great communication, technical knowledge and professional service

great communication, technical knowledge and professional service

Having recently put our home of over 40 years on the market, we found the team of Ben and Gary Potter to be professional in their approach to presentation of our property, assisting with the stagers, communication with ourselves, along with Ben having the technical skills to present the property via those methods. We were doing a Deadline sale, at Gary and Ben's suggestion, and they managed to present five great offers on the table for our approval in a very short space of time. I would highly recommend the team of Gary and Ben Potter to others looking for Real Estate Agents to assist in the sale of their property, as their meticulous attention to presentation of your property is above and beyond. It has been a pleasure dealing with Ben and Gary Potter.

Ben Potter has been a communicative and helpful agent. Nothing is too much trouble for Ben. He responds promptly and is always willing to go the extra mile. Ben is ambitious in a good way and I recommend him as an agent.

Professional, friendly, great communicator, easy to deal with.

My partner and I dealt with Ben multiple times over a prolonged two-year search for the right property for us. He was always friendly, professional, and straightforward. A prompt communicator, and a persuasive negotiator when it came to making a case for the value/upsides of a given property/trying to find a deal that worked for both parties. We felt we were treated fairly and honestly in our dealings. Throughout our search, Ben kept us on his radar and was very helpful in bringing properties to our attention and acting as a sounding board on listings we were looking at. In the end, we were delighted to purchase a property from Ben. We ended up paying a bit more than we had set out to, to get the right property, but we were very happy with the end result.

Ben and team acted as the agent for the house we purchased in Bayswater. As the couple we purchased from were elderly, Ben went above and beyond with his communication and probably racked up a few car miles travelling to Bayswater to meet with the sellers and discuss changes. Ben was quick to respond to us, quick with documentation changes, and was extremely helpful every step of the way.

THE POTTERS ARE TRUE TO DESCRIPTION - EXPERIENCE AND ENERGY

THE POTTERS ARE TRUE TO DESCRIPTION - EXPERIENCE AND ENERGY

It can be an uncomfortable experience deciding to sell the family home, a place you have occupied for many years. The sale process is something that most of us are not very familiar with and there are plenty of traps for the unwary amateur. Fortunately, we had already met Gary Potter when we purchased our Bayswater property many years before. We had been favourably impressed then and so the choice of agent was easy for us. We knew that Gary was very experienced and from occasional contact over the years also knew that his market knowledge was vast and that he was a good communicator. We also knew from seeing signs around the area that he had been joined by his son, Ben Potter. What we did not appreciate, having never met Ben, was what a great benefit he brought to the partnership and therefore to us. I am familiar with the concept of a whole being greater than the sum of its parts and that good partnerships adhere to that concept, but I have not seen the principle demonstrated quite so strongly before. Ben is good at the technical stuff which must be a relief for Gary but he also has a good eye and judgement about presentation (including photos) and how to show off a property to make it look the best it can be. So, with the Potters you get a team that is more than two people working alongside each other. There is a synergy that enhances their efforts so that the whole is more than the sum of its parts. The Whatsapp group they set up was invaluable to us in keeping us informed in a timely fashion. They get an A+ from us for communication. We had a few setbacks along the way but the Potters never lost their enthusiasm or determination to sell the property and kept us feeling positive as well. All in all they demonstrated to us that they had a good understanding of what a professional performance looks like and walked the talk.

Positive Experience and Professional Service

Ben (together with Gary) was professional throughout, including in advising me on matters before I had resolved to list with Harcourts. Ben was friendly and knowledgeable throughout. A complete service, including excellent reporting, was provided up until the house sale went unconditional. I was happy with the price achieved given market conditions. I would happily recommend Ben.

Duo that got results !

Ben and Gary are a dynamic father son duo. Selling a house can be very stressful but they helped make it seamless.They anticipated buyers questions, asking us ahead of time for relevant information so was always well informed and prepared. Our What’s App group chat was perfect for quick contact and to relay information. Ben and Gary always quick to reply so we never felt out of the loop. V reassuring. We could see they both worked very hard behind the scenes . Ben and his dad Gary got us what we wanted , very professional, perfect gentlemen , and couldn’t rate them highly enough.

Dream Home

Dream Home

I’ve been working with Ben for 3 years, searching for our ‘forever home’. The market conditions weren’t in our favour to begin with but with patience and determination, Ben kept on proactively searching for ‘the one’. Now we’ve secured a beautiful landmark villa, that I could only have dreamed of three years ago. Ben works with the utmost professionalism and I’ve trusted him throughout this whole process. His local market knowledge is impeccable which is clearly evident when discussing and negotiating real estate. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben to anyone either selling or looking for a property in the North Shore.
