Fantastic as usual

Have used Di many times for selling & buying homes a wealth of experience . With 80% of agents there is a lot of self interest there & sort term thinking . Di is in the 20% & will tell you what she thinks based on experience , not what she thinks you want to here . She's the real deal , thanks again for all your help through the years .

Listing with Di was the right choice

I met Di when she was the agent selling the house I went on to buy. The support she gave me as a purchaser left her top of my list of agents when it came time to sell. Di has an easy manner and a wealth of local knowledge. Her approach to preparing the house for sale was practical and hands-on, creating a presentation that I could achieve and maintain and that she knew would sell. Di knew what to worry about and what not to worry about; I found her pragmatic approach very reassuring. Trusting Di with the sale of my house was a wise decision and gave me a result better than I could’ve hoped for.

Confident and Assured

From the very first meet with Di Martens I felt comfortable and reassured we chose the right person for the job. We instantly connected as if life long friends. Her assessment and advice for the most suitable marketing plan came without hesitation including valued recommendation on areas requiring attention or not prior to listing. Her hard working attitude and offers to assist beyond requirement gained our highest respect.

Di Marten is an outstanding agent

From the moment that I met Di Marten I realized that I had engaged a very special person. Di immediately set me at ease and was remarkable in all aspects of the process in selling my unit. Di went well over and above what agents do in ensuring that my unit was presented in the best possible way in order to get the best possible result. As an elderly person Di ensured the process was less daunting than I had anticipated. I fully recommend Di as an agent.

Fantastic Result

Kanta was wonderful to work with on the sale of my mum’s home in May this year. My mum who is 91 and I were impressed with Kanta’s warmth and caring nature plus her hard work in getting a fantastic result for mum. Kanta is professional and nothing was too much trouble. She worked hard and kept us well informed on progress through open homes and buyers interest and was honest in her assessment of how the market was moving and what the buyers feedback showed. Mum’s house was passed in at auction but Kanta engaged with those that were still interested and secured a very good result for us just 3 days later with 4 unconditional offers on the table. We have no hesitation in recommending Kanta to sell your home.

Professional and Friendly

We have used Dermot's services on a few occasions now and every time we are very impressed by his professionalism, knowledge of the market and his ability to interface with the various parties that are involved in the sale. He is able to communicate very effectively from the tenants to the lawyer. We felt that we were in safe, capable hands and that he was very proactive in ensuring that the agreement had all the appropriate clauses in it well before sale day making it seamless for both vendor and purchaser. He was also dealing with an additional overseas vendor but we always felt well informed even though we were in Covid lockdown circumstances at the time. Dermot was able to react and adapt quickly to the market conditions and ensure the sale went ahead despite the restrictions in place. It was reassuring to know that Dermot was backed by Barfoot and Thompson who are an impressive and professional company that demonstrated the utmost integrity in all their dealings with us. Once again we have been very happy to use Dermot's services and were delighted with the end result that Dermot and Barfoot and Thompson achieved for us.
