“One of Kenmore’s best kept secrets is the highly regarded Misty’s cafe located opposite the park in Kingussie Street.

A must stop for a quick coffee or a more relaxing treat!

If you’re like me, always on the lookout for great local places to eat and drink, then make sure you take a trip down to Misty’s opposite the park in Kingussie Street Kenmore.

Recently taken over by local Barrister Brayden Segal, with his own unique blend of Delano coffee, the amazing coffee on offer is complimented by fresh locally made food and a relaxed family environment

make this trendy café, one of the most talked about café’s in the area.

Thriving and exciting local businesses Like Misty’s are important to making Kenmore the place to live and I know that you’ll love stopping by.

With a local park only meters away, if you’re a parent wanting to chill out for a few hours while the kids play or you’re just

wanting a quick catch up for business or pleasure there is no other café in Kenmore which offers space, brilliant service and privacy to match.

Make sure you drop in and say G’day to Brayden and Master Chef Jordan.

Oh, and don’t forget to tell them Matt and Josh sent you.

Enjoy!

Welcome to the latest report for the residential property market place in Kenmore. During the last quarter, from April 1st through to June 30th 2015, the local property market continued to see strong activity with modest capital gains. Brisbane wide saw a per quarter improvement of 1.4% and 4.5% for the full twelve months to June. Low interest rates continue to fuel enthusiasm and buyer demand within the investor and occupier markets. With some of the heat coming off the markets in Sydney and Melbourne, Brisbane is being tipped by a number of property experts to be the market to ‘get into’ during 2015. To understand what this might mean for you, please feel free to contact Josh or myself at any time to discuss further. All the best, Matt O’Neill · Place Estate Agents 0423 693 550 · [email protected] Procopis · Place Estate Agents 0401 418 236 · [email protected]

MATT O’NEILL - YOUR KENMORE SPECIALIST...page 6.

My husband and I would like to express our sincere thanks to the team at Place and especially to Matt O’Neill and Josh Procopis for ensuring that the sale of our home was a pleasurable experience.

From the initial visit when we invited Matt to give us an appraisal through

the selling process to settlement we found Matt knowledgeable, honest, organised and professional at all times. The advertising package presenting our property was excellent and the number of prospective buyers brought through the door demonstrated the scope and range of the marketing capabilities of the

team at Place. Matt kept us informed as the discussions with the interested buyers progressed and we were delighted with the speed of the sale and the sale price achieved.

Matt was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be calling on him for the sale of our next property.

What our clients are saying - Lynne & Nigel F.
