Harley went out of his way to give us time. Our on site inspection of the section was a pleasurable experience where he shared his local knowledge and followed up any query we had. Following our offer we had a very quick response from the seller and the deal was done.

We couldn’t recommend Shelley highly enough. From the very beginning, she was professional, honest, caring and incredibly supportive throughout the sale of our family home in Hanmer Springs. Selling a home can be stressful at the best of times, but partway through the process we relocated to Ireland while the house was still on the market. Shelley went above and beyond to make selling from the other side of the world as simple and stress-free as possible. Whether it was arranging contractors on our behalf, keeping us updated, or taking late-night and early-morning calls when a few delays arose around settlement, nothing was ever a problem. We always felt that Shelley genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for us and having someone we could completely trust looking after things back in Hanmer Springs made a huge difference. Thank you, Shelley, for all your hard work, patience and support. We are extremely grateful for everything you did to help us get the sale across the line and would highly recommend you to anyone looking to sell their property in the future.

Team Jackie & Shelley gave a quality experience for us. Shelley took care of us from the moment we turned up at the Harcourts office. We asked for the positive aspects of living in Hanmer Springs but equally so we needed to know the negatives as well. Shelley gave an honest opinion which mirrored what we saw after Shelley took us to different properties before we finally found the house that fitted our needs. Both Beth & I highly recommend Shelley & Jackie at Harcourts Hanmer Springs.

.Marketing was comprehensive. I was encouraged to add my views to the way the property was advertised. We discussed the price to market the property for, and having both agreed that was the fair price for the property, Kathryn never tried to make me reduce my goal, to secure a quick result. Katheryn kept me in touch how the campaign was going including updating me on similar advertised properties. As to negotiating Katheryn was very active with prospective buyers, she certainly had her finger on the pulse. I would certainly use her services again as I have in the past three times.
