This is the second time we have sold a house with Ben, which truly speaks for itself. We appreciate his hard work, persistence, and how focused he always is on getting the best result for us, even when things got challenging. Will definitely work with him again in the future!
Harriet and Tom made me feel confident that they could sell my house. They thought it was lovely but were realistic about the issues it had. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering selling. I was very happy with the whole experience.
These guys really know the market for south coast of Wgtn
We gave Jasper a tricky property in the middle of winter in a tough market and he came through with multiple offers by putting in the legwork and following through on even the hint of a lead. We really appreciated Jasper's consistent advice, optimism and tenacity. Thanks Jasper your hard work gave us a great experience and a good result. We highly recommend Jasper as a professional and easy to deal with agent, who gets results. Call him!! Kste and Jeremy
Alice was so great to work with! She was very clear and helped guide us through the process as this was our first home. I would absolutely recommend working with Alice
Nothing was too much trouble for these guys. They were so informative. Kind friendly and know their stuff. Highly recommend them.
Chris and Will made selling our home an easy process. Their communication was excellent right from the start - about the process, our preparation, working together and during negotiation. They made sure we felt heard and that we were focused on the outcome. Chris and Will made sure we understood the market in which we were operating. They were very professional and assured but equally friendly and engaged. Selling with Chris and Will was an altogether positive experience.
I had a fantastic experience with Billy Bell and Tommy Madams both with buying my new home and selling my own. They made what could have been a very stressful process so much easier, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. When buying my new home, they were great to deal with — always responsive, happy to answer questions and never made me feel like I was being a nuisance when I wanted to go back for another look. They were also great at reassuring the vendors that my house would sell, which helped me secure the property. Once it came to selling my place, they got straight into it. They helped with everything from the appraisal to recommending house washers and cleaners, and the marketing was excellent. They even made sure the weather was right for the photos by postponing for a day, which made them look amazing. The pricing strategy worked really well, with plenty of interest straight away, two open homes in the first week and multiple Tommy’s agents bringing buyers through. Communication was excellent. They kept me updated through WhatsApp, so I always knew when people were coming through and what the feedback was. When an early offer came in, I wasn’t sure about it but I trusted them and I’m so glad I did. They ended up getting me seven offers, and I sold for a price I was really happy with. The offer was unconditional too, so everything fell into place with the purchase of my new home. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better result in this market. The whole Tommy’s team was fantastic, with different agents working together to bring buyers through and get the best result. I’d absolutely recommend Billy, Tommy and the Tommy’s team to anyone looking to sell their home. They know what they’re doing, communicate brilliantly and genuinely make you feel like you’re in good hands. It was a pleasure working with them, and I’m really hapy with how everything turned out. Now I just have to get rid of 21 years of memories to fit into my smaller house !
From our first meeting with Alice – we knew she was the right person to sell our house. As first time sellers, she took us through the steps clearly and thoroughly – her solid communication continued all the through to when we sold our house. In a tricky market and with the added hurdle of Body Corporate queries, Alice’s extensive market knowledge and insights through data analysis, enabled us to make clear and informed decisions, and ultimately sell our house to the right vendors. 10/10!
I can honestly say that Mitch to be the best Agent I have ever dealt with. He is very approachable, listened to my needs and kept me informed regularly, while we worked together as a team to achieve a great outcome! I would definitely recommend Mitch to anyone selling their home
