We recently sold our apartment in Campbell through Blackshaw, with Debbie Maddigan being the principal agent for the sale. Throughout the campaign, from our initial meetings to after sales service, Debbie was professional, thorough, calm and encouraging in her dealings with us. We highly recommend her to other potential sellers, and would have no hesitation in engaging Blackshaw, in particular Debbie, in the future

Gillian assisted us with purchasing our property in Canberra. Being from out of state, Gillian kindly stepped us through the processes specific to purchasing property in the ACT. She responded to a large number of queries from myself, via email and text message and each time Gillian's response was timely, accurate and friendly. Thanks Gillian.

I had a very positive experience selling my home with Luke and Emily. They listened, they kept me informed and they continually updated the plan as things rapidly changed in the real estate environment during all the rate rises. They both gave great advice and made sure that all my choices were informed. I would not have trusted anyone else with the sale of my family home.

Zach went above and beyond to sell our property. He is young, ambitious and enthusiastic but with a maturity beyond his years. When he said he would work “day and night” to sell our property we didn’t take him literally - but he responded to our texts and emails immediately, regardless of the hour of the day. He showed people through our property first thing in the morning and last thing at night, sometimes for the same party. We observed him to be particularly skilled at managing the various stakeholders involved in a sale - always polite and professional regardless of the pressures of the situation. Zach also helped us to buy our “forever” home - so although we hope not to need a real-estate again anytime soon - we’d recommend Zach and the team at Peter Blackshaw Manuka!

I would like to thank Mario and his team for their helpful advice and suggestions, from our very first meeting several months ago. With rising interest rates and a market in decline, I could sense Mario’s sincere desire to assist us. I appreciated Mario’s frank and honest appraisal throughout the selling campaign, and am very pleased that he achieved a sale for me. Thanks to Mario, Anthony, Keshena and all the team.

From the onset, Luke and Emily were friendly and approachable. They had in depth knowledge about the property, market and the auction process. They were engaging, thorough and were professional from start to finish.

Mario listened closely to our needs and delivered a marketing campaign that exceeded our expectations. The marketing material was professional, polished and perfectly showcased our home. The material clearly resonated with the target audience, with nearly thirty groups through in a single showing. Mario kept me up to date and provided honest feedback. Despite a disappointing auction and anxiety arising from successive interest rate rises, Mario maintained a positive attitude and was extremely diligent in contacting prospective buyers. In a tough market, he achieved a result that was probably a win-win for both seller and buyer; a bit below our expectations that had been set the prior year, but realistic in the changing conditions. Congratulations Mario on achieving another suburb record! You promised us that we would not regret choosing you as our agent, and you were right :)

Luke was always willing to help with any questions we had about the property we purchased, before during and after exchange. Luke and Emily made us feel welcome and well oriented with the home, and were quick to relay messaging between ourselves and the sellers whenever necessary. It was a very smooth buying process!

We hadn’t heard of Gillian prior to asking her to handle a sale for us in an apartment building in inner south Canberra. She had sold another similar property in the same building and we saw her name there. This wasn’t an easy sale - a declining market, post Covid and a (good) tenant in place but their lease not expiring for eight months. But a sale was our objective, asap. So not straightforward. Gillian was excellent from the beginning to the end. A commitment to constant and quick communication with us as vendor and interested potential buyers, attention to detail, good and wise advice on strategy, competitive brokerage, a mature ability to balance the needs of all parties including the inbuilt tenant and she has excellent market and legal knowledge. We got a sale, not top of market $$$, but we knew our circumstances and timing and Gillian was persistent and proactive in achieving a reasonable result - very satisfactory to us. Gillian couldn’t have tried harder. We would unreservedly recommend her on all counts. Old style service. Highly recommended

We were in a unique position in that we not only sold a property with Mario and Team Sanfrancesco we also purchased our new home with the team. Every one of our requirements was managed with extreme professionalism and the team were always available to answer even the most random of requests throughout the campaign. A pleasure to work with and would recommend to anyone selling a property. Thank you for everything.
