[Leigh McConnon](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/blog/author/leigh-mcconnon) Oct 6, 2026 --- **Buyers Advocate Examples** ### A returning client finds their next home There’s no better endorsement than a client choosing to work with us again. A previous client recently returned to Buyers Advocate for assistance with their next owner-occupier purchase. While the search initially focused on Bayside, it ultimately led to Hawthorn East, where Buyers Advocate Leigh McConnon successfully represented the client in securing a fantastic three-bedroom home. **![](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-30-29-8964-AM.png?width=763&height=513&name=image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-30-29-8964-AM.png)** ### The property The successful purchase was a spacious two-storey home offering three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two-car accommodation and a separate study, providing a flexible layout in one of Melbourne’s highly regarded inner-eastern locations. The property was successfully purchased for $2,330,000, delivering the client a well-appointed home that suited their evolving property search. ![](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-30-45-9335-AM.png?width=750&height=513&name=image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-30-45-9335-AM.png) ### The property What began as a search focused on Bayside ultimately resulted in the right opportunity being found in Hawthorn East. It’s a great example of why remaining open-minded during a property search can be so important as sometimes the property that best suits your needs is found outside the area where the search originally began. Most importantly, having previously worked with Buyers Advocate, the client once again trusted our team to represent them through another significant property purchase. ### Securing a four-bedroom home at auction Oren came to Buyers Advocate looking for an owner-occupier property across Hawthorn, Glen Iris and Camberwell. The search ultimately led to Camberwell, where a spacious four-bedroom property presented the right opportunity. ![](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-35-58-4286-AM.png?width=732&height=494&name=image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-35-58-4286-AM.png) ### The property The property offered four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two-car accommodation, providing generous living in one of Melbourne’s most established inner-eastern suburbs. With approximately 195m² of land, the home offered considerably more space than many properties within the unit market, making it an appealing owner-occupier opportunity. ### The result With the property heading to auction, having a clear understanding of value and a disciplined approach was essential. The property was successfully secured at auction for $1,510,000, comfortably below our clients recorded budget range of $1.8 million to $2.2 million. The result delivered a four-bedroom home in one of the clients preferred suburbs while keeping the purchase well within budget. A great example of how the right opportunity, combined with professional buyer representation, can produce an excellent outcome. ![](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-36-21-7991-AM.png?width=730&height=494&name=image-png-Oct-06-2026-12-36-21-7991-AM.png)   ### [October Property Management Update](https://site.buyersadvocate.com.au/blog/october-property-management-update-1) Stay updated on Melbourne's rental market changes, essential maintenance tips, and our referral program for stress-free property management success.
