Megan and I found Rachel excellent to work with. She was very responsive with our queries and even when she didn't have the answers immediately to hand she quickly resolved any issues that we had leading up to the auction. Rachel kept us up to date with all the developments as the campaign progressed and we were able to update our stakeholders accordingly, this put us in a position to be able to purchase the property on the night. We are very grateful for Rachel and James and their support that they gave us and we are thrilled with our purchase..
My parent's 100 year old deceased estate bought 50 years ago was a little time capsule. So starting out on the sale process we wanted someone with empathy and understanding for what my parents home was and could be to the right buyer. While other real estate agents all suggested painting ceilings, remodelling kitchens, staging with modern furniture and generally spending a fortune Sarah and Julie were the exceptional exception from the moment we met them. Standing in the front doorway their first words were, "You don't see them like this anymore, don't you change a thing." Geometric brown and orange wallpapers, old style couches with matching upholstery, warped skirting, paint on sash windows that had seen better days, their advice shone through as genuine and authentic. They fully appreciated what they were looking at and told us to leave everything as it is. Do not pretend to be anything other than what you are. Our biggest pre photography task was making sure all the light bulbs went. By the end of their photo and drone shoot the house looked amazing, warts and all. Their communications were regular and informative and their advise invaluable the whole way through. When questioned they had convincing, rational reasons justifying their approach. Their experience, not just in presenting the house but in their ongoing marketing strategy, their communication and their advice on whether to accept an increased offer or push for more was flawless. Shaken hands were soon replaced with hugs and I sincerely couldn't recommend any Real Estate Agent more than Sarah and Julie. A fantastic team that I felt an integral part of. Thank you both for your tireless work and swift result in what is a very difficult market for sellers.
Rachel is a great agent to use when going through the sales process. She was always available to us, communication was excellent and we found her very knowledgeable. Nothing was ever a problem for her. The market was tough. She was happy to advise but final decisions were always ours.
Sarah is the President of real estate. She gives you her ages of experience and let's you know the finer points which turn the buyer or seller "ON" Call her to bring the buyer or seller "HOME" Her Skills are her precise words that get a property bought or "SOLD" Call her to get the job "DONE" Sarah Sweetlady
We had a fantastic experience working with our sales agent Alex throughout the process of selling our property. From the very beginning, he demonstrated strong market knowledge, professionalism, and clear communication, which gave us confidence every step of the way. He handled everything with great care and understanding. He kept me well-informed, provided honest advice, and always acted in my best interest. He attention to detail, strategic marketing approach, and negotiation skills ultimately led to a successful sale. I truly appreciate Alex hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their property.
Dermot and Sarah are a 5 star team. They are professional and experienced without being pushy. Their advice right throughout the selling was spot on and I just always felt I was in good hands. They both went above what was expected and delivered on all their promises. If they said I was going to get a report on a certain day I did. Also Dermot’s experience with aspects such as staging and contacts for gardening etc was invaluable. This was a deceased estate and both Dermot and Sarah were very respectful around this, and helped as much as they could to alleviate any stress. On auction day Dermot was so professional and we got our desired outcome in a tricky market. It was a pleasure working with Dermot and Sarah and I wouldn’t hesitate to engage their services again.
Right from the start Dean showed amazing attention to detail, and we felt in such expert hands the whole way through.He made the entire process easy!
Duke and his colleague, Shirlene, are very professional, knowledgeable, and patient agents. They gave me advice, listened to my concerns, and answered to my queries promptly. They helped me to communicate well with the overseas vendor efficiently. Highly recommend both Duke and Shirlene.
