“Their starting price is $710,000 and the seller thinks, ‘We’ll get it to auction’,” Ms Heavyside said.
“Then they came back for $740,000 and finally came back for $745,000. It was impressive and the sellers were excited.”
The median suburbs of two-bedroom units are at $630,000, meaning the deal is down by more than $100,000, according to PropTrack data.
Paige Heavyside of Heavyside ran a campaign with her father, Tim.
New owners plan to move right away, the home offers 2018 kitchen and bathroom renovations, fresh paint, wood floors and a brighter open design.
Ms Heavyside said: “Buyers love the property they can walk into without spending more money.”
“The refurbished units are particularly attractive to droppers and first-time residence buyers.”
The renovated kitchen includes stone countertops, Bosch appliances and smooth cabinetry.
One of the two lighting bedrooms, each with built-in robes.
Ms HeavySide added that starting October 1, the federal government’s 5% deposit plan is expected to intensify more demand.
“Spring always brings more lists, but the program is talking a lot.
“My advice to buyers is not to assume that everything will be under the hammer.
“Always ask a question, you might have had the opportunity to buy it before.”
The updated bathroom is part of the 2018 renovation.
