Joseph’s Advice
Sales Manager/Auctioneer Chisholm & Gamon
Key tips for Buyers
Shop 1/103D Bay Street Port Melbourne VIC 3207
• Look in a wider price range to learn market value and help clarify what you really want.
Ph : 9646 4444 Mob : 0413 247 525 www.chisholmgamon.com.au
• Get your finance organised as soon as possible so you can act quickly if you find the right property.
As Sales Manager and Auctioneer at the Port Melbourne office, Joseph Allan combines hard work with an exceptional level of property market knowledge to achieve outstanding results for his clients. Welldeveloped negotiation skills have helped Joseph deliver premium outcomes for a long list of delighted clients. Joseph possesses a sincerity and genuine empathy that his clients find instantly refreshing and assuring. “To really understand and assist my clients I try to be an excellent listener and then act on their instructions with complete ardour and professionalism,” says Joseph.
• There is no such thing as a silly question. Better to ask than regret. • Get a conveyancer/lawyer happy to check the documents of a property you are seriously interested in. • Always inspect twice. The first is emotion, the second should be attention to detail.
