Recent purchases
Not testimonials. Receipts.
Real properties we've bought for real clients: the suburb, the number, the outcome. Some off-market, some in the middle of a bidding war, all on the buyer's side of the deal. The house is the outcome. The number is the product.
The Art Deco house the last agent couldn't get them
A four-bed Art Deco home its condition scared other buyers away from. We read it differently: medical-professional rental appeal, projected to more than double over ten years.
“Aaron was nothing short of outstanding throughout the entire home buying process.”
Bought before it ever hit the market, leased in five days
A Perth investor wanted a premium Newcastle asset under $1.25M without flying over to look. We secured a 3-bed, 2-bath townhouse off-market for $1.23M. Tenanted at $950/week within five days.
$140,000 of equity the day the keys changed hands
Bought for $910,000 in a suburb everyone wanted a piece of. Bank-valued at around $1.05M straight after. The gap was the product.
“Worth every cent and more. Wish I did it sooner!”
The $150,000 that bought them a bigger forever home
A professional couple were choosing between their forever home in premium Adelaide now, or investing first and buying bigger later. We told them to wait on Adelaide. Ten months later the bank valued the investment $150,000 above what they paid.
“The strategy gave us clarity, confidence and a much better long-term outcome.”
A five-bedroom pool home, won on terms not price
A buyer who had relocated to Newcastle from overseas wanted a premium home without overpaying in a market they were still new to. We read the window: a tightly held market mid-contraction, stacked with similar stock. Then we won it on terms, the funds and confirmed sale the seller needed to move on their own home, instead of a bigger number.
A $10M+ portfolio's next generational asset
An investor with a $10M+ portfolio wanted preservation, not just growth. We found a four-bed in Raymond Terrace, owner-occupier territory with tight supply, at $790,000 returning $780/week.
“I never felt pressured to buy, and in the end I achieved exactly the result I wanted.”
A $6M portfolio expanded in ten days, from the couch
A client needed a strategic buy inside ten days without overpaying. We closed in South Australia for $690K in a week and a half, remotely, start to finish.
“I easily saved twice their fee without ever leaving my house.”
A Sydney investor's duplex, chosen while they worked
A busy Sydney professional wanted growth and yield in Newcastle without doing the legwork. A Cameron Park duplex around $700K, roughly 5% yield, positioned for the long climb.
“They really knew the market and took care of everything. I couldn't be happier with the result.”
A first property that took a month, not a year
A young Sydney professional had spent months getting nowhere in Newcastle. We secured a four-bed in Mayfield for $860,000 with cosmetic and second-bathroom upside built in.
“After many months of disappointment, Aaron helped me secure an outstanding property in under a month.”
Manly lifestyle, Newcastle numbers
A high-income Sydney buyer wanted regional growth without leaving the beaches. A $730K Cardiff investment, geared for around 120% growth over ten years.
“Professional, attentive, and highly communicative, making our purchase seamless and completely stress-free.”
Rent-vesting done right, hands-off
A time-poor Sydney renter wanted a Newcastle growth asset without the research grind. We found and bought a well-located Waratah home, search to settlement.
“Couldn't be happier with the experience.”
Four years of searching, done in two months
A Sydney buyer kept losing in the tight Freshwater unit market. We used the off-market network to find one that combined lifestyle and long-term value.
“After 4 years of searching and the market getting out of reach, MacKenzie helped me purchase within 2 months.”
A Torrens-title semi, off-market, no bidding war
A family wanted back into the Northern Beaches market: low stock, high demand. We located a Torrens-title semi in Cromer off-market and secured it at fair value, no public competition.
“They know what they are doing and they do it well.”
Bought while the client skied in Japan
A Sydney buyer wanted a Dee Why apartment but was overseas and short on time. We negotiated and secured a contemporary unit around $705K, end-to-end, while they travelled.
“Worth the money if you are busy or find the entire process of buying overwhelming.”
An off-market deal the client could never have found alone
An SMSF investor capped at $650K with no local knowledge. We sourced an off-market four-bed in Dubbo, tenant secured quietly, at $680/week.
“Couldn't have accessed this deal or outcome on my own. Worth every cent.”
A tradie in his early 20s, first investment
A FIFO worker splitting time across three states wanted a low-maintenance growth asset. A 3-bed brick house near Nowra for $605,000, around 5% yield, two hours from Sydney.
“Genuinely about helping people get into the market and achieve their goals.”
From first home to two properties in 18 months
A returning client, a schoolteacher, came back ready to build. A proposed strata levy had scared other buyers off; our due diligence turned it into a price reduction. A Newcastle unit for $615,000 at $680 a week.
“I've used Aaron for all of my property purchases, and he's been outstanding every time.”
A scarce beachside unit, in a blue-chip pocket
A Sydney investor wanted growth, yield and lifestyle upside. We used a negotiation edge to secure a scarce Merewether unit for $705,000 at $650 a week.
“Made the whole process easy, handled everything while I ran my business. Worth every cent.”
A doctor's first buy, done remotely
An out-of-area doctor wanted to invest conservatively without local visibility. A Cameron Park townhouse for $845,000 balancing growth, yield and broad tenant demand, around a 4.6% yield.
“I felt informed, supported and confident with their advice despite buying remotely.”
A conveyancer's sub-$600k buy, tenanted and under value
A conveyancer we work with wanted high yield near Sydney with no hassle. A tenanted three-bed in Raymond Terrace for $582,000 at $560 a week, under the area's typical value.
“I truly appreciate Aaron's honesty, patience, and expertise.”
Bought on a private inspection, tenancy kept in place
An investor wanted upside with little downside. We secured a Metford house on a private inspection, kept the existing $730-a-week tenancy, and bought into a gentrifying Hunter pocket.
“We are very happy with the outcome and I will give your details to my friends and colleagues.”
A third buy with a clear path to a 4-2-2
A third acquisition with strict criteria: growth plus room to add value. A brick-veneer Thornton house with multiple ways to manufacture equity and a future four-bed, two-bath, two-car layout.
“Exactly what we were chasing. Strategy and execution both delivered.”
A depreciating villa, leased from day one
A third portfolio buy needing tax efficiency and immediate income. A near-new Lochinvar villa for $725,000, leased from day one, positioned ahead of the corridor's population surge.
“Easy decision to come back again. Results keep stacking up.”
A returning investor's fourth, without breaking serviceability
An experienced investor came back to keep expanding. We ruled out Victoria on land tax and weaker yields, then found a corner-block house in a government-backed NSW growth corridor with future granny-flat upside.
A first buy built for family and returns
A high-income family balancing returns, flexibility and a future home. A growth asset near Sydney at $1,045,000, liquid and depreciation-rich, bought for the long game.
“I could not be happier with the experience.”
A set-and-forget SMSF asset, bought under pre-approval
A returning client needed a low-maintenance asset for the long hold in their SMSF. We secured a renovated three-bed for $699,000, comfortably under their $800,000 pre-approval.
