Great communication and extremely helpful

We recently purchased with Amy and she was great to deal with right from the start- she was transparent with the property details and provided us honest and quick communication- Amy was very thorough with details and answering questions we had- everything was provided to us in a timely manner and we were very happy with the outcome. Thanks Amy for being great to deal with the whole process

Positive, professional and a pleasure to deal with

Amy was wonderful to deal with throughout the selling process - supportive, positive and offered great advice. She dealt with all of our questions and any issues we encountered with professionalism and enthusiasm. From the moment we met Amy we found her personable and trustworthy, she wasn’t pushy and demonstrated strong communication skills and market knowledge. We are so grateful for Amy and would highly recommend her.

Made our first home journey so special

We had such a lovely experience working with Amy, especially as first home buyers. She made the whole process feel so much easier with her bubbly personality, friendly approach, and willingness to always help and answer our questions. Amy was incredibly informative and supportive, and we really appreciated how she helped us throughout the journey. She made us feel comfortable and informed, which meant a lot during such an important milestone.

Best agent in the Bay

Amy is incredible! Her warm and genuine personality, paired with extensive market knowledge instilled confidence straight away and made buying my first home a breeze. She went well beyond what you’d expect, patiently answering all my questions and even organising quotes from roofers for me. Going to auction was a scary thought initially, but Amy made sure I felt fully informed and prepared, and it actually ended up being a really fun and relaxed experience. I’m so grateful for everything she’s done and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I can’t thank or recommend her enough!!

Simply the best

Working with Amy was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She is not only incredibly personable and easy to talk to, but also exceptionally knowledgeable about the real estate market. We approached Amy to conduct an off market sale and she worked extremely hard to get a good outcome. Amy’s advice was thoughtful, honest, and always in our best interest. Her guidance gave us total confidence throughout the process. What really sets Amy apart is her genuine care for her clients. She was always responsive, proactive, and one step ahead, making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and even enjoyable. Her professionalism combined with her warm, friendly personality made all the difference. If you’re looking for a real estate professional who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and truly invested in your success, Amy is the one. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

You couldn’t find better

I had 3 different agents come and view my home and straight away Amy showed herself to be a cut above the rest. Her market and industry knowledge are exceptional, she is prompt and proactive and explains everything clearly along the way. When she offered to also help me find a property I admit I didn’t see how that could be of benefit to me, however she quickly showed her worth there too, and now I don’t know why anyone would buy a property without an agent like her helping. Time and again while dealing with other agents on both sides of this process I got to see how lucky I was that I’d chosen Amy - I learnt not all agents are as knowledgable, honourable or as diligent. She was constantly in communication, from my smallest question to my biggest meltdown - she knew just how to keep things on track. Amy went well beyond what you would normally experience with an agent. She chased leads for suitable properties, followed up on required documents and clarified conditions and contracts. She even called the council to chase a lagging LIM. I was really busy with work so it was such peace of mind knowing she had the details handled. I ended up selling my house in a very reasonable timeframe for a price I was more than happy with and because of Amy I also purchased the perfect property - which wasn’t even on the market yet (and gave me the best chance of buying it without all the competition). Her negotiations skills when it came to crunch time were calm and confident and got me the best deal at both ends. This buying/selling property process is so mentally taxing for those of us who don’t do it often, so getting the right agent is imperative. I’ll be telling anyone who will listen that it’s Amy they need. I honestly can’t praise her highly enough.
