We had a great experience working with Jack and Sue throughout the process of purchasing our first home. They were both really friendly, helpful and responsive, and did a great job of keeping us up to date throughout the process. We really appreciated their communication, support and guidance, which helped make the experience of buying our first home a positive one. We would happily recommend Jack and Sue to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you both for helping us find our first home!
We had a fantastic experience selling our property with Sue and Jack. They achieved a great result for us with a quick sale, and the whole process was seamless from start to finish. Communication was excellent throughout, and their specialist knowledge of the local area really stood out. They were professional, approachable and made the entire process easy and stress-free. We’re extremely happy with the result and would highly recommend Sue and Jack to anyone looking to sell their property. A great experience all round!
Attention to detail when preparing marketing campaign. Everything carefully explained throughout to process. Kept vendors up to date with feedback from viewers and relevant information about the market in general. Her suggestions were invariably soundly based. Kim clearly had a firm grip on the market. And then there was perseverance and she evinced plenty of that. As indicated, totally professional, and a pleasure to deal with
Richard and Kim achieved an outstanding result, securing a sale in circumstances that were highly challenging for both the vendors and the purchasers. We would highly recommend them.

Mark has a great style of negotiating and is very experienced in real estate. Yvette is an amazing addition to the team, communication from both of them is second to none. We had some tricky issues to deal with and they still managed to pull it all together for a sale. I would highly recommend Mark and Yvette to anyone wanting to buy or sell - thank you

Mark and his team were amazing in helping us sell our home. They were supportive, communicative, and able to secure a very quick sale. Highly highly recommend! Would definitely use him again.
Sandra is tenacious in the best possible way - “never give up” is her motto, and she lived that throughout our whole campaign. We chose to list with Powers Realty because Sandra talked to us about what was best for the house and best for us - not just what was easiest for her as an agent - and because the marketing was incredible. It was considered, high-end, and highly visible, and it gave our property the best possible chance in a tricky market. We loved working with Sandra and her team, who made us feel like we were part of the team, too. Communication was excellent, the marketing reports were amazing, and we always knew what was happening and what came next. We really valued Sandra’s energy, clarity, and persistence, and would happily recommend her.
How lucky we were to have Helen on our side these past few months. She brings such a calm and confident presence to every situation, along with so much empathy in those moments when we were outside of our comfort zone. Her advice and guidance put us in the best possible position to secure an amazing opportunity, and she then went above and beyond throughout the sale of our home. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how it all turned out. Thank you, Helen, for everything.
Kim has been absolutely incredible through the process from the very start to the end phase. She was extremely accommodating with viewing times. She has been so friendly, knowledgable and made the whole process very easy for us.

Integrity is at the core of what we do.
