Ray White The Bayside Group

A chance encounter. That’s all it takes. The right place, the right time… the right conversation with the right person. Conversations can lead to endless possibilities. Simply asking ‘what do you think of working in real estate?’ to the right customer while working at a petrol station can lead to the right phone number, the right course, and the right career. This is my story. Real estate has opened many d­oors for me, but the one I value the most has been the opportunity to meet all kinds of people. Relationships I've formed with my clients are lifelong – I don’t believe in selling; I believe in opening and nurturing relationships that span decades. I find endless inspiration from my mother, my family, and those I cross paths with every day. I’ve been fortunate enough to travel across countries and experience different cultures which is a privilege I don’t dismiss. These experiences have lead me to understand that every person I interact with is truly unique, with their own story. Above all, family is the most important thing to me. Whether blood-related or not, family is the thread that binds our community together. I believe that by treating everyone with the respect and love I impart to my family, I’m able to deepen every connection with integrity. This is my story.

For Buxton Sales Consultant, Aidan Oke it's all about the numbers. Starting out in the industry with the Real Estate Institute of Victoria, Aidan was once responsible for compiling the sales data that is the basis of expert valuations across the state. So it's no surprise that since becoming an agent his focus has been on helping his clients establish the true value of their property...and helping buyers see good reasons to increase that value! Focusing on the data that shows the state of the market, Aidan brings a technical edge to appraising and marketing his vendors' properties that can add real value to his vendors' selling price. Aidan takes a methodical approach - his appraisals often run to several pages, with up-to-the minute data from industry and government sources ensuring vendors have a clear expectation of their property's value to within the tens (not hundreds) of thousands of dollars. However, he is quick to point out that it takes more than an understanding of statistics to be a good agent. Raised and educated in the area, Aidan's technical expertise is rounded out by local knowledge - selling every type of property, from one bedroom apartments to multi-million dollar beachfront homes. His intuitive understanding of values and demand in Mentone and surrounding bayside suburbs is further complemented by a commitment to providing a true local service. As the sole agent in control of his vendors' sale, he personally manages every aspect; from the initial appraisal, to the creation of a targeted marketing plan, to conducting every open-for-inspection, to the final negotiation. Closely connected to the area with networks that date from his secondary schooling at St Bede's College, Aidan has played local football, follows local AFL favourites, St Kilda, and holds membership at Southern Golf Club. With most of his youth spent in the Parkdale area, Aidan completely understands the number of things that inspire buyers to live and invest here ...from the great numbers of schools, cafes and beaches they can enjoy, to the rewarding selling price number they are almost certain to see!
