We had a great experience working with Jordan. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process, keeping us informed every step of the way. As we weren't living at the property, he went above and beyond by personally checking on it to ensure everything was in order. Highly professional and reliable—we would definitely recommend him.
Geraldine gave us considerable confidence from from our first meeting with her that she was the right person to market our house. We could not fault her communication, knowledge, endeavor and guidance through what can be stressful process but which she made very straight forward and minimally intrusive. Her considerable experience in the real estate business was evident throughout. The fact that we sold our house at a good price in our first attempt was proof of her effectiveness and her skill as a negotiator.
We purchased a property listed with Geraldine Hermens. It was a bit of a whirlwind as we first saw the house on a Sunday and the Auction was the following Tuesday. Geraldine was very efficient and effective getting all the information we needed to us ASAP so we could get our ducks in a row. Throughout the process we felt we received clear and honest information with communications from the vendors via the agency. Geraldine also was very helpful in getting us through the property several times prior to purchasing and kindly, after purchase so we could get a start on organisation for moving etc. We absolutely cannot wait to move in. This is a well-loved property, in an amazing neighbourhood and we are over the moon to have purchased it. Thanks for a smooth experience despite the urgency.
Cherish made this very stressful process so much easier. Her communication was outstanding. She was responsive, supportive, sensitive and professional every step of the way. I highly recommend her!
Good communication, market knowledge and professionalism
This is the third transaction we’ve worked on with Anita, and her approach has been consistent each time. She is experienced, direct and proactive in her communication. Expectations are set early and managed well, and we always know where things stand. Her knowledge of the local market is strong and her pricing advice is realistic. She works hard to ensure properties are well presented and positioned appropriately. She is a very skilled professional and we would highly recommend her.
Laura was an exceptional agent throughout the sale of 24 Gorman- she was transparent and helpful, and always picked up the phone for any questions at any time. We feel incredibly lucky to have got our dream home in such a painless and straightforward manner. If we ever sell this house (which I doubt is on the cards!!!) Laura would be our first port of call for our agent.
Laura is a phenomenal real estate agent who truly embodies enthusiasm, passion, and integrity in her work. From our very first meeting, it was clear that Laura genuinely loves helping clients and is deeply committed to their success. Het integrity shines through in every interaction, providing honest advice and always prioritising our best interests. Laura’s proactive approach and dedication made our home selling journey a 3-week miracle. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a brilliant young professional who delivers exceptional results with genuine care.
Shay’s communication was top notch, he is a really genuine guy also which made the experience all the more enjoyable. He is proactive and knows what he is doing, he goes above and beyond.
