Fantastic Job

A few months ago I listed my property with Nina and I'm so glad I did. Right from the get go, the photos and the video were amazing, stunning, even better than the high expectations I had. Nina's valuable styling tips had a part to play in the photos too; they made a real difference in the presentation of my home. Nina is honest, hardworking, warm and friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I'm sure its Nina's great communication and negotiation skills that sealed the deal in the sale of my home in a difficult market. The rest of the team were fantastic too, from admin to accounts, all was done efficiently and well. If I were to sell another property, I would have no hesitation in choosing Nina and Bayleys again.

Great experience with Nina.

Very good experience, great communication. We liked Nina's honest approach and communication. She did not try and smooth talk us as agents have in the past. She worked hard to find buyers and gave us good feedback from her communications. We mainly appreciated her honesty.
