Sale of a waterfront property in Newport

Lauren Gardener worked with James Baker in the original purchase of the subject property some 4 years ago and now recebtly in the sale of the property. In both roles as agent for the original vendor and now for me as a vendoy Lauren was exceptional in her professional and effective manner. I would highly recommend Lauren and James and their agendcy Mc Grath at Avalon.

Sale of a waterfront property at Newport

James Baker is an experienced agent in the Northern Beaches. Approximately 4 years ago I purchased the subject property when James was the vendor's agent and now I have listed the property through James and it was sold a week ago. And so I have had contact with James as boyh a buyer and a seller. On each occassion James was professional and effective ----and enabled the outcome of both purchase and sale. I also compliment James's other senior sales person Lauren Gardener. She was professional, diligent and effective. Both James and Lauren worked outside a normal working week when attention to detail required immediate response. I have no hesitation in recording my highest compliments and regards to James and Lauren Graham O'Neill

We recently purchased a property and Lyndall Barry was the buyer’s agent. We found Lyndall to be very professional and quick to respond to our queries. Her facilitation of the transaction was friendly and seamless.

Outstanding result

James sold me the property over a decade again and because of my experience then he was the first and only person I selected to sell the property again, along with his colleague Lauren Garner. They gave me a very succinct overview of potential pricing along with a clear strategy to achieve a sale. Lauren conducted much of the house viewing programme leading to a successful sale at the top end of their price guidance. James was also involved and provided great support to Lauren as the process unfolded in what turned out to be quite a short timeframe. It was notable that they introduced prospects from well outside the Avalon area and indeed the purchaser lived outside the Sydney metropolitan area. Their knowledge of the local market is outstanding, the way they conducted themselves was always professional and the constant feedback and quality of communication was excellent. This was my eighth house sale as I have moved around the country for work and the experience this time around was outstanding. James and Lauren made it so easy.

Excellent and honest communication

Excellent and honest communication

Lyndall worked very hard to sell our property. I liked the approach the agency took to assessing the realistic market value of our home. I appreciated how Lyndall kept me informed every step of the way. After every open home she let me know who had attended and explained their situation and interest. I felt she had a good handle on how things were progressing so I felt informed the entire time with no surprises. Lyndall was lovely to work with and I felt like she really cared.

A team effort and everyone played their part

A team effort and everyone played their part

I was extremely happy with the way that the team at McGraths approached everything to do with the sale. It really was a team effort and everyone played their part. The two owners, James and Adrian, were very professional throughout, and most importantly I feel they were honest and genuine in their approach to me as well as any potential buyers. I couldn't be happier with the service.
