Fast sale in a difficult market

Fast sale in a difficult market

Our experience with Ian and team Du Plessis was excellent. They helped us understand and navigate the selling process, and made everything as easy as possible. Through Ian's hard work and commitment we were able to sell my mother's house quickly in a challenging market. The sale was required due to ill health and Ian dealt with our family's needs with kindness and empathy.

Fantastic professional Agent

Ian has been really engaging in the whole process of our house sale. He has been communicative and energetic and really positive about selling the house and I have had regular updates and reports. I would recommend him and the team at Barfoot and Thompson; they do just that, work as a team. Ian was realistic and honest with us which we also appreciated. Thanks so much for a great outcome and excellent experience.

Excellent knowledge and communication.

It was a delight to work with Elizabeth while selling my house. She gave me all the information needed to make a decision on the best option to sell at the time. She was professional as well as friendly throughout the whole process This is the second time I have had dealings with Elizabeth and would not hesitate to recommend her to any buyer or seller.

Most outstanding experience we've ever had

Most outstanding experience we've ever had

Ian and Team Du Plessis were by far the most outstanding operators we've ever worked with in real estate. Ian genuinely brings a refreshing sense of honesty to the profession. He provides advice and I never once felt as though that advice was pushing me to an outcome I didn't want. For example, he advised me to counter offer lower than my list price, but our bottom dollar was the list price; we didn't take Ian's advice but rather than trying to push us to take his advice, he gave us the facts, some options, and let us make the decision. In the end the purchaser took the list price, a great outcome for all. There is no other real estate agent I have ever worked with that I would go back to, or happily recommend to a friend or colleague. Team Du Plessis has really changed the perspective on the industry for us. If you are considering using anyone else, DON'T. Just pay the extra fee (if it's extra) and you will not regret it. Don't fall for the free marketing tactics or commission negotiations like we did with previous agents. The service was refreshingly honest and transparent. You will not regret using team Du Plessis.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Elizabeth du Plessis from Barfoot & Thompson on the sale of our house, and the experience was exceptional. From the initial consultation to the final closing, the level of professionalism and communication exhibited by Elizabeth and her team exceeded our expectations. Communication is a key factor in any real estate transaction, and we were impressed by the prompt and effective communication throughout the entire process. They kept us informed at every stage, providing regular updates on the marketing strategy, potential buyers' feedback, and market trends. This transparency and responsiveness greatly contributed to our peace of mind during what can be a stressful time. Their keen eye for detail allowed us to make targeted adjustments that showcased our property in the best possible light. The proactive guidance provided by Elizabeth du Plessis undoubtedly played a pivotal role in attracting potential buyers and ultimately securing a successful sale. The entire selling process was streamlined and efficient, thanks to the team's expert guidance. They demonstrated a comprehensive knowledge of the local market and we felt confident that our interests were well-represented throughout the entire negotiation process. Their professionalism, effective communication, and valuable insights into preparing our home for sale made the entire process smooth and successful. We highly recommend Elizabeth du Plessis, her team and Barfoot & Thompson to anyone looking for dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professionals.

As purchasers of a property listed I found Ian very good to deal with, Professional and always very prompt to respond. Ian worked hard for his Vendor, but was able to understand our position as purchasers to. Our Family looks forward to moving into our now property.
