Free EV to set winning bidder up for success

But one home seller is trying to set a potential first home buyer up for success, offering the lucky purchaser of his Quakers Hill home a free, brand-new, electric vehicle with the sale.

Damian Russell is selling a property at 8 Reef Street through Ray White United Group agent Alex Salameh and with it he is offering a brand new MG4 EV Urban Essence 54 in the buyer’s colour of choice, provided the property reaches the reserve price.

“There are so many pressures of life at the moment. There’s fuel prices and house prices, and the general cost of living,” Mr Russell said.

“I think of myself all those years ago when I bought my first home and I think if something like this was available it would have been a good opportunity.

“I think the property is of good value in the market already, but this is now a house with a backyard and a brand new car.”

With a background in retail, Mr Russell said he knows customers are always looking for value.

“There’s only so much renovating you can do to add value, and the home is fully renovated from every light switch to every power point, it’s basically a new house,” he said.

“So I wanted to do something different to add value to the sale of 8 Reef Street.”

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is set to go under the hammer on May 16 and selling agent Alex Salameh said this was the first time he had ever had an auction like this.
