Rosa was great at communicating without pressuring us with our recent property transaction - she has been most helpful with local knowledge and contacts to help us get set up.
Working with Rosa yet again, we know we can have honest conversations and debate how to best position the property for sale. It is also important to us that Rosa reflects our values when working with potential buyers, providing them a good service in their decision making as well. Rosa is easy to work with and we continue to trust in her to deliver a great result.
I honestly couldn’t recommend Sam and Andy more highly. From the very beginning, even months before I was anywhere near ready to list the property, Sam was incredibly supportive, friendly and happy to help, despite knowing that a listing was still a long way off. When it came time to sell, they went above and beyond. Sam even arranged cleaning for the property, which was just another example of how much they genuinely cared about making the process as easy as possible for me. I was initially quite nervous about the selling process and how long it might take, but Sam and Andy made everything feel effortless. The house sold within just one week, and I achieved considerably more than I had expected. Sam had already taken a few private viewings through the property before the first open home and had essentially found a buyer before I even needed to open the doors to the public. Working together as a team, Sam and Andy were fantastic from start to finish. Their communication, dedication, genuine care and willingness to go the extra mile made all the difference. I couldn’t be happier with the result or the experience. If you’re thinking about selling, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam and Andy. An absolutely outstanding experience!
Highly Recommend Sam Gorman and husband Andy from Arizto! Selling a house can be stressful enough, but when it turns into a whole chain of buying and selling properties, you need someone who knows how to keep all the balls in the air! 😂 Sam was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Her communication was excellent, she was always on the ball, and her hard work and dedication never stopped. It was offer after offer, plenty of moving parts and a few twists and turns along the way, but Sam and Andy managed everything so smoothly and professionally right through to the very end. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and we always felt we were in good hands. If you want someone who goes the extra mile, keeps you informed, gets the job done and doesn't give up when things get complicated, Sam is your person! Thank you, Sam and Andy, for all your hard work. You made what could have been a very stressful experience so much easier. We couldn't have asked for better service. Highly recommend!
Rosa is great to work with. Explains things well a professional in her field really .
Kayla listened to me, tried to understand and help me work out what I was looking for in a property. This was not easy..as I did not really know. Kayla is on your side, friendly and above all very professional.
Sam and Andy have been very helpful and thoughtful in helping us achieve our move. We were pointed in the right direction to view the house by Sam and enjoyed the pressure free viewing. Great prompt communication with any questions and queries and some good sense of humour chucked in the mix. Buying a house is always a stressful time but we have appreciated their help and care!
We really appreciated her proactive and helpful approach throughout our purchase of Mt Harding Road. Her communication was excellent, and her availability, even over the weekends, made a real difference. She was a pleasure to deal with, and we would happily recommend her.
Rosa put considerable fore-thought into how best to present and market our community owned and property that for decades has been a very important part of our town's social infrastructure. Utilized the national reach of Bayleys to ensure good exposure. Worked hard to understand the motivations and substance of each prospect. Kept up good communication with our committee and produced a result that satisfied all stakeholders of the property.
We really enjoyed sharing this experience with Sam & Andy and would happily use them again. As first time sellers we had a lot of questions and uncertainties which they guided us through to help make the process as easy as possible. The online approach to signing up, tracking the process and negotiations was very straightforward. Sam and Andy offered us a practical, professional yet friendly experience and stuck with us through the bumps in the road to ensure we got the sale we needed and the new home of our dreams.
