-Auction Negotiation Success
Our strategic approach at the auction allowed us to secure the property at an excellent price, well within Anand and Shalini’s budget. The successful negotiation provided them not only with a great home but also a significant financial advantage.

FUTURE POTENTIAL
The property’s location in a high-growth area with access to quality schools, public transport, and amenities makes it an excellent long-term investment. Anand and Shalini decided to retain it as an investment property initially, with the potential to move in later when the timing is right for their family.

The successful acquisition not only met their budget but also provided them with an asset positioned for strong capital growth.
