We had a great experience working with Simon. He is an excellent communicator, always quick to respond, and kept us informed throughout the entire process. Our settlement was quite challenging, but Simon provided outstanding support, explained everything clearly, and always worked to find the best solution for everyone involved. We were very satisfied with his professionalism, communication, and organisation, and we look forward to working with Simon again in the future. Highly recommended!

I have had the pleasure of trusting Jennifer with the sale of my house. She is hugely knowledgeable and professional. But the things that stood out to me was how she listened and understood my anxieties, not pushing me but partnering me. She communicated and never left me dangling but always answered my texts quickly. I felt so dumb at times with all of the legal and real estate speak but she patiently explained things. She encouraged me to get my house looking sale worthy and congratulated me on work I had achieved. She made me feel very proud of my effort. Not only has Jennifer sold my house at a price I never thought I could get but she has assisted me in the purchasing of my new dream home. I'm so grateful and thankful for Jennifer Starr, and also Harcourts who I would highly recommend for their integrity and professionalism.
Good communication, in tune with what her buyer wanted. Very thorough in given me the information i needed. Knew who i was when i rang her good marketing skills

A fairly low value and difficult property to market which was seized by Tracy with recommendations as to presale preparation which were adopted by the vendor and a sale at a top price was achieved in a multi-offer situation. Couldn't be more complimentary and highly recommended to any vendor/property owner.
Renee went above and beyond, ensuring we were kept in the loop and helping to coordinate with third party builders etc. She was personable and professional throughout the whole process, very helpful and provided guidance where appropriate. Thanks Renee!
Dianne was very helpful and patient as we went through the due diligence process.
Very responsive and knowledgeable. Thanks for getting us into our first home Mike!
I had a really positive experience purchasing my first property. From the beginning, Simon listened to what I was looking for and understood the type of property that would suit me. That made a big difference, especially when you're both busy and you're learning your way through the buying process. It also helped me feel confident to put forward a strong offer when the right property came up. Simon was friendly, responsive, professional and easy to communicate with throughout the process. I also felt comfortable asking lots of questions and appreciated his help arranging access for due diligence inspections. I would happily recommend Simon to anyone looking to buy in the area, as he made the process much easier from a buyer's perspective. Thank you, Simon. Hopefully we can do another one in the future!
