At First National, we appreciate you have a choice when it comes to who you entrust to represent your property.  On a daily basis, we demonstrate professionalism, experience and commitment to our clients. Our goal is now to prove why you don’t need to look any further.

Under the careful management and guidance of passionate business owners Chris and Kerrie Rowbottom, Engage Property and Dowling Eastlakes have joined forces with a National brand.

We are proud to be a part of the First National Network under First National Engage Eastlakes.

This merger will benefit both our Property Management clients and Property Sales services in the greater Lake Macquarie and Newcastle regions, as well as Australia wide. With many buyers and tenants now relying on sea change and tree change lifestyles, First National has a network of over 280 offices nationally that we can leverage clients from, and a digital coverage that will gain greater exposure for our client’s property.

Choosing an agent is much more than striking a deal on fees. Marketing skills, strategy and negotiation ability will strongly influence your final price. At First National, we have access to in-depth training for our teams, systems within marketing that will impact stronger coverage for our clients and standards that will enable us to achieve greater outcomes and results, with consistency in all our achievements.  

We are a specialised agency and our primary objective is to provide the highest level of customer service and satisfaction to all members of our community. We have developed a reputation as industry leaders of Property Sales and Property Management services in the Greater Lake Macquarie and Newcastle regions. Our team consists of highly motivated professional sales staff and dedicated administrative support. Our entire team is dedicated to providing superior services to all clients we interact with.

All senior staff are experienced real estate agents and are fully accredited in real estate practice, price negotiations and marketing. Ongoing training of all staff is undertaken to ensure an up to date understanding of all contract transactions. We are bound by the professional ethics of the Real Estate Institute and the Department of Fair Trading. At all times we maintain an accurate database of client contacts, this information is treated with the utmost confidentiality in accordance with industry standard privacy guidelines.

At First National Engage Eastlakes, we put you first. Real connections, real results are our utmost priority.

Appraisal Request
 

CONTRACT

Contains the terms and conditions of the sale. You should organise for your legal representative to review the contract prior to signing it. We cannot sell the property subject to a conveyancer or solicitor perusing the paperwork. Any variations to special conditions must be agreed to by the vendor’s representative.

VENDOR’S STATEMENT

Also known as the “Section 32” and contained within the Contract. This contains everything the buyer is required to know about the property (outgoings, building approvals, title etc). The equivalent of a road worthy certificate for a property.

COOLING OFF PERIOD

Once an offer is accepted and a .25% deposit is paid, the buyer generally has 5 business days to withdraw their offer to purchase. There is no cooling-off period when you buy at auction.

AUCTION CONDITIONS

There is no cooling off period when you buy at auction. If the property passes in and sold on the same day as the auction up until 12am the contract is still under auction conditions and therefore not subject to a cooling off period.

DEPOSIT

A deposit is taken by the Agent on the signing of the Contract. Usually 10% of the purchase price unless otherwise negotiated. The deposit is held in trust by the Agent and cannot be released until agreed to by the purchaser’s and vendor’s solicitor.

FIXTURES & CHATTELS

Fixtures are things that are permanently attached to the land so as to become part of the land. Chattels are things that are not part of the land. When land is sold, all fixtures (the house, and things permanently attached to the house) will pass to the Purchaser as part of the land. 

If a chattel is to be included in the sale, it must be specifically listed in the Contract. If a fixture is to be removed from the property by the Vendor and therefore not included in the sale, then this must be specifically mentioned in the Contract.

SETTLEMENT PERIOD

An agreed time frame between purchase and the buyer taking possession or in the case of the property being tenanted, entitled to receipts of rents and profits. There is no such thing as a common settlement period - this depends upon the vendor’s situation, anticipated price range and type of property. Settlement terms can range from 30 days to even 150 or 180 days. It is recommended that you discuss your preferred settlement early with your agent.

SETTLEMENT

The buyer pays the balance of the purchase price and picks up the keys. Settlement is handled between your solicitor and the purchaser’s solicitor.

ADJUSTMENTS

The purchase price of the property is “adjusted” to allow for expenses that have been paid in advance or are owing at settlement. In other words, it is the seller’s responsibility to pay the rates and all statutory fees and outgoings until settlement.

STAMP DUTY

A government tax based on the sale price of a property.
