An exceptional real estate professional who sets the gold standard for expertise and service.

An exceptional real estate professional who sets the gold standard for expertise and service.

From our very first interaction, it was clear that we were working with a true expert. Her deep knowledge of the local market was impressive. She didn't just show us houses; she provided insightful analysis on neighbourhood trends, property values, and future development potential, which was crucial for our investment decision. Her professionalism shone through in every detail. The preparation was meticulous—from beautifully presented comparative market analyses to perfectly scheduled viewings. Perhaps most importantly, they demonstrated sharp strategic thinking during negotiations. She crafted a compelling offer based on solid data, advocated for us skillfully, and expertly navigated counter-offers to secure a fantastic outcome. Her calm guidance took immense stress out of the process. In short, working with Qiao was an outstanding experience. If you are looking for an agent who combines market mastery with impeccable execution and genuine dedication to their clients’ best interests, look no further. We give her our highest possible recommendation

Elissa is the BEST & a Magician!

Elissa is the BEST & a Magician!

When selling your home on the Peninsula, you have a lot of choice when it comes to agents. I chose Elissa because her presentation was the most professional, she lives locally and genuinely understands Peninsula buyers. I also often see her at the Barfoot office, which I loved — great exposure for walk-in buyers! From the start, it was clear she is an extremely hard worker. I chose Elissa not only for her work ethic, but because I had attended her open homes in the past. She actually follows up and calls for feedback — something so many agents don’t bother doing. That level of care really stood out to me. Throughout the sale of my home, Elissa kept in regular contact and provided detailed feedback after every open home. She made notes on each buyer and their comments, which was incredibly valuable. She also shared great advice on styling and presenting my home in the best possible light. When it came time to secure an offer so I could move forward with the purchase of my next home, Elissa truly pulled a rabbit out of the hat. She got the deal unconditional within just 2.5 working days, allowing me to move on to my next chapter with confidence. Elissa is professional, hardworking, knowledgeable about the local area, and has excellent marketing skills. She will absolutely fight to get your property sold — even to a tight deadline. She double- and triple-checks everything to ensure the process runs smoothly. Barfoot’s fees were also very competitive compared to other agencies. If I ever need to buy or sell again, or if family or friends are selling, Elissa will be my first recommendation. Thank you so much, Elissa!

Professional, Patient, and Incredibly Responsive

Professional, Patient, and Incredibly Responsive

We have never sold a house and the thought of selling our family home after 25 years filled us with fear and anxiety. A chance meeting at an open and we were immediately impressed with Qiao and Leo's knoweldge and professionalism and despite having many many contacts in the real estate world we felt an immediate comfort and bond with them both. Right from the get go they listened and understood what we were about and what we as a family wanted to achieve. They guided us rather than instructed us and the initial marketing video and photos was actually an enjoyable experience! From that point Leo took the lead with campaign however Qiao was always available to answer questions and support us. Leo was incredible and despite the emotions and stress of a campaign, action and various offers he never fails to respond to our many many questions. Leo treats his clients like family friends and we will not forget that. He goes out of his way to assist us and is honest and open throughout. To the point that he has throughout - and continues to - take the time and effort to help us scope out our next home - always available, patiant and open. The trust we have in Leo is deserved and well-earned. Qiao and Leo are an incredible team and we are so pleased to have had them guiding us. We cannot speak more highly of them or recommend them to others.

Qiao is an excellent real estate agent

Qiao's efficiency was remarkable. She expedited coordinated viewings effectively, leading to a quick sale. Her proactive approach was evident when she organised an open house that attracted this buyer.” We couldn’t believe everything went so successfully with Qiao handling our property transaction. Her experience made the whole transaction stress-free. If you’re looking for a agent who delivers the best service, she is the one! We were impressed by Qiao's negotiation skills, she get the best result for us and we are really appreciate that Her professionalism was so impressive that we trust her without any doubts. I couldn't be happier with Qiao, I would definitely recommend her to my friends Thank you Qiao
