Both Shane and Julie were Respectful, honest and trustworthy. Great to work with. Very supportive

A team that supports the seller, guides you through unknown territory and was always available - albeit busy, they did get back to us with answers to our questions. Honest selling price guide and we felt they worked to help us get as much as they could for Dads home. Great tips for staging home and cost saving measures to minimise our expenses. Great Team, I would recommend Shane and Julie.

Shane, Julie & Kendra were amazing to work with. Everything you would want in a land agent!

Highly Recommend Shane, Julie & Kendra!We have now used Shane, Julie, and Kendra for two house sales, and we highly recommend them.Throughout our entire experience, they provided efficient and clear communication. No matter what came up, nothing was an issue for this team. Even when we encountered a few hiccups along the way, they remained completely unfazed and worked tirelessly to get us the best result possible.They are incredibly warm, friendly, and diligent in their approach. If you want a team that is professional, stress-free to work with, and truly has your best interests at heart, look no further than Shane, Julie, and Kendra.

Care and clear!

I couldn’t recommend Team Robinson highly enough! As a first-home buyer, the whole process felt quite daunting at times, but Shane, Kendra and Julie made everything feel so much easier. They were incredibly helpful, professional, responsive and approachable throughout the entire process. Buying my first home was such a huge milestone for me, and I’m so grateful to have had Team Robinson there to guide me through it. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you so much for helping me find my first home!

Great communicators, updating us every step of the process, professional and highly recommended

We dealt principally with Julie, and she was a real delight. We found her professional, courteous, respectful, and a great communicator. Our sincere thanks for how she responded quickly to any questions or requests that we had. This was more challenging for her as she was dealing with multiple family members, and we really appreciated the time she took with each of us to ensure we were updated. Julie was the agent who sold the property to our family a few years ago, and we were very happy to ask her to sell the property on our behalf when Mum could no longer stay there. We have no hesitation in recommending her and Team Robinson to other prospective sellers.

In general we were very happy

Review for Shane Robinson – Team Robinson We were very happy with Shane and the Team Robinson team throughout the sale of our property at 10 Derby Street, Green Island. Shane was extremely approachable, efficient and always available when we needed him. Calls and messages were returned promptly, and we genuinely felt that he went above and beyond what we would normally expect from an agent. He was incredibly obliging, even helping to organise tradespeople to take care of some of the smaller jobs around the property, which made the whole process much easier for us. Shane worked hard to get the property marketed and sold within a relatively short timeframe, and we always felt that he was doing everything he could to achieve a successful result. The only aspect of the process that caused us some concern was the timing of the conditions on our sale in relation to the property we were purchasing. This may in part have been due to our own naivety around the process, but we were relying on the professionals involved, including our agents, to help ensure that the important dates aligned and that we weren’t left exposed. Unfortunately, the dates didn’t line up as well as we had expected, which created a fairly stressful few days and meant we needed to seek an extension from the vendors of the property we were buying. In hindsight, we would have appreciated a little more guidance and coordination around this part of the process. That aside, our overall experience with Shane and Team Robinson was extremely positive. Shane was professional, personable, hardworking and prepared to go the extra mile to get things done. We would certainly be happy to recommend him to others looking to sell their property.
