We met both Sharon & Malcom through our previous house purchase who gave us confidence knowing they are solid sales agents. Superior knowledge of the market backed up with patience for us to understand the step by step process. Selling your home is a MASSIVE expense and it has to be right, no monies to waste. Sharon & Mel gave sensitive advice to ensure our home looked its absolute best. Photos were amazing and we loved our house all over again. As soon as we were ready to go live they were on Fire! Hugely busy on 1st open home with a multi offer 3 days later. We were very delighted with our offer, enabling us to secure our next home. Sharon did most of our communications and ALWAYS answered/ returned a call. A very clear online dashboard to see our details. The online photos and video clearly engaged potential buyers to attend our open homes. It's amazing what can be achieved when you get the right agents, with smarter selling prices. Looking forward to our moving date. Thank-you Blakies
My first home purchase went smoothly. The Dickisons were very helpful through the whole process. I would highly recommend Daniel and Rachel.
Adam sold us our second home and was easy to deal with throughout. We appreciated Adam's honest, down to earth approach from negotiation through to settlement. Adam regularly checked in throughout the process, and it felt like he really cared about us, not just getting the deal done. We would happily deal with Adam again in the future.
From the first visit, with Kirt, her manner was totally professional, with clear communication, and suggestions that went over and above, to assist with the excellent marketing program she devised. She had brilliant ideas of how best to present our property, and a willingness to be involved in a detailed way, reassuring us, with her offers of future help along the way, as the marketing and sale stages proceeded. This eventuated in a clear paper trail, and constant availability throughout the full process, and an easy sale process for us. Thank you, Kirt, we are very grateful. You will be highly recommended.
Katia was a delight to deal with. She made the process of purchasing the property seamless. She has gone out of her way to answer all our questions and to accommodate our requests. Thank you Katia
Super fast with there communication and replys. Recommend staging for my property that looked superb. Great to deal with and down to earth.
Whilst Mark wasn't our agent, we felt he worked for the best outcomes for buyers and sellers. We would certainly use Mark if we needed to resell the house.
This is the second home Kim has sold for me . Such an easy process being kept in touch with the necessary information, not just communication for the sake of it. Honest, realistic help with pricing using her market knowlege we achevived a great result .
In the beginning, everything about the sales process was explained clearly to me. The photographs taken in and around the house were excellent. The advertising in the various mediums was very effective. The Open Homes were conducted efficiently and I was kept up to date with a written report after each one. Adam explained the comments from each of the attendees and we would discuss their possible interest. Being unfamiliar with the auction process Adam helped me understand what I could expect and calmed my nerves on the day. The auction was a huge success; we achieved a great result. Adam was very professional and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone else wanting to sell their home.
Client liaison excellent. Consultation on all key marketing decisions also excellent. No faults with the reactive marketing strategy. Acknowledgement to Andrei in particular for personal attention, open home management and pursuit of prospective buyers. Brent & Katia also acknowledged in different roles. However, with hindsight, client market expectations set too high which influenced decision to sell in first place and first, best offer was declined. Not a criticism, simply a warning that, in a difficult market, sellers should be conservative in their 'bottom line' view of sale price, independently of agent assessment.

With our verification process, you can trust that the experiences shared are real, reliable, and helpful.
Integrity is at the core of what we do. We conduct rigorous daily integrity checks on all reviews, using multi-stage verification to analyse submission data and behavioural patterns for potential anomalies.
