Very many thanks for all your hard work and achieving a great sales result. It has been far less stressful than I had imagined, even during level 3 lockdown. You have been honest and taken time to explain each step, kept me updated, always there to answer questions, given me feedback from viewings, always positive and cheerful and a pleasure to work with. I chose you because you know the area so well and have such a great reputation. You have good connections with local developers and residents who have lived in Torbay for many years. I will recommend you to all my friends without hesitation.

Geraldine Zareian of Barfoot and Thompson was chosen recently to market our home which we had lived in for the last 55 years. Geraldine has great knowledge of the Torbay area and marketed our property to a wide range of potential buyers. These included property developers and also families who wished to look at purchasing a home to renovate. Geraldine was very patient throughout and explained the marketing and auction process to us very well at all times. Geraldine and Coy Zhao worked together as a team on the marketing of our home and gathered a large volume of enquiries at a time when we were suddenly thrown into Lockdown. Despite this, we had a very successful auction, selling over our expectations, which included 16 registered bidders on the day of our auction. We are very happy to recommend Geraldine to anyone looking for a true real-estate professional. Regards Marie and David Gray

""Professional, Efficient, Communication, Customer Care" are the words on top of our minds when we think of our agent Harry Liu. I contacted Harry when I saw he listed and sold a similar property near my home. I'm impressed with his prompt response, not only that he provided a price guideline, but most importantly, he took us through the detailed process from what we need to prepare, how to do the marketing campaign, to what will happen on settlement day. Even though he knew there was another agent trying to get my listing, Harry kept the whole situation very professionally. We are pleased with the help he provided to get our house presentable before it was on the market. During the campaign, Harry was always available to take buyers through and gave us live updates on the situation. We were well prepared for the auction day even though the auction price did not reach our expectations. Harry kept encouraging us and continued working hard to get the right buyer. Eventually he helped us sell for a premium price above our expectations through multi offers. We will definitely work with Harry Liu in the future and we highly recommend him to other vendors and buyers. " Ming Li

"* Patience * Tolerance * Positivity * Personal Ethics * Professionalism * Excellent Communicators * Values * Relationships That’s what you get from Geraldine and Andre! They both complement each other. I have known Geraldine for almost seven years when I met her at a show house. She is never judgemental, free with her advise and expertise and when I decided to sell seven years later, I remembered the agent who cared to communicate even when I had no intention of selling. She is as genuine as you get and Andre is detailed and thorough in everything he does. They are the caliber of agents you want to take care of the sale of your property. " 8/1/2021 - T Govender

"Geraldine went above and beyond to assist us as overseas property owners to get the property ready for marketing and attend to all issues that arose from us not being in the country. " 4/16/2021 - Gary Cox

We cannot thank Geraldine and Andre enough for being our agents during the sale of our house. They have a great knowledge of the local market and real estate in general and nothing is ever a problem for them. Their patience and kindness throughout the whole experience was so much appreciated. I am sure many people will agree with me that selling a house can be a very stressful and emotional experience. Especially when you are rushing to clean the house before open homes and then hearing things people don't like about your house. There has been tears a few times. They always had a positive approach and made me feel that everything was going to be okay. They felt more like our best friends than our agents. They got us a great offer for our house and made the experience so much easier than we thought it was going to be. We highly recommend them to anybody thinking of buying or selling their home.
