We bought our home with Christine and when we decided to downsize and sell we went with her as well. Being older and finding the whole process quite challenging emotionally and physically we needed an agent who was in touch and sensitive to our feelings. Christine is very professional but also warm and sincere. We sold quite quickly and felt we managed with Christine's help to get a good price. We also found Christine very good when looking for a home. Not pushy but understanding and respecting our needs in a home. I would recommend Christine to anyone who is buying or selling a home.

Mario is a first class real estate agent, and a pleasure to deal with. He has a unique ability to explain a property honestly, but also to highlight its positives as he should. He brings a sense of gravitas, experience and ability to his dealings with buyers and sellers. He knows how to present a property properly and provides excellent advice on property preparation. His estimates are realistic and he works very hard to achieve them.

Mario Sanfrancesco has gathered a formidable team of highly professional agents who show their integrity with every transaction. They seek high and low for just the right buyer and I am thrilled to know the new owners of my beautiful home will now make their next chapter of memories there. I was well informed of activity and interest from potential buyers and went into the auction feeling, whatever the outcome, I was in the best hands. I could not be happier with the care and commitment they took through he entire campaign which enabled a result I was very happy with. I highly recommend Team Sanfrancesco.

The moment Gillian first visited and immediately left a postcard in the box describing her very accurate first observations, to how overjoyed she was at the sale, knowing her has been a delight. Always professional and knowledgeable and always friendly and available, providing reassurance where required, and information always, she has made what is a stressful time a rewarding experience

We recently had the pleasure of purchasing a property being sold at Auction by Christine. This was a very new experience for us, and given my husband was due to be travelling at the time of the auction, I expected that I would be quite nervous going into Auction Day without having him there to contribute and support. Christine was very transparent at the open home visits, in terms of discussing the expected price range based on the seller's expectations and her knowledge of the market. This gave us the confidence to know that we might be 'in with a chance', and to decide bid on Auction Day. Chrstine was also very helpful in letting us know what documents and signatures would be required prior to auction Day, given my husband (joint owner) would not be present on the day. Again, this helped us feel confident and prepared. Christine's communication was always timely, and she was very approachable throughout the whole process, making it very easy for us to ask her any questions (even they ones we thought may be silly). On Auction Day, Christine checked in with me periodically to ensure I was ok and calm. She was very reassuring, and a really lovely and helpful presence on the day. After the sale, Christine was very clear in ensuring we knew to get insurance organised, and knew what the next steps would be in terms of engaging with a solicitor to finalise the sale details. But she also ensured that we took time out to celebrate the purchase, take lots of photos, and meet the prevous owners! It was a very positive experience, and i would definitely recommend Christine should anyone be looking for an agent to sell their home, or looking for an agent from which to buy their home!

My husband and I purchased a property in O'Malley through Gillian at Blackshaw's Manuka. Gillian was so pleasant, professional, obliging and helpful throughout the whole process. We had to request a cleaner for the kitchen and she organised this over the Sunday before we moved in. We would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending any dealings with Gillian Thorn at Blackshaw's Manuka.

The Blackshaw Manuka team, led by Mario Sanfrancesco, campaigned energetically and professionally to ensure we sold our family home of 40 years for a near record price in a very tough market. Mario's skill as an auctioneer was outstanding. We thank him and his team for the outcome and recommend highly his services for marketing residential properties.

As soon as I saw the Blackshaw sign I knew there would be a real estate agent I could trust. After multiple house inspections I knew the real estate agent was an important factor for me in my decision to purchase a home. Luke Revet and his associate Emily were fantastic to deal with and I would highly recommend them. I appreciated the knowledge, prompt communication and friendliness in all of our meetings. Luke was warm, friendly and helpful. I felt supported in my preparations for auction and confident in its professional conduct. Buying a house is a big decision for most people both financially and in terms of a milestone event. Working with Luke Revet and Emily made this decision less daunting and more enjoyable. I appreciated their knowledge, professionalism, respect and warmth. I would highly recommend them.

I was very impressed with Giliian's professionalism and efficiency throughout the whole process and where she achieved a very quick sale on my unit. She initiated the follow-up of various jobs that required completion before the unit could be sold which saved me a lot of time and stress, and was very thorough with following through all the steps involved in the sale along with keeping me up to date the whole way through.

Gillian and her team were very professional, very thorough and extremely supportive. Gillian has a very sound knowledge of the surrounding area and very familiar with the properties and their attributes. She understands the processes and requirements of both the vendor and the purchaser, making both feel very comfortable and at ease. Her communication was consistent, timely and supportive. I would recommend Gillian vendors. I could not have been happier with the service I received.
