Pragmatic with his approach and excellent communication

Jamie understands the Hamilton market well. He presented information clearly with good comparisons so we got a good feel as to where our property was in the market. He kept us informed along the way and made recommendations without putting pressure on us.

Team Bakarat for the win !!

Jamie was amazing to deal with from the very first message I sent. He was friendly, knowledgeable about the property, and was so helpful without any hesitation. Jamie’s support made the process easy and stress-free every step of the way, he was respectful with timings when needing anything from me and helped ensure my offer was delivered on time. The brochure that was given for the home had majority of the information I needed, and the minor details I requested that were not in there Jamie sent me with great speed. It was a wonderful experience having a dedicated agent that stayed engaged throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Jamie as your first time agent or your next, if purchasing again he certainly will be mine!

Excellent communication and very helpfully

We are glad to have picked Kate because we knew she would be an amazing person who was willing to help us sell our house after 5 weeks! Communication is our priority; she answers all our questions when we need to ask, small or big, and she is happy to reply without delay. Huge thank you, Kate!!! You are the best!

Sold in One Week in a Challenging Buyer's Market

Sold in One Week in a Challenging Buyer's Market

As someone who works in marketing and helps businesses make strategic decisions every day, I don't make important choices lightly. Before selling our home, I met with several agents and even considered selling it ourselves. Looking back, choosing Jamie was one of the best decisions we made. What set Jamie apart was his ability to combine market knowledge with a clear strategy. He took the time to understand our goals, explain the local market, and show us exactly how he planned to position and market our home. As first-time sellers, that gave us confidence from the start. What impressed me most was that Jamie didn't just list our property—he knew how to market it. His advice on preparing the home was invaluable, and we followed his recommendations. He created strong buyer interest, generated competition, and helped us achieve the result we were hoping for. In what was widely considered a challenging buyer's market, our home attracted multiple offers and sold within just one week. Jamie's negotiation skills were equally impressive. He knew how to manage buyer interest, maintain momentum throughout the campaign, and navigate offers strategically. We always felt confident that he was working to achieve the best possible outcome for us. Throughout the process, Jamie was professional, responsive, transparent, and easy to work with. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire experience feel smooth and manageable. If you're looking for an agent with outstanding market knowledge, strong marketing expertise, excellent negotiation skills, and genuine care for his clients, Jamie is the person you want representing you. Thank you, Jamie. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Quick, easy & on the same page

Jamie was fantastic to work with throughout the sale of our home. Communication was easy, we were always on the same page, and he took care of everything with very little involvement from us. The whole process incredibly simple and stress-free. We always felt confident that our home was in good hands and would happily recommend Jamie to anyone looking to sell.

Professional & Exceptional Communication!!

Melody George was fantastic to work with when we bought our home. She stayed in touch throughout, was never pushy, and always answered our questions promptly. Her out of the box thinking meant we were able to bid at auction when we initially thought we wouldn’t be able to and we ended up being the highest bidders. That kind of creativity and professionalism is exactly why we chose her to sell our own home too.

Made a Stressful Process Easy and Delivered an AMAZING Result!!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better agent than Melody George. She was always focused on getting us the best possible result, both in timing and price. Before we even listed, Melody and Jamie gave us really clear advice on exactly what we should do to get our home ready for market to achieve the maximum value. We trusted their experience, followed their recommendations, and we’re so glad we did!! The outcome definitely exceeded our expectations. In what has been a much tougher market, with similar homes around us sitting on the market for months, Melody generated four offers within the first week and had our home unconditional just a week and a half later. Together with her team she worked incredibly hard behind the scenes, kept us informed every step of the way, and negotiated tirelessly to get us the strongest possible price and terms. We ended up selling for significantly more than we had expected, and we genuinely believe that’s because of their knowledge, strategy, and willingness to go the extra mile for us. Thank you for making what could have been a very stressful experience such a positive one! I’d recommend Melody George and Jamie Barakat to anyone considering selling their place and will definitely be using them again ourselves.

Positivity, enthusiasm and good negotiation.

Melody George stood out at the open homes I visited, prior to putting my house on the market, engaging well with everybody that visited the house while we were there. Her positivity and enthusiasm for the house that she was selling, made me decide to choose her as my agent. She certainly didn't disappoint. We had four offers after the first weeks open homes, all $100,000 over the government valuation, which demonstrated to us how good her negotiation skills were. The house was signed up and sold in less than 2 weeks.

Seamless stress free sale.

Jamie and his team made the entire sales process seamless from start to finish. Jamie handled everything — from arranging house washes and minor improvements right through to professional staging — which completely took the stress out of selling. His deep knowledge of the market was clear at every step, and we felt completely confident trusting his advice. The team kept us well informed throughout, and we couldn’t be happier with both the speed of the sale and the final result

Exceptional Service from Start to Finish

Kate was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. She was friendly, approachable, and incredibly easy to get along with, while always communicating clearly and keeping us informed every step of the way. What really stood out was that she always did exactly what she said she would, giving us complete confidence and peace of mind. She went above and beyond by organising trusted professionals, such as plumbers and gardeners, whenever they were needed, making everything seamless and stress-free. Kate was also extremely considerate of our tenant, treating them with kindness and showing genuine respect for their home throughout the process. Her professionalism, reliability, and dedication exceeded all of our expectations, and we couldn't have asked for a better real estate agent. We would highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for someone who truly cares and consistently delivers outstanding service.
