For vendors Marcus Ward and Su Jing (pictured above left, with Mr Ersan, right), selling their home during the COVID-19 pandemic was seen more as an opportunity, and they lauded the work of Surry Hills Director Ercan Ersan for the sale.
“Ercan was absolutely fantastic throughout. He brought together a team of both painters and electricians that allowed us to undertake some renovations in the kitchen and bathrooms in just two weeks to get the property ready to sell,” Marcus said.
“Ercan recommended now was the time to sell to take advantage of low stock and that timing made a big difference - we had lots of interest and the price exceeded our expectations.
“Selling during COVID-19 actually made it exciting because it gave us the chance to take on the negative speculation and Ercan and the team helped us defy all of that speculation.
“Ercan’s communication was wonderful and he attracted such a variety of buyers which gave us the opportunity to pivot throughout the campaign - we’re very happy with the outcome.”

“This was an exceptional result for our vendors and it shows how strong the market is in the Inner West of Sydney right now - they’re rightly delighted with the outcome,” Mr Ersan said.
“The campaign itself was incredibly active with over 100 groups coming through the open homes and we also issued 14 contracts - such was the interest in this property.
“That translated into four of the six registered bidders competing on the day as the price flew through its reserve - the sale also smashed the highest offer prior to auction of $1,500,000.”
