Area Specialist Paul Franks

As a busy mother of 3 Fiona knows how to get the job done, and living in both Avalon and Newport for the past 20 years she is able to give an honest, hands on opinion of the Peninsula and all it has to offer, this has been proven to help the success of a sale when describing the idyllic lifestyles of the area. Whilst maintaining a family life, Fiona has been working in the real estate industry in a broad manner, starting with behind the scenes in the Real Estate training industry giving the support to the sales agents to help them through the right ways to get a sale done and giving her a keen eye on what is the most successful way to assist the vendor. Fiona left the training world behind and went to the forefront of real estate to share her expertise with the vendors. This has been proven to be a successful transition with a list of sales and happy vendors to prove her ability. Fiona prides herself, and has a secret passion in negotiating to get the price as high as possible for the vendor. While Fiona is extremely enthusiastic, she is extremely aware that the vendor is her client and works hard to prove this. It’s not just about the sale its about the right result. One of Fiona’s moto’s is “do you want your property listed or do you want it sold”. Fiona’s prior expertise was in both the domestic and commercial lighting industries, working alongside architects and interior designers in Asia Pacific area. This industry has definitely given her an edge in the importance of lighting and how it can it can add value to your property. This has also assisted her with her negotiating technic that she is so proud of.

Legendary stock market trader WD Gann stated in 1927 that "knowledge is power". Plenty of agents claim to have knowledge and promise the world, however many do not deliver on those promises. In an industry that can have poor public perception, I can offer home owners credibility as a registered valuer, in addition to being a licensed real estate agent, having over 20 years experience selling and valuing properties on the Northern Beaches - 4,000 + homes in recent years. I can show you what the true market value of your home is, combined with a selling strategy so you achieve the highest price. You will have a far greater chance of achieving your dream result by engaging multiple buyers around a fair market value, driving the price up, rather than advertising at a figure that may be seen as unrealistic. If you are after the best possible result for your greatest asset, based on facts, not false hope and spin, I would be delighted to help you.
