This property last sold for $540,000 in 2016 and has been ‘neatly renovated’ ahead of Saturday’s auction.

“It’s mainly downsizers and first-home buyers going for this one,” Place Woolloongabba agent Jess Roser says. “It’s a beautifully-presented post-war home and we’ve had a lot of comments about the landscaping front and back.”

The sellers are capitalising on the growth in house prices and selling their home with a view to buying again in six months’ time. They’ll move in with family until then.

Property experts say this is a good financial strategy in the current market. FIND OUT WHY HERE.

The home has natural black butt timber flooring, Cloudburst stone bench tops, and a glass door commercial refrigerator. There is an in-ground swimming pool, a large workshop with in-ceiling storage, and integrated wine fridges. Agent: Ann-Karyn Fraser, Place New Farm; Auctioneer: Paul Curtain

IN-ROOM AUCTION

Land bankers and homeowners looking for a double block will bid at this auction which will be held at Place Bulimba headquarters, 140 Oxford St, Bulimba, instead of onsite due to the rain.

“It’s a great opportunity for someone to add their own value to the property,” Place Bulimba selling agent Paula Pearce says. “You can't remove the house but it can be moved over and that gives the site development possibilities.”

About 20 groups of buyers have inspected the home ahead of the auction. The sellers have used this property as a long-term investment and are ‘just changing direction’. Agents: Paula Pearce and Mikaela Crone, Place Bulimba; Auctioneer: Paul Curtain

ONSITE AUCTION

This apartment was being sold by private treaty, seeking offers over $440,000, but after the first open home, interest was so high it converted to an auction campaign. Three written offers have already been received, one of which is above the reserve price set for Saturday’s auction.

“The main thing for buyers with this one is that it has a double car space,” COCO Beyond Brisbane lead agent Thomas Lee says.

Interested buyers include two women who are currently renting together and intend to share the cost of the property to make it more affordable in the current climate.

The unit is renovated, with fresh paint and new carpets, so it will be shoes off for this auction. It’s also on a main road but the unit is at the back so it’s nice and quiet.

Money guru Mark Bouris' advice for first home buyers

“The sellers have bought up the coast subject to the sale of this so they are very keen to get it sold under the hammer,” Mr Hicks says. “It’s an opportunity for anybody, an investor, a first-home buyer, or even a renovator. It is a very rare opportunity. And the home is in reasonable condition, the building and pest are all okay and the people have lived there for 15 years very comfortably.” This auction will be held in-rooms at Place Bulimba headquarters, 140 Oxford St, Bulimba. Agent: Shane Hicks and Antonio Puopolo, Place Bulimba; Auctioneer: Paul Curtain
