Maclay Longhurst, 35, has made a name for himself selling $3 million homes in some of Sydney s wealthiest inner-city suburbs as a director of property group Bresic Whitney
One of Australia s top-earning real estate agents has been exposed as being among the men captured clashing with police in a famous photograph of Sydney s shameful Cronulla race riots.
Maclay Longhurst, 35, has made a name for himself selling $3 million homes in some of Sydney s wealthiest inner-city suburbs as a director of property group Bresic Whitney.
But on Sunday, the high-flying selling agent came crashing to Earth as he was identified among a crowd as furious Australians tried to push people who they believed were immigrants off south Sydney beaches in 2005.
House hunters could wipe a six-figure sum off their next dream home by expanding their search just one train station away to neighbouring suburbs.
New homeowners entering the market can save thousands by stepping back from beachside and inner-city properties and moving one suburb along the train line.
The recommendation comes after Sydney s house prices hit a record $1.3 million last quarter.
House hunters can fetch a home in Hurstville (pictured) for $1.45million but can save hundreds of thousands by moving a train station away
An extra two minute commute on the southbound eastern suburbs and Illawarra line can also save house hunters $220,000 as Penshurst homes (pictured) fetch for $1.23 million

Bate Bay beaches were closed on Sunday morning after a surfer was believed to have been knocked off his board by a shark at South Cronulla around 8am.
The surfer was unharmed and paddled back to shore where lifeguards inspected his board.

Surf Life Saving NSW spokeswoman Donna Wishart said lifeguards initially expressed doubt about whether a shark would have caused the dent on the man’s board, until officers from the NSW Department of Primary Industries confirmed it was consistent with a bite.

Subscriber only The entire Sharks squad were hauled into Cronulla HQ for a 5am penalty session last Friday after an unnamed culprit breached a minor team rule by failing to record training related data on a club computer system. In a one-for-all punishment, Morris summoned his team for a pre-sunrise session in what he thought would be an unpopular move. He was wrong. To Morris surprise the team liked the early session so much they asked if they could make it a regular thing. The coach known as Bomber obliged and every Friday session for the rest of the pre-season has been scheduled for 6am.
