Ray White Cannington set April on fire in the sales department, with a massive 18 properties sold over the month, the best month in sales since mid 2015! There was a few properties that sold after extended periods on the market, as well as some properties selling after auction.

The success story for the month of April in sales, was the property at 336 Railway Parade in Beckenham, which sold at Auction under the hammer. The property had previously been marketed with another local agent for  the best part of 6 months, and had conditional offers, but they fell through. The campaign was extremely well lead by Steve Howell, the property saw 4 registered bidders on the day and with 2 of those bidders going toe to toe. The property is upcoming to settlement in mid May, and the owners were thrilled with the result and service Steve was able to provide them.

April also saw another listing blitz and in particular aimed towards Auctions, with 6 new properties listed to be sold by Auction at the upcoming “On the Market – The Auction Event”. The event is to be held on Saturday June 17th at the Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre, with a huge number of properties set to be Auctioned on one day of opportunity to showcase property to a huge audience of pre-approved buyers.

If you are seriously thinking to market your property and were considering taking the property to Auction, but wanted to to find out how it all works, feel free to get in touch any time to discuss things further on 0411 598 969.

In addition to the 18 sales registered for April, there were also 13 new properties listed, building up for a fairly decent May, and a very busy June.

There were also 120 new buyers met during the month at home opens and from internet enquiries, adding to the already extensive buyer database available at Ray White Cannington, which now sits at 11,394 buyers for all types of properties including investments, developments, upgrading families, downsizing couples as well as first home buyers.

The property management department has also had another great month, with 29 properties leased for the month, including 16 newly leased properties and 13 lease renewals negotiated.
