We sold our house will living overseas. Selling the house was relatively easy. The hardest part was the business that needed attending too afterwards which was complicated by distance. We needed to rely on someone on site, someone we could trust. This was Michelle Laming. We asked Michelle if she could help and she basically managed everything on our behalf. For example, Michelle: - arranged quotes from the removal companies. - identified options for storage - provided us with feedback on the state of the house prior to handover. Through this feedback we were able to keep the grounds in good condition and employ a carpet cleaning company. - liaised with the removals company and checked to ensure all HH possessions were moved. - assisted us with an insurance claim for an area of carpet which had been unexpected been damaged by water leaking from pot plants. I am delighted to write this reference for Michelle Laming and would recommend her without hesitation to others thinking of selling their properties.

From the very beginning of inquiring to list our property, we were treated with the utmost respect. With the market sluggish and our property suitable for a narrow range of buyers, it was necessary to have a good strategy in place, as well as a realistic timeframe to sell. Ann and Michelle's plan was twofold: - Auction after a three-week advertising campaign, combined with three open homes. - If not sold at auction, follow-up with interested parties requiring to sell themselves, along with advertising with a price that meets the market. We were impressed with the weekly reports and visits after each open home. The report highlighted the number of people visiting, their comments and views of the house, as well as commentary on the price range they thought was appropriate. Though the property did not sell at auction, it gave us a clear indication of the price range for the second strategy, which was to advertise with a set price and open homes. This had an immediate effect, as a purchaser was found with the first advertisement and open home. Throughout this period, Ann and Michelle were very professional and their vast experience was evident. If we had not pursued an auction strategy, we would have had Ann and Michelle trying to find a purchaser at a price well above market expectations. We have no hesitation in recommending Ann and Michelle to anyone wishing to list their property. You will be kept well-informed and given professional tips on how to enhance your home before going to advertising your property for sale.

Michelle was fantastic, very helpful, always available and had a genuine interest in helping me out. Buying your first home can be quite an intimidating process and I felt she knew and respected that, the willingness to meet me and work outside of ordinary hours speaks volumes. Professional, honest, reliable.

My partner and I meet Michelle on an open day of a property on Church Street (I think) we got to see so many properties. I instantly liked the way Michelle spoke to us and informed us a lot of knowledge regarding the property. We found Michelle to be so helpful with all the properties we looked at with her and how she went out of her way to advise when new properties coming available etc. We found a property through Harcourts but it was with another Agent so we asked Michelle if she could be the Agent for us. We got the property with the help of Michelle. What we liked about Michelle was that she was very caring and trustworthy and just made us feel comfortable. She has even kept in touch with us and asking how we are settling in to our new home. She is now going to be selling my parents property as they also got to meet her on a few occasions with us and liked her personality etc. We are very happy to send this review through for Michelle.

Michele was so helpful. Without her, we would not have been able to move so quickly. Less than 3 weeks! She kept in touch with us all the time, letting us know what was happening. I fully recommend her.

Michelle was extremely professional. She was objective, kept us completely up todate with what was happening in the market in general and with what was happening to our property in particular. The property was empty and we lived out of town so this was much appreciated. Always courteous and respectful, Michelle was unstinting with her time and energy put into the sale.

Michelle's, and the Harcourts team members we dealt with, friendly, professional approach was much appreciated. We received timely relevant information on the properties we were looking at, and throughout the process of making an offer etc.

Michelle was so lovely to deal with. Very kind and responsive to the end, even after the sale had gone unconditional.

Michelle is really good dealing with the sales. Very professional and good agent, she’s made it so easy for us to sale the house and to buy the other house. I highly recommend Michelle with my family and friends.

Michelle was caring and professional throughout the process of selling our Mother's home. Her attention to detail with the appraisal presented lead us to engaging Michelle to sell the property. Michelle marketed the property successfully. Communication was thorough and were given up to date information regularly. The feedback after viewings was well presented and there was honesty throughout the process. Thank you Michelle for successfully selling the property. We would not hesitate to engage Michelle in the future.

Michelle has a wealth of knowledge and experience. She was very approachable, her communications was exemplary and she always had a smile when she greeted you. I would highly recommend Michelle as an agent for your property listing.

I found Michelle very good & always keep me in the loop with regard to the sale of my unit. She always returned calls & very pleasant to deal with. Would highly recommend her to anyone selling or buying a property.
