Buyer of 44 Casey Avenue, Fairfield
Melissa was absolutely fantastic to deal with. As a first time buyer, she went to every effort to accommodate what I needed, and made my life — and the purchase — so easy and enjoyable! It felt like a very smooth process and everything moved like clockwork. She was an awesome go-to between me and the vendors, and she was so quick, too! She gave a very strong sense of integrity and was incredibly personable and warm. I thought she did a great job of marketing the home (it clearly worked) and removing any roadblocks I as a buyer had. Not that I plan to buy anytime soon, but if I do, I know that with Melissa I'll be communicating with a straight-talking, honest agent.

We were thrilled with the level of service that we received from Richard and his team. From our initial chat on the phone, about thinking of kicking things off, through to the sale of our home, we were kept fully informed. The communication about everything was exceptional and Richard's lovely calm nature meant that there was no stress at any point. We knew exactly what to expect and when, and at no time whatsoever did we feel any pressure to do anything that wasn't what we wanted. We went to auction with our property, and were welcomed warmly at Lugtons offices, and made to feel comfortable - again there was no stress/pressure at all. We'd have no hesitation at all in recommending Richard and his team to others. Thanks so much again everyone, Marcelle and Mason

We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Melissa. From start to finish, she was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. Melissa kept us informed throughout the entire process, was always available to answer our questions, and went above and beyond to make everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. We really appreciated her excellent communication, attention to detail and genuine commitment to achieving the best outcome for us. She made the whole experience easy and we would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy and dedicated real estate agent.

We enjoyed a great service from Rahul and Lugtons. He was always on call for answering questions with a friendly attitude and response. His market knowledge is amazing and delivered a good value for our property in a short time which is what he promised from the beginning. We would certainly advise Rahul to prospective sellers or buyers as he will deliver with friendly and professional advice. Thank you Rahul we will always remember you.
