As the year draws to a close we’d like to wish our clients and friends a wonderful, safe and enjoyable Christmas and holiday season from everyone here at Established Property.

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with our many clients. We’ve had some exciting auctions and great sales amid a difficult year for the wider Australian property market. We’ve also celebrated the one year anniversary of our rebranding and we’re excited about what the new year will bring for our team and our many clients.

As we prepare to wind down, we’re sharing with you some of our blogs to give you ideas for enjoying the festive season and school holidays, plus some quick, helpful reads if you’re thinking of selling in 2023.
