Sunshine Coast home to sell with all the proceeds to go to charity

A home with a heart-warming story is set to sell at auction for the first time in 27 years to raise money for The QLD Lung Transplant Support Group.

The previous owner, Catherine Davies, was a 14-year heart-lung transplant survivor. After her passing, she left her home and all the proceeds of its sale to The Queensland Lung Transplant Support Group to provide accommodation for careers and families of the transplant patients close to the Prince Charles Hospital in Brisbane.

The home has stood unloved for a couple of years until recently when The QLD Lung Transplant Support Group could take the property over from the Public Trustee. One of the members from the group, Del, regularly drove down from Toowoomba and coordinated the clean-up effort required to take the home to market.

“It is a fantastic cause, and we are incredibly humbled to be a part of it,” said Kate Cox, Licensed Real Estate Agent Reed & Co. Estate Agents, and the agent leading the marketing campaign for the property.

“It is such an incredibly generous thing for Catherine to do, and considering the circumstances, we decided to help sell the house at no charge and not take any of the normal commission on the sale of this property.”

Upon deciding to help sell the property, Kate Cox of Reed & Co. Estate Agents began seeking support from businesses and suppliers resulting in many Sunshine Coast businesses showing their support and donating their services to help with the sale.
