We engaged Simon’s services as we had confidence in his market knowledge and experience . Throughout our selling process we felt Simon provided good feedback and guidance in what was a tricky market . He achieved an excellent result for us and provided a trusted professional conduit with our near neighbours and good friends who purchased the property Having Simon as agent enabled us to keep a good professional relationship with our purchasing friends so at no time did we feel our friendship would come under strain . Simons discretion and confidentiality was evident at all times and we never felt that was ever a source of concern. Our only point of concern came around the presenting of an extremely low offer which I felt was insulting from the potential buyer. This did knock our confidence somewhat at the time and I wonder if PGG should reconsider its policy of presenting all offers and think about offers needing to be within a certain percentage of market or govt valuation . Whilst I accept Simon had to present it we weren’t happy to recieve it . Overall we recommend Simon highly for his service and dedication and we would be happy to recommend to anyone selling farms in this market

Working with Sophie Armstrong was a great experience overall. Having someone so responsive made a huge difference — she was always quick to answer questions and kept me informed every step of the way. Her knowledge of the local market was impressive. Sophie helped me understand pricing, comparable homes, and what to look for, which gave me real confidence going into offers. We had a great time discussing potential in properties that we came across and when something quietly came up in the background she knew she found something absolutely worth my time! What really stood out was how she supported me in going for something that truly resonated with me, rather than just pushing me toward a quick decision. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, communicative agent who will advocate for you and help you find a home that feels right, I'd absolutely recommend Sophie Armstrong

Working with Shey is an absolute pleasure. She’s incredibly friendly, so easy to communicate with, and always picks up the phone. She is always striving to better understand my criteria - making the whole buying process so much easier. Her work ethic is honestly unbelievable — she goes above and beyond to get things done, a genuine hard worker. Highly recommend!

Was very easy to deal with, any extra information was provided with no fuss. Appreciated that our daughter was provided the same service we were given as she looked on our behalf prior to our viewing. Gave us plenty of time to view property and get a real feel of it. Can’t wait to be calling it home!
