Melbourne-based Wendy and Steve regularly escaped to Noosa each winter to soak up the sunshine.
After years of holidays, they decided it was time to invest in a place of their own.
Their brief was to find a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment with water views, set in the sought-after Gympie Terrace or Quamby Place precinct.
They wanted a pool, gym, and stair-free access within a quality complex.
With limited stock, intense buyer competition, and such a specific brief, they knew they needed expert local advice and on-the-ground support. Friends in Noosa recommended Home Scouts, and Wendy and Steve engaged us for our full search and acquisition service.
We worked closely with Wendy and Steve to refine their brief and budget. From there, we tapped into our agent network to uncover on-market, pre-market, and off-market opportunities.
Over 7+ months, we inspected numerous apartments, rejecting many that failed to meet the brief or fell short on value. At the same time, we reached out to our holiday property management network, which helped us identify a standout off-market opportunity.
Negotiations with the vendors began, and both parties agreed to obtain independent valuations. With figures varying widely, the sellers ultimately opted to take the property to auction.
When auction day arrived, we represented Wendy and Steve. By combining strategy with calm negotiation, we secured the apartment at a competitive price.

This exclusive pocket is highly sought-after for its lifestyle appeal — swim, shop, dine, or wander through Noosa National Park, all within minutes of home.
In Feb this year, my partner and I decided we would like to purchase a property in the Noosa region. Living in Melbourne it was always going to be difficult to find the right property ourselves. We really needed local knowledge and someone we could trust to not waste our time and stick to the brief.
Friends living in Noosa recommended Bron. We met over coffee and described in detail our dream apartment. I had my heart set on an apartment in the most desirable Quamby Place, having seen how beautiful and quiet it is with incredible water views. Bron listened, took copious notes and offered advice on what we could expect for our budget. Whilst it took 10 months to secure our dream property in Qamby Place, Bron viewed numerous properties on our behalf and reported back with detailed information and videos on each of the properties. Not once did she deviate from our brief. Her local knowledge and relationship with the real estate agents enabled us to often view properties before being listed. I would, without any hesitation, recommend Bron. Her service was extraordinary, both before and after our purchase.
