Commercial in confidence

Thank you to everyone who attended the teleconference. Reconfirming the key messages; non-binding offers are due Friday 27 March, due diligence commences Tuesday 31 March. We expect due diligence to be comprehensive. Jaime and I will prioritise our time towards this activity. We’re hearing many client stories from you and we think it’s important to share them with our community. Here’s one from Sean McGrath;

Sean McGrath – Halcyon Wealth Advisers

I was speaking with a client last night just to see how she was doing through this time.
She responded that she had a win today. Her biggest worry was how she would pay for the rent if she lost her job or her hours were restricted.
She was encouraged to approach the owner of the unit she rented to see if there was anything that they could do. She was so happy when they agreed to reduce the rent by $200 month till July, and review it after this time.
She commented that this was Karma in action – She is always doing good things for others and now it is paying her back.
When I raised her Super and the current investment markets, she stopped me and said, I don’t want to know the balance, I trust that you will tell me what to do when the time is right.
She then asked how we were coping both with these tough phone calls at work and at home.
Every call I make now I am encouraging renters to speak with the owners and see if any reduction can be made in rent, and homeowners I am encouraging them to approach the banks and have the discussion early especially if they are heading for difficult times.
