Sector Professional with integrity

Sector Professional with integrity

I was the buyer, for me the conduct on behalf of Mel’s vendor was my first experience. The balance of really understanding her client, managing their requirements was first and foremost, she was upfront and honest and worked with me on what could be achieved and various options. I ended up being highly impressed that I was also about to list my own house for sale with Mel. I have and will continue to recommend her to others. It’s more than a job to her and I valued the fact she listened to what I needed and how that may work with her vendors. Frankly if it wasn’t for her I likely would not have continued with the process and not purchased the property she was selling. Trust is a high must have with a real estate agent who manages your asset and debt for you, and there’s nothing worse than being told and sold things that simply aren’t true. Mel is highly trustworthy, effective, focused and responsive. Because of all that, you continue to engage with her and work with her.

Easy and efficient

Mel is the selling agent for a property we have just purchased. We found the process surprisingly stress free thanks to Mel’s great communication and relaxed nature.

Trust. Being in safe hands. Honesty.

Trust. Being in safe hands. Honesty.

Having only ever sold one home 30 years ago, was slightly apprehensive about the giant step i was about to make Mel instantly put me at ease - absorbing any concern i may have harboured ; her honesty, compassion, interest support and respect added up to an extremely smooth process. She kept me informed constantly, inviting my opinion. I felt safe, respected and looked after during the very brief time it took for my home to sell. I wish Mel all the very best for the future; would recomend her to anyone wishing to buy, sell or invest.

Excellent communicator, friendly and efficient.

Mel came highly recommended to us. She was always confident of the outcome and went about her business in a truly professional and capable way, while always putting us first with her friendly and caring manner. We were never left wondering and would highly recommend Mel and the Collab Team to anyone thinking of selling their home. Thank you Mel. You were exceptional.
