Professionalism, integrity, honesty, careful listener
We got two appraisals for our home in Johnsonville, one from Duncan and one from another company. We chose Duncan because gave us an honest appraisal and didn't inflate the house's value. He gave us a comprehensive appraisal which included information about local sales, schools, and maintenance costs vs potential increase in value.
Once we had signed on with him, he connected us with a great builder/handyman who completed all the pre-sale maintenance.
Duncan brought through the buyers he had made contact with through previous listings. Once the house was on the market he quickly brought groups through, using his contacts through the Harcourts group. Due to a pre-auction offer, our house was on the market for 15 days - and there were over 50 groups who came through the house both through the open homes and through private viewings.
Duncan worked with huge energy and commitment to get us the best price possible in a market where low prices are the norm. The auction yielded a result of an additional 5% above the pre-purpose offer.
In addition to all the above, he listened carefully to any concerns and answered any questions. He led us through the process with his trademark integrity and humour.
If ever I had property to sell in the Western suburbs area, I would not hesitate to engage Duncan again, and would encourage any potential seller to engage him too.
