Spring Buyers Kicking Goals in the East

While all eyes are on the MCG this Saturday, the eastern suburbs market is putting in a premiership-worthy performance, with Barry Plant Eastern Group recording 32 reported sales* this week.

Open homes are well attended, auctions are competitive, and buyers are ready to move when the price is right. In Manningham, we've sold 27% more than our nearest competitor over the last three months*.

Quality family homes remain in hot demand, and first home buyers are back in force, many using a 5% deposit to get in sooner. Well-priced, first-home-friendly properties are performing strongly.

It's still a price-sensitive market, so strategy wins. Price it right, present it well, and put it in front of the strongest pool of buyers, and the market will do the rest.

Premierships aren't won by chance, and neither are great sale results. As one of Victoria's largest privately owned real estate groups, Barry Plant Eastern Group is here to help you win yours.
