We recently had the pleasure of working with Susie McLeod from McLeod Rest Estate to sell our home and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Susie was extremely professional throughout the entire process, with excellent communication and a respectful, friendly approach. She kept us well informed at every stage and made what can be a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. We really appreciated her dedication and attention to detail and would highly recommend Susie to anyone looking to sell their property.
Susie was very Professional and answered any questions I had showing alot of knowledge.
From the time I first met Dulcie we were on the same page. At no time did she attempt to bluff or bewilder me with reality of the housing market so I felt I could have full confidence in her. That confidence has paid off and I could not be more delighted that I chose Dulcie Ellis to sell my property. She was very professional throughout. Her market knowledge is undoubted together with her personal caring nature in demanding the best for her client.
Leah has been brilliant to work with.Her professional knowledge of the sale process resulted in a brilliant result for us and our purchasers. We throughly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or purchase a property.
I was delighted to deal with Susie: from first glimpse of this stunning property to the successful purchase conclusion. Clear communication, attention to detail, industry knowledge all wrapped up with efficiency was impressive. I would highly recommend Susie of McLeod Real Estate to handle your exciting purchase (and selling) process.

The after sales things that happen addto the experience
We always felt so supported by Dulcie through every facet of our journey. Her knowledge, the way she clearly communicated with us through the ups and downs of selling our property. And celebrating with us at the end. She is a true professional in every way.
Dulcie gave us the confidence to list our property, and was excellent in guiding us through the process. She was very prompt and reassuring in her communication, which made the process less stressful. Dulcie was great at working behind the scenes in co-ordinating the different parties involved, and very helpful in assisting with the move to our new property. We're grateful for her support and guidance in our sale and purchase.
Great communication; very efficient, always just a text or call away. Excellent knowledge of current market. Well known within her community.
