I’m with davjp, sell the thing yourself – I sold my last 2 properties without an agent.

Use the $10,000 you save on a car or nice holiday’

Melinda or Quinten from Hodgkinson Real Estate are very good. Melinda specialises in Rural and has sold lots in Murrumbateman. http://www.hodgkinsonrealestate.com.au/about/staff/melinda/

I thought $1m+ was entry level first home buyers type territory nowadays.

Luton Properties Kippax have experience at the top end and with rural small acreages. Call and ask for Ben or Brian.

Sell it yourself, real estate agents are over rated. I have sold 3 houses now all privately and the $30,000+ I have saved is better in my pocket.

Edge Real Estate is one of my clients, and I know the director, Steve Thomas, well. Steve’s had several million-dollar-plus sales, and quite a few near-million too the last few years. I am quite sure he’d be able to assist.

Yes I am an agent, however a colleague of mine has sold 3 $1m+ sales this year with you discription. One in Hall and 2 in Googong. As an agency we have also sold 10+ million dollar sales this year. Call Mcgrath Estate Agents. Ask for Justin or Nic.
