Albert Sassoon of Pacific Property Buyers, a buyer’s agent with deep Eastern Suburbs roots, has secured a $15.1 million off-market five-bedroom house at 14 Cranbrook Road, Bellevue Hill, for clients seeking to build their dream home.
Albert, operating across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, sourced the northeast-facing property on a sloping 600-square-metre-plus block through direct outreach to local agents rather than waiting for public listings.
The campaign began with an exacting brief: clients wanted a minimum 600-square-metre site in Bellevue Hill, northeast-facing on a slope, with potential to construct a 400-square-metre-plus home.
Strategic connections in limited inventory
Albert’s 25-year career in the area was decisive in a suburb where suitable sites rarely reach the open market.
“Being in real estate for 25 years, I’m very well connected with the local agents,” Sassoon says.
“Once I got the brief, I reached out to the agents and sourced a number of off-market properties to which we inspected three and bought one.”
The approach eliminated time wastage in a competitive environment where Bellevue Hill’s appeal consistently outstrips available stock.
“Being Bellevue Hill, it’s a very sought-after location and not a lot of choice,” Albert says.
“When reaching out to the agents, being very specific on the client’s criteria saved us a lot of time.”
Client feedback validates targeted approach
The buyers praised Albert’s market understanding and negotiation capability in a formal testimonial.
“Albert’s in-depth knowledge of the local market, understanding my specific criteria, and his ability to negotiate was fantastic and very well worth engaging him as our buyer’s agent,” the client says.
For Albert, the transaction carries personal significance beyond commercial success – his real estate career began in Double Bay, making this result a professional homecoming of sorts.
The three-bathroom house includes two car spaces and provides the foundation for the clients’ custom build plans.
