When Catherine Lawler met the owner of 73 Sutherland Street, Cremorne, she quickly recognised that he needed more than a standard sales campaign. At 84, he was preparing to combine three properties into one and required a smooth, private transition due to his public profile. Catherine arranged for a buyer’s agent who secured his next home within three weeks, allowing him to relocate before the sale. With Konstantin Melnikov supporting the process, they launched a discreet off‑portal strategy, understanding the home’s heavily furnished and cluttered condition made traditional presentation unnecessary and potentially costly.

Focusing on qualified buyers, Catherine and Kon generated 134 enquiries, 52 inspections, five private viewings, and 11 contracts issued, ultimately attracting a family living directly behind the property who saw the signboard and acted quickly. The property sold off‑portal for $3,660,000, avoiding the need for painting, styling, or a full campaign. The vendor was pleased with both the price and the efficiency of the process, praising the team for their professionalism, clear communication, and support throughout the transition. His generous testimonial says it all: 

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Catherine and Kon. They went above and beyond, providing valuable referrals to help prepare my home for sale and supporting me in finding my new property. Their service was professional, efficient, and made the entire selling process as stress-free as possible. They were always prompt, transparent with their reports, and successfully achieved the price we were hoping for.” 

This experience is a powerful reminder of how thoughtful guidance, genuine care, and strategic planning can deliver outcomes that exceed expectations.
