Having bought and sold a few properties in the past, we knew exactly what we wanted in the way of a real estate agent. In my opinion, too many sellers are tempted to list with the agent who suggests the highest selling price. Or an agent who is a long term friend. Or someone who lives close to the property being sold. All too often, the agent who suggested the highest selling price is the first one to come along after a few weeks asking that the price be lowered to "meet the market". We wanted an agent with a proven track record selling properties similar to ours. An agent who handles open homes in a professional manner. An agent who knows people in the area and knows how to network with those people. Basically, we wanted an agent that understands marketing. If that agent happens to be a good friend, that's a bonus, but not a requirement. After considerable thought, we felt that we would like to have two agents jointly responsible for selling our property. Having Nicky Horsbrough and Robin Kerr at Harcourts The Difference working together gave us total confidence that our property would sell relatively quickly and at a price that we felt the property was worth. We were very satisfied with the entire process from taking great photos and video recordings to formulating great marketing packages and appropriately positioned signage, everything ran very smoothly. We highly recommend a two-agent marketing team and, in particular, Nicky and Robin.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ At 82, selling my home at 5 McLeod Road in South Head was a big step. So many wonderful memories there over the years. Kara at Arizto made the whole process simple and stress-free, always keeping me informed and looking after me. I’m especially grateful to the buyers for allowing me to still pop in now and then. That truly means a lot. Very thankful all round. Murray Whitten
Jane is the best agent I have ever worked with. she has gone above and beyond to get my property sold. Jane and the rest of her team are great to deam with- there is plenty of friendly banter, and if genuinely feels like a happy little family at Burmester Realty. I have brought and sold 3 properties through Burmester Realty. Which says it all. Jane is extremely professional, always goes the extra mile, and I swear she has got fitter walking around my farm iced the hills than she has climbing mountains! I would recommend Jane to anybody without hesitation
Jane was honest, thoughtful and got our property sold! We valued her opinion and she got the price we wanted! Selling two of our properties in a short amount of time Jane was helpful and always happy to chat about our options. Highly recommend!
Selling in the current market has been hard work, however Jane got us there in the end which was not an easy task. Thanks heaps Jane for making this process a little easier for us.
We will engage Lesley if we sell or purchase property in the future. Lesley did her work in a manner that made us at ease. Her conduct was based on ethical and business principles, that we have not found previously when selling or purchasing property. I will highly recomend her to friends and business partners. Overall a very positive experience with Lesley and an excellend outcome.
A pain free easy experience under the circumstances of recently losing my husband. We Built our property together over 20 years ago and now this time for my next move I couldn't rate Jane highly enough she was at wonderful communicator and made the whole process smooth and supportive
Jane went above and beyond through this whole process. As we haven't done this for over 20 years we were struggling with what to do. We had more than a few curve balls thrown at us and Jane guided us through, kept in contact daily and supported us. I would not hesitate to use Jane for selling or buying, she's outstanding in what she does. Thanks again for everything!
We have been looking for a home with a bit of land on it for over 3 years, and finally we found one. Graeme was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the area and the property itself. He made the process really easy, highlighted things we hadn't even thought of that made our decision very easy. I've dealt with a lot of real estate agents over the last 3 years and have found Graeme to be one of the best.
Graeme was excellent to deal with selling our property. Kept us in the loop with the progress each week and always positive. Thank you for your hard work, patience, and diligence. Highly recommend!
