Sydney Avenue, Barton, ACT
Alexander Anlezark and James Meli were introduced to these clients through their mortgage broker, with an unusual brief.
The buyers were heading overseas on a posting but wanted to secure an apartment in Barton ready for their return in a few years’ time.
Buying ahead of a move like this takes discipline, since the property has to make sense on a longer horizon rather than for immediate occupation.
The team presented a number of on and off-market options before identifying an apartment that suited both the brief and the timeframe.
Securing it off-market meant no competition and a clean negotiation.
The clients now have a Barton base waiting for them, settled well before they need it and removed from the stress of buying remotely once they return.
