Modern Design

Modern design is extremely sensitive to the site, the environment and the human impact and scale. 
Modernism has it roots in California USA approximately beginning about 100 years ago with the innovative architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright and Rudolph Schindler. 
The brand of modernism that we see in Australia, blurs the boundaries of the indoors and outdoors.

John Couper really understands his market. He is very professional and has years of experience. We have found his insight invaluable. Our house sold very quickly, and we attribute this to John and Jan's excellent expertise in the local real estate market. They are always available to answer questions, and help the process move smoothly. This is our second transaction with the Couper's and we highly recommend them.

John was the obvious agent to manage the sale of my apartment at Moonah Links due to his unique knowledge of the setting. I would not have had confidence in another agent who did not specialise in property sales there. The timing of the sale was not ideal as lockdown followed soon after sales contract was signed but John remained confident. John always got back to me quickly with my enquiries into the progress of the sale.

As I live overseas I had real piece of mind dealing with John. He handled everything from getting the property ready for sale up to completion. John communicated regularly with me and advised me on all aspects of the process, I found him efficient, professional and most of all trustworthy. Thank you John

We have used Coupers Realty several times, we have sold three homes with them and bought two. Every time John has been very supportive and helpful. He knows everything about Fingal and the broader Mornington Peninsula area. John offers great advice and professional service in a friendly and engaging way. Nothing is too much trouble for John. John is a great agent but he is always humble and he really listens to ensure that his services match your needs.

John is a highly professional and committed Real Estate. John has assisted us with several sales and purchases in Fingal and has always acted with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. He strives for provide superior outcomes for both parties in the selling and buying journey. His local knowledge is second to none and his agency ensures that the entire experience is seamless and stress free. We would highly recommend John and will continue to engage his services into the future.

I have bought and sold numerous properties in Fingal and other parts of the Peninsula.By far the most industrious and hard working Agent with the utmost integrity, would be, John Couper.He works tirelessly for the vendor and is always respectful of the buyer.A rare gift in the Realestateindustry.
