West Pennant Hills
Although the suggestion for a ‘sellers advocate’ sounded wise to me as I contemplated the process of selling my home, with the offer of practical help and solutions through lots of obstacles, I could not have imagined the enormity of help, caring and understanding I received from SPACE.
Tracey and Julie were at hand throughout all my ‘silly concerns’; they offered me choices with wise recommendations, they understood the emotional journey of a tremendous life change and dealt professionally with all that needed to be done. Their assessment of best course of action has great knowledge of the market as well as skilled understanding of the process of letting go of a well-loved home. I would have been left with very little knowledge of how to manoeuvre through all that should be done. Instead, tradespeople were organised and managed with amazing timing and anything urgent dealt with. They were always available to me, no matter the time of day, they communicated progress and managed must-do tasks. They updated all progress through the agent and in all ways carried my load through the whole selling process.
I am extremely thankful for both Julie and Tracey and cannot recommend SPACE. highly enough to anyone selling their home. I am certain the price achieved for me would not have been possible without the professional help of SPACE.
Thank you Tracey and Julie.

I had never heard of a sellers agent/advocate until I was referred to Julie. All I can say is thank goodness. Julie is amazing. She turned what could have been a difficult and stressful process in a smooth and streamlined experience. Engaging and easy to deal with, Julie was committed to helping us achieve the best price for our home. She arranged potential agents to inspect the property, she co-ordinated trades and home stylists and worked closely with our nominated real estate agent to make sure the house was sparkling for every open house. And yes it is true, there is no cost to engage Julie's services (I'll leave it to her to explain how she works). She is like your very own Mary Poppins. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking to sell their home. It will be the best decision you make.

Julie was our saviour, when we needed to sell mum and dads home of 60 years. Having Julie lead the process for my brothers and I was great. With none of us living in Sydney, she was able to guide and manage the process and take away the stress of the situation. Guidance on how to approach presenting the house, which needed some attention and where to spend money for the greatest impact and return and invaluable. In the final stages of the sale, being realistic and pragmatic about acceptance of offers and working the system was enormously beneficial. I felt as though we were her focus throughout and we were thrilled with the outcome. Julie has my highest recommendation.

I was selling a sydney property while I live 7hrs away. Julie was my eyes and ears and ran the sale beautifully. I don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t have that service. Julie is a legend.
Howe Family Clareville
Following the death of our father, we had to deal with the emotional sale of our parents’ home. With 5 different people involved (4 siblings and our mother), it seemed like a daunting task. Enter Julie - who was quickly able to take control and provide much needed guidance on how to best present the home for sale, while being mindful of keeping costs down. She advised on what items should stay and go, was able to access tradespeople at very reasonable prices, and we quickly had the home looking fresh and inviting for the opens. Throughout the campaign, Julie provided valuable insights into the real estate market (which changed dramatically in a short period of time) while keeping the agents accountable. Julie was an absolute pleasure to deal with, and took a lot of the stress out of the whole sale process, especially with so many parties involved. We would highly recommend using Julie’s services when selling a home - there is simply no downside.

Julie was with me the all the way but the key was right at the end she negotiated a much better outcome than what the real estate agent wanted me to accept. Thank you.

Julie was exceptional.
She kept us informed every step of the way. She spoke to real estate agents in our area and then prepared a short list for us to interview with her. Having chosen the real estate agent she then negotiated with him the details of the sales strategy, undoubtedly significantly improving it. Julie always had our best interests first and foremost in her mind. At the end of the process she suggested that one final approach be made to the two highest bidders resulting in us receiving significantly more for our house. Julie has a wonderful personality and easy to work with but most importantly is professional and totally trustworthy I would never sell a house without her acting as my broker.

Real estate is not my profession and Julie took me through the whole process from how to set up the house right until final settlement. A fabulous service and Julie is brilliant!

I couldn’t be happier with the services provided by Julie and her team and I would never sell a house without using Space again. I highly recommend them. My home was an older style home and had been rented for some time. The work and advice they gave me made it look amazing and definitely helped to get a great result and a quick sale. They managed all the works that were done by my own trades and I was able to tap into their contacts as well. They helped choose the best agent for the property and were hands on throughout the whole sale process, making me feel confident that we realised the best price possible. They literally took away all the stress involved in selling a house. I had never heard about a Seller’s Advocate before they were referred to me, now I suggest to everyone to not sell without one.

Julie acted as our Vendor's agent for a property in Balmain. We couldn't have done it without her, and frankly would not have done it without her! She handled everything - selecting an agent, open homes and minor improvements. When it all became stressful and difficult, Julie removed our stress. She helped us understand the pros and cons of each decision, and helped us communicate with our rightly motivated agent. We couldn't be happier with the result that was achieved - the highest price per square metre of land in the suburb!! Thank you so much, Julie. We recommend you to everyone and will continue to!

The prospect of selling a home we had just renovated and worked so incredibly hard on was very frightening as we had been through so much to get the house where it was. There was too much at stake, so much emotion and too much to organise given that we were relocating interstate and anxiety levels were through the roof. When a friend put me in touch with Julie and explained that there was no cost involved to me and after hearing a convincing argument as to how Julie could help us, I was immediately relieved and knew I had nothing to lose.
This is a full service for anyone needing a little or a lot of help in selling their home. Julie is calm in the face of a storm and highly attuned to the property market. She held our hands during the entire process.
We moved our family out of the house to the other side of Sydney during the campaign and Julie took over from there ensuring that the property was perfect for every inspection. We couldn’t have been happier with the result we achieved.
After selling and moving to the buying side and viewing so many properties over the past 12 months I can see how many sellers would benefit from this service which really is a full- time job if you want to achieve the best outcome. I put a friend of mine in touch with Julie as she was unable to know what or who to believe and was truly struggling and alone in selling her home.
After the sale of her property she called me to thank me and said that there was absolutely no doubt Julie helped her to achieve a better result than she would have otherwise and that anyone who is not a selling expert should hire this service. Julie came into her own in this situation to ensure everyone stayed honest and that all shoulders were put to the wheel.

After having Julie handle our sale the simplest thing I can say is that I would never sell any other way. Julie handled everything, preparing our home for sale to dealing with agents. Julie is an outstanding negotiator, you will want her in your corner to achieve the best possible outcome.

Now that I understand the exceptional service offered by a sellers advocate I would never sell a home without it. I am in awe of how Julie and Tracey were able to get us organised in a really short period of time. They were quickly and efficiently able to organise trades to come in and help us present out home and we were delighted with the outcome. They communicated with us and our agent throughout the whole process in a professional and courteous manner and really took all the worry out of what can be a stressful situation. We were so pleased to have a quick sale in a difficult market and we can't thank them enough. Julie and Tracey deserve the highest praise and I am so happy to recommend their service.

Tracey and the team helped to get our house ready for sale and provided advice on the whole sales process. We ended up getting a record sale price for the area and couldn't have been more grateful for their expertise. I would highly recommend them to anyone selling their home.

Julie professionally negotiated the sale of our house in Sydney while we were living over 1,000 kilometres away. Julie negotiated with local real estate agents to secure the best agent for us and from thereon in, dealt with the agent regarding all aspects of the sale. Julie ensured the house was ready for sale and communicated regularly with us as to the progress of the campaign. Julie successfully negotiated a price we were happy with to conclude a no-stress sales process. We highly recommend Julie for her professionalism and her excellent knowledge of real estate.

Julie and her team were amazing throughout the process of selling our family home following the death of our father. She helped prepare the house for sale, organised trades, negotiated with agents to get the best possible deal and generally took a lot of the stress out of the whole sale process. We highly recommend using Julie's services when selling a home - there is simply no downside.

"We recently partnered with Julie Buchanan from Space and overall, it was an excellent experience. Julie worked tirelessly behind the scenes with the owners to convince them not only to move out of the home for the sale but also to spruce it up and do a minor renovation to make it more marketable and most importantly to maximise the price for them. She took the pressure off us and allowed us to do what we do best which is trying to get as much interest as possible and sell the home for the highest price. She was present before we showed every buyer through to open the house, giving it a vacuum and a general once over. This was a huge help and value added to both us and the vendor. Julie’s attention to detail is second to none and nothing is too much trouble. We have no hesitation in recommending Julie to any prospective client who wants to have an independent third party guide them through the process of selling all the way from agent selection to preparing the home for sale and advice from start to finish."
