About East Melbourne
East Melbourne is next to the Fitzroy Gardens and close to the MCG and the city. Terrace houses and apartments dominate, so owners corporation and heritage issues come up frequently. Planning and heritage rules are set by the local council, so it is worth checking them early.
Buyers advocate in East Melbourne
If you are buying in East Melbourne, I search for you, inspect, research comparable sales, check the title and overlays, and negotiate or bid at auction on your behalf. I work only for the buyer, so there is no conflict with the selling agent.
- Property search and shortlisting against your brief
- Research on comparable sales and what a property is realistically worth
- Auction bidding or private-sale negotiation, within the limit we agree
- Access to off-market opportunities where they suit your brief
Vendor advocate in East Melbourne
If you are selling in East Melbourne, I can act as your vendor advocate: helping you choose and manage the agent, test the pricing and campaign, and protect your position through to sale.
Things to look out for when buying in East Melbourne
- For apartments and townhouses, read the owners corporation records closely: fees, special levies, maintenance plans and any disputes.
- Terrace houses and converted warehouses can carry heritage controls and noise or access issues that are easy to miss on a short inspection.
