Nick’s Advice

Director / Auctioneer Chisholm & Gamon Black Rock

Preparing to Sell

597 Balcombe Road Black Rock VIC 3193

• Have a local agent through well in advance before putting your property on the market so they can provide you with the right advice, presentation, marketing, timing & method of sale.

Ph : 9589 3133 Mob : 0421 839 425 www.chisholmgamon.com.au A steady focus on high standards and client satisfaction are what drive Nick to succeed. Prior to joining the real estate industry, Nick worked as a landscape gardener.

His passion for property stepped indoors nearly a decade ago when he became a Chisholm & Gamon team member to continue pursuing his love of working with people and their properties.

Now as one of the directors of the Black Rock office Nick thrives on building a customer focused team and clients for life.

• Do you own research on the value of your property, visit local open homes in the area to help you form your own opinion, this will also help you meet the local agents.

• Present the home as best you can for photography and inspections, declutter etc as they say, you never get a second chance at a first impression.
