About Karl
Born and raised in the Eastern Beaches, Karl’s unmatched affinity and knowledge of the area comes from being a long-time local. Over 25+ years after turning a burgeoning interest in real estate into a bonafide career, Karl has faced the challenges of the property market’s booms, slumps and recovery cycles and has come out the other side with a loyal customer base that is a testament to his unsurpassable levels of passion, service, and knowledge. Karl’s unwavering dedication to ensuring his clients get the best outcome possible has led to his outstanding sales total of $870 million +, which is solidified by the beaming smiles on the faces of over 4,000 happy clients. This roaring success has earned Karl multiple awards, including “Top Harcourts Consultant in Howick”, and a place in the “Top 5 Harcourts Real Estate Agents Internationally”. Aside from the property market taking up a lot of real estate in his heart, Karl has always had an adoration of nature. This has lead to his 5-acre lifestyle block out in Whitford to be home to not only his beautiful wife Louise and their two kids of 11 and 16, but dozens of rescue animals too! All surrounded by more than 20,000 (predominantly native) trees. Tucked away somewhere among all that are a few of his favourite Barry Crump books. If not enjoying the sunshine on his own property, Karl loves to explore near and far - from visiting surf spots in NZ with his family, to travelling through his favourite parts of Europe and Asia. Many of Karl’s adventures go hand in hand with his love for being active - especially water sports and martial arts.

Outstanding communication, no pressure, fantastic result

From the moment we engaged Karl, we knew we were in good hands. Throughout the entire process of selling our home, Karl and his team were an absolute pleasure to deal with. They were professional, approachable, and genuinely invested in getting the best outcome for us. From the outset, his appraisal of our property was spot on. Karl's relaxed, no-pressure approach made the whole experience much easier. Communication was outstanding from start to finish, and we always felt like we knew exactly where things stood. One of the highlights of working with Karl was his last-minute recommendation to change our method of sale. It was a bold call, but it proved to be a brilliant strategy that we believe made a real difference to the final result. Karl is a seasoned professional who truly has his vendors' best interests at heart. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to sell.

Cherie with her experience, knowledge and guidance resulted in a successful sale for the family.

The family is so grateful to Cherie and Lisa for their immense effort in selling our parents’ home of 30 years. Their market knowledge, guidance and professionalism resulted in a positive outcome and experience for an extremely grateful family. When we decided to sell the family home the best decision we made was to work with Cherie and Lisa. They took us through the process providing professional guidance and market knowledge so that we presented the house in the best possible way. Regular face to face communication ensured that we understood what needed to be done and when. Their use of WhatsApp was very effective for ongoing messages and photos as the property was prepared. They kept us fully informed, so we were clear on expectations and especially house staging and the preparation and content of the marketing material. Critical aspects for us were the guidance they provided, their comprehensive market knowledge of the area to help us in accessing where we stood but also what was happening and developing trends and expectations of buyers as we went to market. As we proceeded through open home weekends and leading up to the auction, we received comprehensive reports and feedback so we understood where we stood and the level of interest in the property. Cherie and Lisa were invested in us and in the success of the auction to achieve the best possible outcome for the family. Looking back over this experience the family is so thankful to Cherie and Lisa for all they did for us.

An outstanding agent in every respect.

Our relationship with Cherie and her team spans nearly fifteen years and five properties. We keep going back to Cherie because we know that she works tirelessly with integrity and professionalism to achieve the best result possible for both vendor and purchaser. She is extremely warm and honest and she has always had our utmost confidence in the way she supports us and our family to list and sell our homes. I could not envisage a better agent. She is simply the best.

Excellence

As purchasers of a property for our parents, Cherie and Lisa had to deal with our whole family. Cherie and Lisa were helpful, engaging, professional, always available to either open up for inspections ( there were a few) and to provide any information we requested. Was a pleasure dealing with both ladies and can only but recommend. I have no doubt this professionalism was extended to the vendors as well. Personally I have dealt with various agents over different properties throughout the years and Cherie and Lisa would rate amongst the best.
