Set on 2.5 very private acres of beautiful tropical gardens, we successfully sold this niche property and business in August 2021.
The owner, Rainer Mueckenberger, has been a practising nudist since his teens. His retreat has been a much-loved slice of paradise, but the time came to sell when his elderly mother in Germany needed his care.
When we came across the listing on Gumtree, we just knew that it sounded like us!
Such a unique property required a unique approach. As it was a nudist retreat, clothing wasn’t optional… so nude up we did!
It was such a one-off experience we included it in our tongue-in-cheek promotional video, which gained 50 million views and hit the headlines in more than 120 worldwide news outlets.
Rainer knew what he wanted from the sale, and our trademark tenacity got him the result he was after in the end.
Whatever it takes to sell your property, we’ll do it.
Even if that means baring all!
To ensure a quick sale on this unit in the Alex Heads Golden Triangle, we took a calculated risk. Given how strong we knew the market was, and the high auction clearance rate, a no-reserve auction was a great way of attracting multiple bidders for this two-bedroom unit.
While technically a property could sell for as little as $1, in the right market a no-reserve auction appeals to as wide an audience as possible while still getting a great price.
And the gamble well and truly paid off!
This two-bedroom unit sold for nearly $100,000 more than the complex record in April 2021.
Our understanding of real estate means we can read the market like a book, and we will make this knowledge work hard for you.
On the market for 16 years, 62 real estate agents had tried and failed to convince the owner of 7 Yakola Parade to accept an offer.
While others may think twice about taking on such a tough gig, it’s just the sort of challenge we love!
Thanks to COVID-19, the sale was made a bit more interesting! We had to grapple with issues caused by social distancing restrictions, as the elderly owner was understandably cautious about the number of viewings.
But once again it was our trademark persistence that got it over the line.
We followed up every lead, and the eventual buyers had in fact showed early interest and then backed off. We kept in touch, and eventually the time was right for them to make an offer.
Fortunately the stars were aligned, and the offer was once the owner was willing to accept.
We will take on absolutely any property and we will make sure it sells.
Even the ‘ugliest house in Alex’!
