On the road again!

09.08.08. People always have questions about property, even if it’s just a curiosity about what their property is currently worth, but few people pick up the phone to call a real estate agent unless they’re actually buying or selling.

That’s why we have been “on the road again” this week with our popular ‘Kenmore Village Roadshow’ - a unique and exclusive opportunity to provide expert, no-obligation advice to the local community in the setting most convenient to them. Once again, that opportunity was grasped by hundreds of people keen to find out what’s happening in the local area in these uncertain times, and I’m pleased to say that our Award Winning team of local experts were on hand to give clear advise.

We’ve got an absolutely fantastic team here and that’s no accident. Success attracts success and accordingly we’ve attracted very talented people into the fold. Anyone can sell a property, but only highly trained experts can secure a win-win result for buyers and sellers while also minimizing the stress involved for everyone.

And if you are thinking of moving within or into the area, we are pleased to be able to offer an exceptional selection of quality property across the price spectrum. As always, you’ll find our comprehensive list of Open Houses (in time order for your convenience!) at the front of every edition of Open Doors, but if those times are not suitable, please call our toll free hotline on 1300 200 100 to arrange a private viewing at a time more convenient to you.

You’ll also notice a snap shot of each property listed herein alphabetically by suburb. Of course, if you’d like more information about any of the properties, please speak to one of our team and we can provide a full property profile. Alternatively log onto our award winning website at www.century21.com.au/westside where you’ll find a wealth of information, including detailed floor plans for all of Platinum Collection of properties.

Whether you’re buying or selling, we’d love to help you make the Smart Move to the Westside!

Until next week….

A new era dawns

31.07.2008. I alluded to it last week, but it’s now official! I am very pleased to announce the dawning of a new era for CENTURY 21 Westside as Phill Broom and Jocelyn Frost join me as partners in the business from 1st August, 2008. This date marks the third anniversary (to the day!) of Phill joining the business, and many of you would have experienced his exceptional skills and professionalism over that time. Combined with his formal qualifications in banking and finance and his extensive experience in international sales and marketing, Phill’s formidable business acumen offers exciting opportunities for the business moving forward. A native of the Westside, we are thrilled to welcome Jocelyn Frost “back home” after an extraordinarily successful sojourn to Redland Bay when she honed her Real Estate sales skills and became the number one Century 21 agent in Queensland for the past two years. Having also previously run a 350 strong sales team, Jocelyn brings seemingly unlimited drive and enthusiasm to the table, and completes our executive team. At CENTURY 21 Westside, we have always been proud of our point of difference in being a Real Estate Business, rather than just a traditional “cottage industry” style agency. The core of our operation is the business itself, which brings with it all those things that are vital to being an industry-leading business – professional integrity, ongoing training, market expertise, accountability, transparent ethics and profit-sharing. Consequently, we are consistently and extraordinarily successful in achieving the best possible results. And those results extend beyond the happy Buyers and Sellers we help to move, and beyond the accolades afforded are terrific team, to industry and commercial acknowledgement of our successful business practices. In recent times, we have been honoured to receive acknowledgement from: the Quest Business Achievers Awards (Finalists for the last 4 years and Winners in 2005 and 2007); the BRW Fast Starters List (Top 100 in 2008); and the REIQ Top Agency of the Year (Finalist in 2008). So, together with our exceptional team of professionals, Phill, Jocelyn and I look forward to helping you make your next move a Smart Move. Until next week…..
