Under a sole agency the agent is obligated to expose your apartment to the company’s collaborative sales force, extensive buyer pool, and extended media reach.

Sale by Auction is the most aggressive way to position your investment. City Sales has developed a particular style of apartment auction which colleague agents have generously described as “the best show in town”. Auctions are performed in our new Auction Rooms, Hopetoun Alpha, an original Greek church now a function centre, and the hustle and bustle generated tends to calm those frayed nerves evident in a sterile auction room.The results are often a jovial atmosphere and a willingness to bid from "lookers" who are often too intimidated to buy at auction. Many sales are reached from buyers who trust us and have never viewed the property.
