The marketing campaign had begun, the styling was in place and I had 6 weeks to sell. Residing overseas meant I was relying on my agent Alex Rutherford of Place Estate Agents to ensure all was in readiness and to deliver a sale in the short period. A good start attracted much interest but offers fell short of the mark. Inspection numbers dwindled and with week 5 closing there was still no acceptable offer. I was facing a protracted sale period or even withdrawing my apartment from sale when through her exceptional negotiation skills Alex was able to convince one of the potential buyers at the time to find that bit extra to achieve my accepted price. For many years Alex took the time once a year to provide me with valuable advice on the unit market in Brisbane City. I strongly recommend Alex Rutherford and her professional and helpful staff at Place Estate Agents, New Farm to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in Brisbane. Francesco Italy
