Gillian was the perfect fit for us. Her knowledge of the market was second to none and I fully believe that her recommendations allowed us to get the best possible price for the property. I have used Gillian as an agent previously as dealing with her is effortless and her attention to detail is remarkable. I would absolutely recommend Gillian to anyone thinking of selling their property.

Team Sanfrancesco are the best in the game and their results speak for themselves. A true team, lead by Mario who knows his stuff, combining his energy to understand and brings out the unique qualities of your property and his whole team are empowered to deliver the outcome. Their energy, professionalism and enthusiasm for what they do leads to great results. I have used them twice and broken the ACT auction record both times and smashed the suburb records to pieces. What else can you say, thanks guys for an amazing effort.......... who said selling a house is a stressful experience!!!

We purchased our place and Gillian was the vendor agent. She was great, very clear and transparent, super helpful between auction and settlement, and communicated very clearly and proactively with us through the whole process. Apart from that Gillian is just a lovely and genuine person who was a pleasure to work with. If we ever decide to sell we would be lucky to have someone as nice and capable as Gillian to work with. Thank you and happy holidays!

We chose Debbie, from Blackshaw Real Estate, to sell our home based on a personal recommendation and we could not have been happier. Right from the outset we clicked with Debbie’s personable and professional approach. Throughout the sales process her guidance and advice was spot on and timely. This was especially appreciated as we prepared our home for sale and marketed it during an extended lockdown when Debbie adjusted, with ease, to ever changing rules and regulations, all the time keeping us informed and in the loop. Debbie worked tirelessly, day and night, on our sale. She acted with honesty and integrity throughout and clearly drew on her many years of experience and exceptional knowledge of the market to achieve an excellent result for us. Debbie’s work is clearly a passion, not just a job. We have no hesitation in recommending Debbie to any seller, or buyer.

Gillian was recommended to us through our trusted agent who we previously purchased the property from many years ago. As we prepared for the sale of our home, I became caught interstate during Sydney’s extended 2021 lockdown period. Thankfully, Gillian became involved early and focused on making sure I was completely supported by all electronic communications. Onsite my brother managed the renovations, where Gillian supplied many great recommendations and valuable insights to help us best finish the property. When ACT entered the first lockdown period, Gillian quickly rescheduled everything and ensured us that she would meet and exceed all covid-safe requirements and safeguard the successful sale of our home. It took a powerhouse effort to manage the enormous conditions of the covid-safe campaign and inspection scheduling. She gave us and the prospecting purchases unwavering determination to support the 15 minutes in/ 15-minute sanitising, 30-minute cycle, for each viewing party. Gillian diligently spent most days onsite and maintained attendance to the empty property throughout the campaign and settlement period, providing video, phone, or email communication each day. I am appreciative of the compassion and attentiveness provided while I was stuck interstate, married with experienced and professional advice. Thank you for driving a strong covid-safe campaign and securing us a wonderful result.

I wanted to engage Mario based on his overall track record, especially in Inner South. I was not disappointed. He has excellent local knowledge and a friendly, engaging manner. He also had a good sense of the value of the house three months out from sale--no mean achievement in the 2021 market. The campaign was well-conducted and he was obviously a very capable auctioneer. I was pleased with the final price and would be happy to use his services again.

Once might be luck but twice is talent! For the second time I have used Mario and his team to sell my family home and for the second time not only suburb records but Canberra records were broken. Mario and is team are professional, affable, officiant and approachable. Their exemplary knowledge of the market and prospective buyers cuts through much of the preliminary ground work and associated stresses. Their level of experience and combined skill set instills confidence in the process. Communication is particularly note worthy. At all times I was kept up to date with every aspect of the campaign. Congratulations guys, well done and thank you.

Mario Sanfrancesco and his team at Blackshaw Real-estate were simply fantastic in assisting us in selling our much-loved family home. I can not recommend them highly enough. Mario was outstanding on auction day. His friendly, respectful and professional manner welcomed the bidders and his skill as an auctioneer produced an exceptional sale result. In the lead up to the auction Mario’s team assisted us to prepare the house for sale with very sound advice on painting and styling. The house looked beautiful for the sale. The professionalism shown through every step towards the auction and the kindness and understanding the team showed to us during the rigors of lockdown were exemplary. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. Our thanks go to Mario and the team and I strongly recommend them to anyone considering selling their property.

Debbie was an absolute pleasure to work with when selling our home. Professional in every way , exceptional communication and negotiation skills, honest and reliable. Despite the lockdown restrictions she achieved a good outcome for us and, it comes as no surprise, that she has such a great sales record. She is very reliable and someone who understands the market. she kept us informed throughout the whole selling process. A remarkable lady. We were so pleased that on the recommendation of a neighbour closeby who sold recently that we, like herself , chose Debbie . We have not regretted that we did so and, without any hesitation we too would recommend Debbie Maddigan to other prospective sellers and buyers. Our thanks also to Julie Lacombrade , her PA. who was efficient, helpful and again a delight deal with .

Mario had thoroughly impressed us from our first meeting with his friendliness, professionalism, courteous manners and vast knowledge about Canberra property market. Despite his busy schedule, he kept us in the loop with regular communications and meetings. He has a excellent team to back him up with his high standards. He is a great negotiator with a wide client base. He calmed our nerves on auction day and achieved suburb record sale price. We would strongly recommend Mario for property sales and would use him again in future.

We felt confident in Mario from our first meeting with him. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of the area and understands the market very well. He and his team went above and beyond to ensure our house was presented and promoted strongly while we were interstate. At auction he worked hard to deliver a very impressive result. We’d recommend him to anyone in the area.
