RECENT SALES Fernery Road Upwey $910,000
The Summer Real Estate Market HOT HOT HOT!!…. The federal election results in May and three subsequent interest rate drops have seen the market rebound strongly. From lows of 1 person per open per weekend in late 2018, we have witnessed averages now of between 4 to 12 groups per open home per weekend. This has led to perhaps a $20,000 – $40,000 increase in sale prices since May. First home buyers in particular are out in force, however, we have seen open homes recording 20 plus inspections on every price bracket from $400,000 to $1,500,000, so the pickup is all across the board. Presentation, and pricing the property competitively, remain vital to obtaining multiple offers, and we are now seeing properties often sell above the advertised price range again. Helping to boost great sales results is the lack of houses actually for sale. Statistically, we would say there are between 20-30% fewer homes for sale than usual for this time of year. So, if you are thinking of selling, the time is here! Give us a call and we will have your local expert assist you with your property needs. Plus, not only that, we’ll also give you great advice on home presentation as well as brand new digital marketing package that is unique to First National. No other agent can do what we can do with digital advertising (shh… we can’t talk about it here, but we are happy to tell you our secrets in person – just as many views as realestate.com - Find out how.)!!!

Lots has been happening locally... The team attended two trivia nights Ranges First National supported, one at St. Lukes Church and another at Gembrook Primary School, coming close to the win at both!
Emerald held its very irst CJD fun run and it was a huge success. Amy and her partner participated and ran in the ‘Sea of Orange’ raising money for people living with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. The event was a huge success with nearly 500 people attending the event and raised $30,000 for the charity, we all look forward to next year! Mat & Aidan were in their element at the Brew Fest serving some top-notch beers and raising money for Ferny Creek Primary School. Mat is a Brewer himself and donated a keg of his very own blend to be sampled by the public. Mat and Aidan also conducted the events live prize auction and raised over $4,000 for the Ferny Creek Primary School.
Gembrook Pre-School was ‘Kicking Goals’ at their fundraising event, literally! With AFL footy stars, Amazing race, games and prizes and a movie night to inish of the day. Held at Gillwell Park the event attracted many locals to come and have some family fun and raise money for the Pre-School. Ranges First National had their own ‘Colour Me’ board, where everyone was invited to colour in on the large boards or a paper picture to keep and take home.
