Kate Vines
Director
“If I wouldn’t buy it for a family member, I wouldn’t buy it for a client”
After completing a Bachelor of Planning & Design (Property & Construction) at the University of Melbourne, Kate established her expertise in real estate working in residential property valuations before making the move into property advisory.
Having advised both homebuyers and investors, Kate is able to work with her clients to understand their property purchasing objectives and work within any particular parameters they may have. Kate will help guide you through the property selection process and make sure you secure that investment property or your dream family home for the best possible price. By keeping you fully informed along the way, you’ll have a far better understanding of the process as well.
Kate’s valuation experience is particularly relevant as she understands that paying too much for property is not only something that no one wants to do, but can lead to difficulties with finance if the bank valuation does not add up. Thorough research and assessment of each property is undertaken as a matter of due diligence in order to make sure none of her clients find themselves in this situation.
Whether it be buying a property at auction or negotiating a pass-in or private sale, Kate is well versed in all things real estate. Kate's negotiating skills and in depth knowledge of the market are also invaluable when it comes to securing off market properties.
Kate holds a Bachelor of Planning & Design (Property & Construction) and a Certificate IV in Property Services (Real Estate).
