Don Asplin

About Don

Don Asplin is fully committed to getting the best possible outcome for his sellers and has been refining his negotiating skills since his first Willetton property transaction back in 1985, when interest rates were up to 18% and well before most current local agents were born.

Don Asplin understands you and your needs. He knows what it is like to build your first home, get kids through school and uni and into the workforce. All while undertaking his own mature age tertiary studies, building an investment portfolio and a career. He felt the pain of the global financial crash and the 2015 correction. He has “been through the mill” and come out the other side stronger and with more knowledge you can use. All that experience means the most accurate appraisals, and a smooth and stress free sale, the best possible price and the shortest possible time on market.

Don is proud to show you actual independent industry data that proves he has personally sold more Willetton property than any other agent, and that his decades of experience from thousands of negotiations with families from every culture has allowed him to develop highly refined systems and methodology that leave nothing to chance. It is unrefuted proof that he has the highest average listing price, has the highest performance above target and one of the shortest times on market.

Using a combination of tertiary education and an early business career in marketing and promotions Don works with his sellers to tailor a unique, clear and structured plan for selling each property including a totally transparent detailed breakdown of all costs, timelines and fall-back plans to cope with any sudden market changes. Nothing is left to chance.

Don is adamant that he will not have personal assistants or buyer advocates, he won’t work part time or in a job-sharing arrangement. “My clients choose me to do the job and I am the person they expect to show up and do it. Everything is done by me; and I will ensure my fees are transparent and competitive, and that my proven methodologies put more money in my sellers pockets than anybody else can”.

Communication is direct, crystal clear and with his highly developed tech skills it can be in up to 70 different languages. Immediately responsive to your questions and concerns, he is a frequent communicator. From the first contact with you to key handover, he will handle all contact, all marketing planning and preparation and all buyer discussions and negotiations. There is no equal to the experience that only comes from thousands upon thousands of negotiations, and no agent can match his access to buyers that trust him.

Don is constantly building an amazing database that includes local, interstate, and overseas buyers, and maintains decades old direct relationships with buyer’s agents and property advisors around Australia. With over 20 years as Prowest Real Estate’s number 1 agent he is now working with the children of his early clients. “You don’t become a multi-generational agent without the trust of, and a deep and intrinsic understanding of, your marketplace and the economic drivers that power it”.

Don Asplin is the single most experienced and recommended agent in Willetton and winner of the independent Rate My Agent “Agent of the Year" award an unmatched 6 times and holds dozens of industry awards and peer accolades. Recognised by the industry as an innovator, he was one of the first agents to see the power of social media and has provided ongoing support to his communities by developing and financing the ongoing management of the exclusive and highly successful “I love Willetton” etc community Face Book groups and his innovative You Tube Channel.

Although qualified to run his own agency he has no conflicting owner or Principals’ responsibilities and drawing on his time, he has no obligations to be available for school or sport pickups, or council meetings. He is a 100% sales agent and focused only on the best possible outcome for his sellers.

All that experience means more accurate appraisals, better quality advice and an ability to pre-empt any problems with tried-and-true solutions and most importantly for Don’s clients it means a smooth and stress-free sale, the best possible price and the shortest possible time on market.
