\u2018You\u2019ve really f***ed me on this, mate\u2019 … the rivalry in the second series of Luxe Listings Sydney<\/a> \u2014 launched on Prime Video today \u2014 was expected, but not this!<\/p>\n

Luxe Listings Sydney: Daring choices rock the red carpet for the season two premiere<\/a><\/h2>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Ray White TRG founder Gavin Rubinstein and buyer\u2019s agent Simon Cohen, who are mates in real life, clash over a would-be business deal gone wrong in an action-packed three-episode premiere.<\/p>\n

After the initial \u201cbinge\u201d of what\u2019s now a global hit reality TV show \u2014 and with some of Sydney\u2019s best oceanfront and harbourfront homes on show why wouldn\u2019t it be \u2014 viewers can watch a new episode every Friday until April 22.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d anticipated the entry of Black Diamondz pricipal Monika Tu<\/a> to ruffle a few feathers (and she does) but it\u2019s the row over Cohen\u2019s hunt for a Dover Heights clifftop house for a client that sees tensions explode.<\/p>\n

Co-star D’Leanne Lewis find Cohen a \u201cmore attractive, better value\u201d Dover Heights clifftop.<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

Superhero Rubinstein, who\u2019s ambition is to see his company dominate Sydney\u2019s east (and probably the world in the future), has convinced his mate, George, to sell his clifftop \u201cmasterpiece\u201d if the money\u2019s right.<\/p>\n

He makes George a hard-to-refuse offer: \u201cIf I bring a suitcase with $17m or $18m, would you say yes [to selling]?\u201d<\/p>\n

Rubinstein even lines up a dream $25m beachfront for George to buy in Manly\u2019s Shelly Beach, \u201cPoint Piper of the north!\u201d<\/p>\n

But even the best-laid plans ….. a call from Cohen, as Rubinstein stands on the balcony overlooking the ocean planning the \u201cultimate double deal\u201d (you\u2019ve gotta love real estate agents) shatters the whole shebang.<\/p>\n

Wouldn\u2019t you know it, co-star D\u2019Leanne Lewis, the Laing and Simmon Double Bay principal, has found a \u201cmore attractive, better deal\u201d a few 100m away from Gavin\u2019s clifftop that \u201cticks all the boxes\u201d.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s enough to make our superhero \u2014 and perhaps some of the viewers \u2014 feel a bit sick, but in Cohen-speak, \u201csick\u201d means good.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the word he uses to describe the St Leonards penthouse Monika has on offer for a mere $18.5m, complete with sauna, cheese room, cinema and virtual golf .. even a koi pond.<\/p>\n

And she\u2019ll throw in the Fendi couch and a baby crystal chandelier in the $1.8m furniture package.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m selling the Australian dream to my Chinese clients,\u201d Tu exclaims, who hosts a party in the penthouse\u2019s display suite to find a co-agent, boycotted by Rubinstein.<\/p>\n

When informed he\u2019s gone on a date instead, Tu isn\u2019t impressed: \u201cI\u2019m really shocked \u2014 he\u2019s a no-show at my party!\u201d<\/p>\n

Never mind, a host of other big-name agents are there, including all the co-stars, plus Sydney Sotheby\u2019s managing director Michael Pallier and top Manly agents Michael Clarke and Cherie Humel.<\/p>\n

Earlier in three-episode binge, look out for Ray White bosses Brian White and Dan White, who square-off in Rubinstein in a tense meeting. Not to mention radio star Kyle Sandilands, plus Finder co-founder Fred Schebesta and his magnificent Coogee oceanfront home.<\/p>\n
