A Trusted Agent for Both Buying and Selling

A Trusted Agent for Both Buying and Selling

Michelle was the agent who helped me buy my house, and many years later, she also helped me sell it. It was wonderful to work with her again. Michelle is highly professional, efficient, ethical, friendly and always easy to communicate with. She has excellent knowledge of the property market and provided honest, practical advice throughout the whole process. She kept me well informed, responded quickly to my questions and handled every detail with great care. Selling a house can be stressful, but Michelle’s calm and positive approach made everything much easier. I always felt that she genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for me, rather than simply completing a sale. I am very grateful for all her hard work and support, both when I bought the house and when I sold it many years later. I would happily recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced and dedicated real estate agent.

Exceptional Service, Honest Advice, and Genuine Care

Exceptional Service, Honest Advice, and Genuine Care

What an incredible experience we had purchasing our first home. From start to finish, and even beyond settlement, Hayley provided exceptional service, guidance, and support. Her open, honest, and caring approach went far beyond what we expected. From our first viewing, Hayley took the time to explain the property in detail, including potential future considerations and things we should be aware of as new homeowners. Her advice throughout the purchasing process was invaluable. As a homeowner herself, she shared practical experience that helped us make informed decisions. This was our first home purchase, and the process initially felt quite daunting. We did not fully understand all the steps involved and had no one to guide us through the journey. With Hayley’s knowledge, patience, and support, the process became smooth and manageable. Every question and concern we had was handled with professionalism and genuine care. Hayley guided us through every stage, helping us navigate the many unfamiliar aspects of purchasing a property. Her approach to achieving a great outcome for both the seller and us as buyers was exceptional. The contract process, settlement steps, and everything leading up to receiving the keys were clearly explained, with regular communication to ensure we always felt comfortable and informed. What impressed us most was that her support did not end once the keys were handed over. Even after we moved in, she continued to check in and provide guidance. Hayley made us feel more like family than just clients. Her honesty, care, and genuine desire to protect our interests made this a truly memorable experience. We highly recommend Michelle and Hayley Real Estate Independent Agents to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. With Hayley, you are not just completing a property transaction — you become part of a real estate family that genuinely cares. Thank you, Hayley, for helping us achieve such an important milestone in our lives.

Trustworthy and Supportive

Hayley is very trustworthy (unusual in today's market). If you have any doubt then Hayley is here to guide you through every stage of the process like she did for me. When things became prickly Hayley was there to support me. I couldn't be more grateful for her kind advice and effort.

Great help from beginning to end

After 14 years keeping in contact with Michelle I came to market and she helped me to sell my house effortlessly. Hayley and Michelle have helped me through the complicated process but with them everything went smoothly. I am very happy with their service and recommend them. They even helped me to find a place to live and they went the extra mile. They have great communication too and always followed up.
