Kelvin was fantastic to work with throughout the entire process. He was always friendly, quick to respond, and super willing to help whenever we needed anything. His professionalism and genuine care made everything smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Kelvin to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive real estate agent.
Ethan and Joy worked extremely hard to help us achieve the sale of our property. They are excellent negotiators and were able to achieve the results we wanted. Communication throughout this process was thorough with updates at every step along the way. We had full trust in Ethan and Joy along the way, and are happy with the outcome achieved. Would definitely recommend Ethan and Joy to others.
Sharon took the time to listen to us in order to really understand what our situation was, and our needs were. Sharon was thoughtful, enthusiastic, and went the extra mile for us as buyers. We would recommend Sharon to anyone :)
I had a fantastic experience working with Ethan. I was able to buy this desirable house due to Ethan's kindness, professional experience and excellent communication throughout. I found the entire experience a straightforward, honest and targeted my needs. Throughout the entire process, he kept my updated on the progress in a timely manner and promptly answered all my questions, making everything go smoothly and stress-free. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a stress-free real estate experience. If anyone wants to buy a house in Somerville, you must contact Ethan.
It took just one month from our first contact to a successful sale, with most of that time simply dedicated to my own final property preparations. Remarkably, just three days after listing and after only one weekend of Open Home, we secured a satisfactory pre-auction offer—a commendable feat in today’s challenging market. Ethan's expertise regarding properties in the Eastern suburbs is unparalleled. His familiarity with my local community and even the developer's background left a lasting impression of sheer professionalism. His objective and pragmatic approach to managing price expectations was spot-on, perfectly paving the way for the final successful transaction.
We feel very lucky to have had Ethan to help us with the purchase of 29 Bronte Place. He always professional, kept us updated and informed through the whole process. Ethan consistently followed up on our behalf, always reminded us of what needs to be done. Make sure everything stayed on track. We truly appreciate his support and feel fortunate to have had this purchase and would highly recommend he (and his team) to anyone who looking for the new home.
We sold our house with Ethan and Joy, and the experience was simply outstanding. They were incredibly professional, communicative, and dedicated from day one. They provided excellent advice on property presentation and kept us fully informed throughout the entire campaign. Their hard work and deep understanding of the local market truly paid off, delivering a result that we are absolutely thrilled with. We couldn't have asked for a better team to guide us through this process. Highly recommended!
Maggie and Ellen were absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the sale of our house. They worked very hard, were detail-oriented, and were always patient in answering all of our questions. Even though we live in Canada and they are in Auckland, the time difference was never a problem. They often replied after hours or first thing in the morning, which we truly appreciated. Since we were not in New Zealand during the process, they took great care of our house on our behalf. They helped coordinate cleaning, repairs, staging, and many other details, which gave us great peace of mind. Their communication was always clear and easy, and they both have great interpersonal skills, which made the negotiation process much smoother and less stressful. They also have a strong sense of the market and gave us thoughtful, practical advice throughout the process. Their company was efficient in preparing and handling the documents, making the whole experience smooth and well-organized. We are very grateful for their hard work and would definitely recommend Maggie and Ellen to anyone planning to put their property on the market.
We are truly very grateful to Ethan Wu and his team for the outstanding service they provided. As we were overseas throughout the entire process, and the property had been rented out for many years, there were many issues we couldn’t handle personally. From start to finish, Ethan Wu was professional, attentive, and highly efficient. He explained every step of the selling process in detail, provided clear and expert advice, and handled all negotiations with great care. Communication was always smooth and timely, which made the entire selling process very seamless. Thanks to his professionalism and sense of responsibility, our property was sold at an ideal price. We are sincerely thankful once again!
