Being on a tight budget meant our clients felt limited in the scope of their brief. However, Kitty & Miles were willing to think outside the box and assist in securing precisely the renovation dream our clients were seeking.

Our clients were a young first home buyer family looking to acquire their family home. Desiring minimum land sizing, strategic aspect details, set layout design, all within a particular school catchment, meant we had our work cut out for us.

But we delivered. And we delivered within 3.5 weeks! The delight in assisting our first home buyers clients was only superseded by our clients’ joy in purchasing their new family home.

Property: House
Attributes: 5 bed 3 bath 2 car
Purpose: Residential
Acquired Via: Auction
Time to Acquisition: 4 weeks

This young family was relocating from overseas and needed a place to call their new home.

We knew this grand home was going to be highly sought after so proceeded to acquire via pre-auction offer. However, due to the vendors’ personal situation our pre-auction offer was stopped in its tracks. This property was going to auction, no ifs and no buts.

Not to be dissuaded, we recalibrated our acquisition strategy so as to ensure we would be the ones to win on auction day.

It was a sterling turnout on auction day, with spectators and media in attendance. Nevertheless, an assertive auction bidding strategy meant our clients won and their dream house became their home.

When a client comes to us with a creative dream we do our very best to bring this dream to life.

Our client was wishing to purchase an Inner West blank slate that could be efficiently transformed into their brand new, architecturally designed home. We found the perfect address for this.

Unfortunately, there were many other interested buyers so it all came down to a fast-paced and challenging auction day event. Working the crowd strategically, Kitty Parker of Kitty & Miles managed to eliminate all competition and successful win at auction.

Now all we are waiting for is the house warming invitation from our ecstatic client!
