Elaine was amazing to work with and purchase our first home through. She was quick and clear with her communication and helped guide us through this confusing process.
Great market knowledge. I trusted his judgement. He knew that complex specifically and what is reasonable to expect. Very professional and had integrity.

Response in time, just a call away.
We had a fantastic experience selling our property on Ash Street, Avondale with Vish from Area Specialist. From the very start, Vish was incredibly prompt, professional and easy to deal with. He put together a strong four-week campaign that delivered an outstanding result. Come auction day, we had two genuine bidders and even in a challenging market Vish managed to sell our property unreserved under the hammer for a price that exceeded our expectations. What really stood out was how consistently Vish has stayed in touch with us, never pushy and genuinely helpful. He is friendly, highly skilled and an exceptional negotiator. We highly recommend Vish to anyone looking to sell.
Cooper helped us through buying from start to end. Making it an easy to work through process of buying our first home. Attending multiple viewings on different properties and being very involved to help us find the right home. He went above and beyond to help us get it done. Supplying excellent communication and market knowledge to help us get the right deal we wanted for our first home and to educate us on what to expect through the buying process. Thanks Coops
We had a very smooth experience purchasing our home through Alex Wu and the team at Barfoot & Thompson Mt Roskill. Alex was professional, efficient, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. He provided clear and practical advice at key stages, which gave us confidence in making decisions. His experience and judgement made the whole process feel much more reassuring. Overall, he is a reliable and trustworthy agent, and we would happily recommend him to others.

Alex was great to purchase a property from. He was always available, able to support me thoroughly through the buying process and helped me to understand and resolve any concerns I had.
When we decided to sell our property, we knew we were facing an uphill battle. Between global geopolitical tensions causing petrol to the roof, domestic economic uncertainty, and a housing market that had noticeably cooled off, every indicator was telling us to brace for a long, stressful wait. Several local agents actually told us we were being unrealistic about our timeline and the value that we envisioned and even warned us of our choice of agent. To make things even more complicated, our property was located outside of Olivia’s normal territory but thankfully we ignore them and hired Olivia following our instinct. She proved every single local expert wrong. She sold our property in just three weeks from listing. In this market? That felt like a miracle. From start to finish, Olivia’s expertise was on full display. She doesn’t just "know houses"—she has a masterful grasp of the housing market, the selling process, and the legal requirements behind every document. While other agents may have fears in this market condition, Olivia was calm, strategic, and effective. What truly set her apart was her positivity, honesty, and charm. She never sugarcoated the challenges, but she also never let us lose hope. She guided us through property preparation, handled transaction documentation with flawless precision, ran open homes that actually drew crowds, and navigated the conditions to closing without a single hiccup. Most importantly, her communication was exemplary. She gave us timely updates at every single step. We never had to chase her for news; she was always one step ahead, keeping us informed and stress-free. If you want an agent who turns "impossible" into "sold in 3 weeks," look no further. We honestly could not have done this without her. Thank you, Olivia! You didn’t just sell our home; you gave us total peace of mind.
I had an excellent experience working with Jessica and Cleedon. Their clear and consistent communication made the entire process smooth and stress-free, as I was always kept informed at every stage. They were punctual and reliable, always showing up prepared and on time for appointments. What really stood out was their depth of experience and the quality of advice they provided. They offered valuable insights that helped me make confident, well-informed decisions. Throughout the process, their professionalism and dedication to great service were evident. Most importantly, they proved to be highly trustworthy, which gave me peace of mind during such an important transaction. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable and knowledgeable real estate agent.
