We begin with you.

The process starts with a relaxed conversation about what you are hoping to achieve.

Simone may ask about:

• Why you are considering a new apartment

• Your preferred Gold Coast locations

• Your approximate budget
  The type and size of apartment you need

• Your desired purchase or moving timeframe

• Whether you are buying to live, invest or use as a holiday property

• Any developments you are already considering

• Your most important questions or concerns

This conversation helps Simone understand what matters most before discussing particular properties.

Turn your priorities into a clearer brief.

Simone will bring your requirements together into a focused property brief.

This helps distinguish the features you genuinely need from those that may be flexible.

It also reduces the likelihood of spending time reviewing unsuitable apartments or being overwhelmed by every development currently being promoted.

Focus on what is relevant to you.

Drawing on her market experience and industry relationships, Simone can introduce suitable new, completed, under-construction, off-the-plan and selected pre-release apartments across the Gold Coast.

Leonard Property is not limited to promoting one development.

The aim is to present a considered selection of opportunities that align with your property brief.

Understand the differences that matter.

Simone will help you compare relevant features such as:

• Developer and builder experience

• Location and surrounding amenity

• Floor-plan functionality

• Apartment position within the building

• Aspect, outlook and natural light

• Potential view considerations

• Finishes and inclusions

• Building facilities

• Estimated body corporate costs

• Deposit requirements

• Anticipated construction and completion timing

• Potential owner-occupier or tenant appeal

Where information is unavailable or requires specialist advice, Simone will make that clear.

Take a closer look before proceeding.

Once you have identified a preferred property, Simone can help you consider the opportunity in greater detail.

This may include discussing:

• The strengths and limitations of the floor plan

• Alternative apartments within the development

• Pricing and current availability

• Deposit structure

• Expected completion timing

• Relevant project documentation

• Questions to raise with the developer or project representative

• The next steps in obtaining legal and financial advice

You will always be encouraged to obtain independent legal, financial and taxation advice before signing a contract.

Move forward with confidence

When you decide to proceed, Simone can help coordinate communication with the relevant developer or appointed project sales team.

She can explain the general next steps, help ensure the appropriate documentation is provided and remain available as the purchase progresses.

The decision to buy is always yours.

Leonard Property’s role is to help you feel informed and supported, not pressured.

The relationship continues.

Off-the-plan purchases may involve a significant period between signing the contract and receiving the keys.

Simone remains available throughout this time and may assist with:

• Communication and project updates

• General construction milestone information

• Preparing for finance and valuation requirements

• Pre-settlement information

• Property-management introductions

• Furniture and styling referrals

• Short-term or long-term letting introductions

• Preparing for a future move to the Gold Coast

You will continue to know who to call whenever you have a question.
