Specialty: Auction & Private Sale | Northcote

Step 1: Understand Your Market

Northcote’s market is driven by location, presentation and amenity. Michael Tomadakis brings more than a decade of local experience—his campaigns focus on what matters most to buyers in today’s market.

Step 2: Choosing the Right Sales Method

• Auction: “Often the best way to create competition in Northcote,” Michael notes. “But the method should suit both the property and the seller’s goals.”
• Private Sale/EOI: Sometimes a quieter sale works better—especially when targeting particular buyer types.

Step 3: The Power of Preparation & Presentation

• Styling, basic repairs and creating a strong first impression can transform outcomes.
