My block of land had a number of problems - it was steep, had protected vegetation, had the highest fire rateing and there were aboriginal sites near. It was also in a difficult time for the economy and construction industry. It was also on the market with a different agent. Laura, Manuel and Cathy saw its potential and planned a new marketing strategy. Despite disappointing results over the first few months, they continued their efforts. When the time was right set the auction date.. The day before the auction, a bid that matched the reserve price was received and I was ready to accept it but on the advice from Cathy, we went ahead with the auction. The result was $130,000 above what I would have accepted. Very, very happy.
