Married at First Sight's Cameron Merchant sells Kirribilli apartment
The Kirribilli apartment of the MAFS star Cameron Merchant, was sold post-auction earlier this month.
The one bedroom had been passed in at $875,000 at its lacklustre June auction.
Merchant, who is still with his now-pregnant wife from the Channel Nine show Jules Robinson, got just the two bids.
Jordan Black and Nigel Mukhi, from DiJones Chatswood, had the listing.
Their discussions appeared serious as he stared down the prospect of a serious loss on his investment.
Negotiations continued for 80 minutes after the auction.
The pair married properly after the 2018 series concluded.
Merchant bought the property for $941,000 in 2017, before he took part in the Channel Nine experimental show.
At the time he was working for cricket bat brand Spartan and was playing first grade cricket for Manly.
He was expecting to make a loss on the one bedroom Fitzroy Street unit, with around $900,000 being sought in its pre-auction price guidance.
The mildly art deco Nottingham block has 12 units with its last one bedroom sale last December at $900,000.
The pair are said to be looking to upsize together.
Merchant also owns an investment apartment in Dee Why he bought for $720,000 in 2014.
