  • EP. 1460 – TENDER vs EOI (Expression of Interest)
    Jun 29 2025

    The mysterious world of high-end property selling tactics revealed! Ever wondered what those "Expression of Interest" or "Tender" labels really mean when you're browsing multi-million dollar listings? We're pulling back the curtain on these powerful but misunderstood sales methods that dominate the premium property market.

    Most homeowners never encounter these specialized approaches, but when property values climb above $3-4 million—particularly for development sites, commercial, and industrial properties—these strategic methods can generate extraordinary results. The difference between EOI and Tender isn't just technical jargon; it represents fundamentally different approaches to extracting maximum value from high-stakes property transactions.

    Through revealing case studies, we share how one property owner nearly accepted a direct offer of $10.3 million before our team implemented a structured 10-day tender process that ultimately achieved $12 million—an additional $1.7 million in the seller's pocket. We explore the psychological dynamics that make these methods so effective and why your neighbor is probably the worst potential buyer for your development site, despite what conventional wisdom suggests.

    For property owners considering selling premium assets, this episode delivers concrete strategies to maximize your result. And for curious property enthusiasts, you'll gain insider knowledge about how the biggest real estate deals actually happen behind closed doors. Hit subscribe to ensure you never miss our insights into Australia's complex property landscape!

  • EP. 1457 42 Years in the same home, now what? Tale of the Sale
    Jun 24 2025

    Helping someone move from a home they've lived in for 42 years isn't just another property transaction—it's navigating a profound life transition filled with emotion, practical challenges, and family dynamics.

    Josh Wapshott takes us deep into the heart of what he calls "golden sales," those deeply rewarding moments helping long-term homeowners find their next perfect living situation. Through the story of residents from Davidson-Belrose who made the decision to leave their family home after four decades, we uncover the specific triggers that finally convince people it's time for a change. From managing steep driveways that become impossible obstacles to the surprising power of staying within your familiar suburb, Josh reveals the real considerations that matter most when elderly Australians contemplate their next move.

    What's particularly fascinating is the fierce loyalty long-term residents show to their local areas. As Josh explains, "They know their doctors, they know their shops, they know their neighbours." This connection often proves stronger than the attachment to the physical home itself, with most refusing to consider options more than a suburb away from their established community. The Belrose Collection presented the perfect solution for these homeowners—allowing them to maintain their sense of place while gaining essential accessibility features like lift access, level entries, and proximity to transport and shopping.

    The decision rarely happens in isolation. We discover how these transitions typically evolve into family affairs, with adult children stepping in to research options, advocate for their parents, and ensure the next home truly meets their changing needs. If you're helping elderly parents navigate this significant life change, or if you're considering such a move yourself, this episode offers valuable insights into making the process as smooth and positive as possible. Call us anytime with questions about helping your loved ones find their perfect next chapter.
