This campaign was a real pleasure to undertake and took plenty of effort in relation to the water rights and nuances in relation to the three properties on offer together. The marketing was well received and captured both local buyers looking to expand their operation, hobby farmers looking to set up a home and professional growers from around Victoria. The Expression of Interest was well contested and resulted in an outstanding result for vendors.
