Expert Guides & Checklists
Comprehensive resources to help you buy, sell, or invest in property with confidence. Created by Michael Kalinovski with 25++ years of St George expertise.
Every property transaction comes with questions — and the answers aren't always easy to find. These resources are designed to give you clear, actionable information at every stage of the process, whether you're buying your first home in Brighton-Le-Sands, selling a family property in Rockdale, or evaluating an investment in Kogarah.
Each guide, checklist, and report has been created by Michael Kalinovski based on 25+ years of real transactions in the St George district. They include current 2026 data — stamp duty rates, government scheme thresholds, commission structures, and market statistics — so you can plan with real numbers instead of outdated estimates. All resources are completely free to download and use.
Buyer guides cover everything from first home buyer eligibility to property inspection checklists. Seller resources include cost breakdowns, marketing plan templates, and 30-day action plans. Market reports provide suburb-level data for St George, while investor checklists help you evaluate rental yields and growth potential.
