Not a word usually associated with RE agents but Mel was honest when showing me properties, pointing out any serious weaknesses. I had shared my objectives at our first meeting and it is easy to get distracted by all the options but Mel always kept me on track!
Mel was very responsive and helpful
10 days after listing our property, an offer was made and has since been confirmed as sold! The marketing, which included an online presence backed up by great photography,led to a lot of favourable comment. Thank you Tim and Natalie for your professionalism and empathy throughout the process.
