Sold, 8 Brazel Street in Higgins has been sold for... Well, before I tell you the sale price, I'd like you to understand how we got there. This property required a fair bit of work because the current owners bought it with intentions of extending it.
Therefore, it required a particular type of buyer that could see the potential in this property. Most buyers in the current market are looking for turnkey properties, properties they can move into immediately without spending another dollar on it. This one needed a new kitchen and bathroom, and it's dying for an extension.
We found the perfect buyer. They are looking to extend this property, put tenants in there, and then one day knock it down and maybe build two properties on this block. Sometimes you just have to wait a little bit longer to find the right buyer, and that's what we're here to guide you through.
This one just sold for $???,???. That is a great sale price, all things considered in the current market. It did take us a little bit longer than we anticipated to find that perfect buyer.
We are generally selling homes within about 22 days, and this one took around about 40, which is still pretty quick in the current market. If you're thinking of selling, now's the time to act, because spring is just around the corner. All you need to do is click this link just here.
We can book a time to meet, we'll design a strategy and timeline specific for your needs and property. I'm Steve Lowe from Agent Team, looking forward to meeting you soon.
