Comments on 20 Kintore Street CAMBERWELL

This is a real rating with private client details removed. Little is in the building section as most was to be changed. The feasibility and visits and builder quotes were all done within a week prior to possible purchase, but our clients decided not to buy. Links to all below.

Dear??
 
What a whirlwind of a relationship and due diligence from the letter you sent last week.
 
Firstly, I’m available to meet tonight to discuss the buy/sell. But here are three big-picture issues: (adding to our phone convo - let's meet another time to discuss finding a home)
 
Process
 
Believe it or not, you are the decision-makers—I simply guide the process, offering options, strategies, and execution.
 
Big Picture 1
 
The key to this lies in the renovation, not the buy or sell price. Those figures are just the icing on the cake—or the soufflé that flopped. Either way, you still have dessert.
 
Kintore is a great opportunity, and you have the street smarts to make it work—I can feel that now, and the builder we referred you too agrees.
 
I think a four-car basement should be on your consideration list. If not, then parking next to the house is key, as you mentioned.
 
The next key is great consultants. Spend hours and hours making good hires—if you don’t hire often, let me assure you, the difference between good and bad hires is huge. Get great interiors, great architects, great builders…
 
Big Picture 2
 
What do you really, really want? Do you want a massive, life-affecting, life-changing project?
 
You’re in a good home—you could spend the money on investments, travel, or an easier exchange. But, granted, it would never be Kintore. It’s rare.
 
You could also look for another home already done - use your smarts to buy and sell well
 
Big Picture 3
 
If you decide you want this, and if you feel I can help, that would be great.
 
On the buy—two things:
 
We may well be buying post-auction, after a pass-in, but there could also be competition. This is a good development.
 
Most people can tell when someone is lying, but when people (aka agents) are telling the truth, experience helps you recognise it.
