Selling the house on behalf of my elderly mother could have been a nightmare, but with the calm support and Chris and the team it was a breeze. Chris kept me aware of exactly where things were up to at every step of the way.His contacts and local knowledge made little things easy. Access to high quality cleaners (for both inside and outside) was such time saver for us. Chris was very accommodating and worked around my availability without fuss. Very good advice from start to finish - a short campaign, focus on the genuine buyers and guidance around final negotiations were all really valuable in securing the sale.

We cannot recommend Chris and Shane highly enough. Their knowledge of the local area is exceptional, and being local themselves gave us great confidence throughout the whole process. As we were living in the UK while selling our property, the 12 hour time difference could have made communication challenging. However, Chris and Shane were always incredibly responsive and kept us updated every step of the way. They regularly responded to our messages promptly, even outside of normal working hours, which we really appreciated. Their experience and insight into the local market were invaluable, especially during a time when the market was quite saturated. They worked hard to help us get the sale over the line and provided honest advice throughout the process. The entire sale and handover process was smooth and stress free. They went above and beyond by helping to organise local tradespeople to resolve minor issues and ensure everything was ready for settlement. Chris even helped tidy the lawn while we were overseas, which is far beyond what we would ever expect from an agent. Nothing was too much trouble. Chris was proactive, friendly, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome for us. This wasn't our first experience working with him either. He previously helped us purchase a property, and once again he delivered outstanding service. If you're looking for professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy agents who genuinely care about their clients, Chris and Shane are the team to choose. In our experience, they are simply top agents.
We had an excellent experience working with Tommy during the sale of our home. From our first meeting, Tommy's professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail quickly gave us confidence that our property was in capable hands. He was committed to ensuring every aspect of our property was presented at its best, making the entire sales process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Our biggest concern was the landscaping. While it was structurally safe, its appearance had deteriorated over time, and we knew this could raise concerns for potential buyers. Tommy recommended obtaining an engineer's report and including it in the sales information pack. This created complete transparency, gave buyers confidence, and ultimately resulted in a genuine win-win outcome for everyone involved. He also suggested arranging a builder's report early in the process and professionally staging the home. Both recommendations proved invaluable, helping to answer buyers' questions upfront and ensuring the property was presented at its best. Throughout the entire process, Tommy remained positive, optimistic, and reassuring - even within a difficult sales market. He was always available to answer questions, regardless of the time of day, and his communication was exceptional. We always felt that he acted within our best interests and was genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome for our family. Tommy's advice, professionalism, and proactive approach made a significant difference to the successful sale of our home. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

With Chris Harris our agent, we had an easy and smooth experienced when me and my son bought our house in Kelson. It was a wonderful experienced for us.

His honesty, excellent communication, and attention to detail gave us confidence at every stage. Lakhwinder always went the extra mile to ensure our best interests were looked after. He was approachable, supportive, and never made us feel pressured. His dedication and expertise were invaluable, and we truly appreciate all the hard work he put into helping us secure our new home.
