CARINE GLADES AGENT PROFILE INTRODUCING BARNEy FLEISER Barney Fleiser is experiencing deja vu. "my real estate career has come full circle. I started as a sales representative, and then ran my own business. When we moved to Australia in 2009 I returned to a sales role and have just become an owner again." Barney started his career in 1995 as a sales representative with the Chas Everitt International Property Group in South Africa. After an outstanding beginning as National Rookie of the year he became the sales manager for the office, and a few years later purchased the business. He later became the Regional Chairman for the Gauteng Region. He has recently joined Alan Baxendale as a Director of ACTON Carine Glades. "I've been very aware of the ACTON brand since I moved to Perth and knew it was something I would like to be a part of. I wasn't actively looking for change, but Alan can be very persuasive . We had several discussions and I decided the time was right to move back into running a business. It certainly feels good to be part of another strong brand, there is so much more you can offer your clients." Barney, his wife Gillian and their two children live in Hillarys and are very involved in the local community. Their son and daughter originally attended Hillarys Primary school and now go to St mark's, and Barney coaches the Whitfords Under 13s cricket team. "When we moved to Perth we chose Hillarys as it's on the coast, is very family oriented, offers a good lifestyle, has lots of parks and is a nice area to bring up a family. "Living locally has certainly been a benefit to me as an agent. I have firsthand knowledge of the area. I know the key features and attractions, I know what is happening in the market - I know property values and what people want. "Pricing is extremely important when it comes to selling, you need to get the price right to attract buyers and generate offers. my knowledge of the area means I can give my clients a head start by setting the right price. I also involve them in the price decision and they can be confident that they have my 100 percent commitment to the sale." Barney averages 20 days from listing to sale - a strong reflection of his experience, knowledge and the effort he puts into selling. As family is important to Barney and his wife, Gillian will be joining him at ACTON Carine Glades. "Gillian is very much a part of the team. She might work in the background, but she has played a significant role in my success. We are both looking forward to our future with ACTON."
