Mary was helpful, energetic and focussed

Mary provided us with all of the contacts we required to get my mother’s estate property ready for auction and then was very proactive with open homes and a sale prior to auction by being willing to work in with another agent. Communication was excellent. I would list with Mary again.

Throughout the whole process from viewing, placing an offer, right through to settlement and anything that came up in between, I found Hayden to be very helpful, encouraging and super switched on with communication. More importantly was his honesty and authenticity which was very much appreciated.
