From the initial enquiry put out to multiple agencies, Rob stood out with his prompt communication which continued during the entire process. When Rob first visited the house he understood what made my home a special place to live, not just a house. I hadn't found this with other agencies. Rob was professional throughout, explaining the process in a down to earth manner, showing considerable local knowledge of the housing market and best marketing strategies for my home. Rob recommended ideas to show the house to its best, which were sensitive to my financial situation. Some options I suggested, Rob advised he did not consider necessary. This provided me with confidence that Rob understood what buyers were looking for and what was or was not important to spend my money and time on prior to marketing. Rob was sensitive and honest in this respect and was honest in pointing out anything he thought should be improved, as opposed to other agencies who did not have any suggestions and I felt were just after a quick and easy sale. I found Rob approachable and no question was a bother, with Rob putting in the extra effort over and above to achieve the best result in the best time frame. Communication was always very prompt and courteous. Rob exceeded my expectations of negotiating the house sale process to be as supported as possible with minimum stress. I highly recommend Rob
Rochelle advised us on marketing the property and we followed her advice and the sale reflects her hard work.

We honestly couldn’t be more grateful to have had Kelly help us through such a huge milestone for our family. ❤️ Buying our first home came with plenty of nerves and questions, but she was always so kind, patient, supportive and genuinely caring throughout the whole process. Thank you for helping make such a special and emotional journey a little easier. 🏡❤️ We couldn’t recommend you enough! xx

I have already shared thoughts about Paula as an agent. She sold me my new house and sold my house. I liked working with Paula. I found her to be down to earth and easy to communicate with. She displayed iniative when we had no buyers looking at the house by working outside of the box to 'put the house out there', much to my delight. I would reccommend Paula to anyone.
Nicky came highly recommended, and for good reason. She spotted potential in my house that other agents had missed, put in real effort to prepare it for market, and helped me achieve a sale price beyond my expectations. I'm telling everyone about her!
