Why is she selling? This commercial unit in Yarralumla has been so successful for its current owner that her business outgrew the 47 sqm premises, and she had to relocate to Kingston. As a result, the owner is sadly saying goodbye, and we are hoping you say great buy when you bid and own unit 3, 29 Bentham Street Yarralumla.
How to take ownership: Pre-auction offers are not an option as this is not a transparent way to sell, and we want to allow sufficient time to enable you to make your inquiries without threat.
The published reserve is $540,000 - based on an independent valuation. The owner is committed to selling.
Settlement terms are flexible for up to 60 days, and early access to prepare the premises after exchange and before settlement is acceptable.
The auction will be held onsite Saturday, the 28th of October, at 11 a.m. if you register and bid and are successful, we will ask you to pay the deposit ($1000 acceptable on the day) with 10% at risk.
