Quick, easy & on the same page

Jamie was fantastic to work with throughout the sale of our home. Communication was easy, we were always on the same page, and he took care of everything with very little involvement from us. The whole process incredibly simple and stress-free. We always felt confident that our home was in good hands and would happily recommend Jamie to anyone looking to sell.

Professional & Exceptional Communication!!

Professional & Exceptional Communication!!

Melody George was fantastic to work with when we bought our home. She stayed in touch throughout, was never pushy, and always answered our questions promptly. Her out of the box thinking meant we were able to bid at auction when we initially thought we wouldn’t be able to and we ended up being the highest bidders. That kind of creativity and professionalism is exactly why we chose her to sell our own home too.

Made a Stressful Process Easy and Delivered an AMAZING Result!!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better agent than Melody George. She was always focused on getting us the best possible result, both in timing and price. Before we even listed, Melody and Jamie gave us really clear advice on exactly what we should do to get our home ready for market to achieve the maximum value. We trusted their experience, followed their recommendations, and we’re so glad we did!! The outcome definitely exceeded our expectations. In what has been a much tougher market, with similar homes around us sitting on the market for months, Melody generated four offers within the first week and had our home unconditional just a week and a half later. Together with her team she worked incredibly hard behind the scenes, kept us informed every step of the way, and negotiated tirelessly to get us the strongest possible price and terms. We ended up selling for significantly more than we had expected, and we genuinely believe that’s because of their knowledge, strategy, and willingness to go the extra mile for us. Thank you for making what could have been a very stressful experience such a positive one! I’d recommend Melody George and Jamie Barakat to anyone considering selling their place and will definitely be using them again ourselves.

Positivity, enthusiasm and good negotiation.

Positivity, enthusiasm and good negotiation.

Melody George stood out at the open homes I visited, prior to putting my house on the market, engaging well with everybody that visited the house while we were there. Her positivity and enthusiasm for the house that she was selling, made me decide to choose her as my agent. She certainly didn't disappoint. We had four offers after the first weeks open homes, all $100,000 over the government valuation, which demonstrated to us how good her negotiation skills were. The house was signed up and sold in less than 2 weeks.

Seamless stress free sale.

Seamless stress free sale.

Jamie and his team made the entire sales process seamless from start to finish. Jamie handled everything — from arranging house washes and minor improvements right through to professional staging — which completely took the stress out of selling. His deep knowledge of the market was clear at every step, and we felt completely confident trusting his advice. The team kept us well informed throughout, and we couldn’t be happier with both the speed of the sale and the final result
