The three bedroom property at 11 Foch Street, Tugun, just over half an hour from the Gold Coast, was registered to Ms Corby’s father Michael who died almost a decade ago.

An offer was made on the two bathroom, single garage property before it could be opened for inspection mid-month.

The Corbys were looking at offers over $549,000 for the property via Sandi Webber of Armstrong Real Estate on the Gold Coast. Ms Corby’s mother Rosleigh Rose was registered owner of the property in November 2008, paying $375,000. She then sold it to Ms Corby’s sister Mercedes for $360,000.

The property was listed in Michael Corby’s name on current records, and if it sells for $549,000 it will be $174,000 more than Rosleigh Rose had paid nine years ago.

Schapelle Corby is due to return to Australia within the next two months.
