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.

If anyone can work real estate magic, it's Eugene

If anyone can work real estate magic, it's Eugene

I first met Eugene three years ago when he appraised my home. Although we couldn't sell at the time, I was amazed when, two and a half years later, he greeted me by name at an open home. When I was finally ready to sell, Eugene asked for the opportunity to list my property. Within two weeks he had found a buyer, and just seven days later my home was sold off-market for a price that other agents had told me I was unlikely to achieve. Eugene has exceptional local knowledge, works incredibly hard, and genuinely cares about matching the right buyers with the right homes. His communication is outstanding—he keeps you informed every step of the way, even when there's nothing new to report. I can't recommend Eugene highly enough. If you're looking for an agent who delivers exceptional results and truly goes the extra mile, Eugene is the one.

“Once again, Eugene exceeded expectations!”

Look no further than Eugene for the consummate professional agent. His forthright honest approach and accessibility set him apart from other agents, which is why he is our go to property adviser. His marketing, advice on staging, photographer and communications are exceptional. Eugene works hard on delivering great results and deserves the success he works for. He is always presented immaculately, as were his open homes, and he led us through all stages to a great sale even in this difficult market.
