Melbourne home owners John and Kerryn Payne put their 100 per cent faith in Daniel Diamantopoulos.
And he delivered in spades.
Despite the second lockdown, it was smiles all around at 1 Crawley Court, Craigieburn in Melbourne recently which sold for $537,000 after a strong marketing campaign with young gun agent and auctioneer Daniel Diamantopoulos of Ray White Craigieburn. “We were anxious but we trusted Daniel and listened to him and followed the process,” said Mr Payne who is a Beyond Blue speaker and SANE Peer ambassador.
Mr Payne is a mental health advocate who wrote a book called What My Eyes Have Seen after his time as a Country Fire Authority firefighter.He says he struggled with PTSD after Black Saturday in 2009 which ravaged parts of Victoria.
“I had to hang up my boots from the CFA but I want to help others who struggle with depression. We built our home in 1992 and it was a wonderful place for us, lots of happy memories. Now we are effectively downsizing empty-nesters and we are going to have a tree-change.Our son has acreage some 45mins away and we are going to build a house for us on his land.”
There were 11 registered bidders tuned in to the online auction and at least half of them were active in the spirited auction. Mr Payne thanked the Ray White Craigieburn team for all their help.
“Daniel is such an experienced operator so we listened to his advice. He give 100 per cent and has the utmost care and compassion.” Mr Diamantopoulos said the house was so popular as there was still not much stock for sale, and a lot of buyers are looking.
Compassion and care wins
