We first met Gary Thomas at one of his Auctions in Mooloolaba. We had already listed our home for sale with another prominent agent for Auction, Gary was very professional in his manner and seemed genuine with his well wishes for our own Auction. Unfortunately our house did not attract the premium offers we were expecting from the other agent. We then enlisted Gary’s help and he assured us he would get us that premium price we were after. True to his word the very first buyer Gary brought through purchased our house for $30 000 more than the other agent was able to achieve. Throughout we found Gary’s mannerism very professional and will gladly recommend his services. Next time we will choose Gary first!

Hot Property
Welcome to my very first Blog!
I’d like to chat about one of our hottest listing we currently have available For Sale
Number 10 Bluehaven Court is residential property at its absolute finest. Situated in the “Bokarina Beachcourts”, this is arguably one of the best beachside lifestyle options available. To the uninitiated the Beachcourts are a series of 6 paved cul de sacs in beachside Bokarina that run perpendicular to the beach and culminate in the sand dunes, all have off street parking available and have the rare bonus of a beach access path in each street. Beachside living on the Sunshine Coast
The property we have available for sale is a four bedoom home built by a well known Gold Coast builder in the mid 90’s and is a design quite unique to the area. The home is best described as open plan offering huge living areas and high ceilings with exceptional attention to detail and finish. Despite being approx 15 years old this home has been fastidiously maintained and requires very little work to bring it back to its original glory, maybe some carpet and a coat of paint but not much more.
An added bonus of purchasing this property is the planned future development by Stockland which will be bordering this property, this development sight is a huge draw card for the area and can only be seen as value adding for the entire area.
If you friends or family that you think would benefit from a peaceful beachside lifestyle then you must tell them about 10 BLUEHAVEN COURT, BOKARINA.
Thanks for taking the time and watch out for next weeks Hottie!

Recent Results
Contrary to what you have recently seen or heard the real estate market on the Sunshine Coast is still ticking over, although not at the rate we saw 6 months ago, recent settled sales from Team Godwin have been strong as you can see by the following examples.

11 Bindaree Crescent Mooloolaba sold for $850,000. It is an original 2 bedroom beach shack on 607 metre block with definate development potential, a local builder has purchased to develop at a later date. The position being across the road from the river has made for a great future investment.
5 Lillypilly Place Mooloolaba sold for $635,000. The buyers are expats working in Singapore and are looking at relocating back to the Sunshine Coast in 2 years time. The wife absolutely loved the court living and ambiance of the street and the ability to renovate the home to there own tastes when they return to Australia.
67c Alfriston Drive Buderim sold for $399,000. Local investors brought this property as they saw the potential in the land size of a massive 800 metres plus its presentation and the property alreadt having tenants in place.
This cross section of sales highlighted that Sunshine Coast is still a great place to buy and with combination of local and out of town buyers still active in the market place it is a very resilient market where buyers are seeing value they are still buying.

A Litte bit about Team Godwin - Henzells Mooloolaba....
Hi Everyone,
I would like to introduce myself and also my team members of Team Godwin – Henzells Mooloolaba to you.
My name is Luke Godwin and I have sold real estate on the Sunshine Coast for over 9 years now, I am passionate and excited for the potential of the area and the solid growth that is being achieved on the coast.
While having purchased locally and raising my 2 daughters, my wife and I are enjoying all the life style benefits the Sunshine Coast has to offer. I am also lucky to have many of my family members also calling the Sunshine Coast their home.
I have consistently achieved record sales in all suburbs from The Palms complex at Warana, to Mooloolaba. I pride myself on a hard work and an honest and reliable work ethic that has resulted in a lot of referrals from satisfied clients and their friends.
With the great market strength that Henzells Mooloolaba commands on the coast and the unified network of offices stretching from Pelican Waters, Caloundra, Maleny and of course Mooloolaba, we are in a unique position to satisfy the needs of both the buyer and seller while delivering unbeatable service.
Now enough about me, its time to tell you a little bit about the rest of the members of Team Godwin - Henzells Mooloolaba.
Gary Thomas is a born and bred local. He grew up in the beautiful Caloundra area of the coast and initially chose a career in the hospitality industry, where he learned the art of exceptional customer service. Years spent meeting and working with people from all walks of life has provided Gary with invaluable insight and a level of understanding and respect for people as individuals. We are very lucky to have Gary on our team as he thoroughly enjoys the opportunity he has every day to assist others achieve their dream of buying and selling real estate.
Now for Brett. If you’ve been any sort of a soccer follower over the past 20 years, then Brett Hughes is a name you may have heard of before. Brett has played soccer as a goalkeeper in the National Soccer League (now known as the A League), since he was 16 with clubs including Marconi, Sydney City, Wollongong and Sydney Olympic. Over this time has been involved in 2 Championship wins with Marconi and Sydney Olympic; several Player of the Year Awards, represented NSW and also played in the Youth World Cup in Chile representing Australia. Obviously Brett has a definite “can do” attitude as he would not have been able to accomplish his sporting accomplishments without it and he brings this attitude into his role selling property.
