Cris has been great over many years, helping me find and sell. She recently sold my place in Westmere, helping me with market data, tips to show the home and her large marketing reach and network. When dealing with such an important decision you need someone who you can trust. Thanks Cris !

We selected Cristina to market our house in Freemans Bay on the recommendations of acquaintances and acknowledging her record in the area. Christina is extremely professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy and has been an absolute pleasure to work through the process and deal with. The social media, marketing campaign and photography organised were all of an exceptional quality. We were always kept informed and up to date throughout the process, while Christina went above and beyond what might normally be expected to overcome some challenges and achieve our sale. I would highly recommend Christina to anyone considering selling their home in the area.

Cristina was highly responsive to my requests throughout the process - nothing was too much trouble. She helped guide me through the process and gave me a thorough picture of the house and its history. Thank you Cristina, can't wait to move in!

Smooth and effortless experience!

Cristina was recommended to me by another agent who didn't know her well but had been impressed. I'm very happy I went with her, she organised everything about the sale including various contractors while I was at the other end of the country. Always responsive, she did so much organising without making a big deal of it, I felt like I was in really good hands. The property looked great and I got an excellent price in a difficult market. It was very easy from my end, probably not so easy from her end, but you'd never know that from talking to her! Completely professional in every way. I can see why she won all the awards!
