Ep136: Sam Gamon - The Benefits of Selling Through Winter

Usually Melbourne winters cool down the real estate market. With a lack of leaves on the trees, colour in the garden, shoes required to be taken off at the open for inspections and rain coming from all directions, most don't see it as an optimal time to be selling their biggest asset. Yet with a lack of property on the market, and those looking to settle before Christmas, those who choose to sell their properties on the market seem to be able to get a sale price that's beyond their expectations. So today's podcast is all about the benefits of selling through winter.

Not many agents have this long list of attributes that make them a top agent. A 4th generation agent who has made it to the Top 100 Real Estate Agents in Australia 4 times with REA, was Top 10 in Victoria in 2021 and sells over $100 million in property every year. He's a 5 times suburb winner for Elwood on RateMyAgent, a finalist in REIV Senior Auctioneers competition and has recent sales of a $7.25 million home in Elwood, a $4.25 million home and a $3.82 million home. Welcome Sam Gamon from Chisholm & Gamon.
