Straight Shooter

Straight Shooter

Had a great experience buying my first home. He was a straight shooter from the start and made the whole process much easier than I expected. He was also a huge help with negotiations and getting the purchase across the line at a price I was happy with. Really appreciated his honest advice and support throughout. Would happily recommend him to anyone buying a home, especially first-home buyers!

Highly Professional, Responsive & Transparent Throughout the Process

We had a good experience working with Eugene and are thrilled to have successfully purchased our first home at auction! Eugene was professional, hard-working, responsive, and always easy to communicate with. He kept everything transparent between vendors and buyers. And answered and communicated heaps of questions from us. It was a great pleasure working with Eugene, and we would highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling a property. Thank you, Eugene!

Highly professional topnotch Real Estate

Eugene was very professional through the sale process of our house. Selling a house was a new process for us and not without it's unforeseen challenges and stresses. Eugene lead us through the process clearly and calmly from end to end, and guided us through several hurdles that popped up during the due diligence process. At the start he gave us very valuable advice on how to present our property and how to most optimally market it - which ended up with us getting significant numbers through the open homes and a great sale. Throughout the marketing and due diligence phase he really went the extra mile to calmly solve various different questions that cropped up from buyers. In the final phase we ended up with multiple potential buyers at the auction, with a final sale result we were very happy with. I would highly recommend Eugene as a Real Estate Agent - his deep knowledge of the market, professionalism, diligence, problem solving, relationship and sales skills are top notch!

Honest and helpful

We first spoke with Eugene about selling our house in 2023, Eugene was very straight forward to deal with, communicated clearly and didn't try a hard sell when the timing wasn't right for us. Fast forward to 2026, we were ready to buy. With very few homes that suited us in the area we wanted, Eugene found the perfect house which we were able to purchase off-market. In a declining and difficult market, Eugene then managed to sell our house at auction for above CV. Throughout the sale process ,Eugene provided clear reports and communication on the marketing, and then what we could expect at auction. Eugene was proactive and responsive, so throughout the whole process there wasn't a time when we needed to chase him. We are happy we chose to work with Eugene and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.

A Fantastic First-Home Buying Experience

A Fantastic First-Home Buying Experience

Eugene was incredible to work with throughout the purchase of my first home. From start to finish, I felt genuinely supported and well looked after during what can be a pretty overwhelming process. He patiently answered my countless questions (and all of my dad's "dad questions" too!), making sure I understood what was happening every step of the way. He also coached and helped me develop a strategy for the auction, especially as I had never been through one before. What really stood out was how professionally he managed the process and maintained strong relationships with both buyer and seller, helping everything run smoothly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Eugene to anyone looking to buy a home and would happily work with him again in the future when it's time to sell. Thanks for everything, Eugene, I couldn't have asked for a better first-home buying experience.
