Recently we engaged David Buttel from Raine & Horne Neutral Bay to market & sell our parents townhouse. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone thinking of selling their property or to assist with any concerns to do with real estate. David was reliable, punctual, honest, helpful & kept us informed & up to date during all stages of the process from listing to settlement.

David has handled real estate sales in my family over a long time, and I trusted him to market my apartment honestly and strategically. It was coincidental that another unit in my building came on the market a week or so later than mine, presented better than mine, and had some amenities that mine did not. David acted strategically to ensure my sale was quick, and that the unit did not languish on the market because of competition from another, better, unit.

I have searched the right home to settle down in neutral bay for one and half years. During that period, I have failed in two auctions due to keen competitions for the properties I like. The agent of both is David. I was so depressed after the second lose and I thought I cannot find a suitable home. At that time David comforted me to say he will find another suitable one for me. I felt better but I was in doubt about that. Out of my expectation, he really did it in a very short time! I am very grateful for his help! In neutral bay area, David always has much more properties to sell than others. I believe that is because of his professional working attitude, clear knowledge of current market situation and impressive communication skills. Many vendors would like to choose David as the agent to sell their properties. In future, if I need service related to properties, no matter buying, selling, renting, I will definitely choose David and his Raine & Horne team as my agent.

David demonstrated true professionalism in his dealings with this purchase. He had an excellent knowledge of the area as well as what the apartment had to offer. He was realistic and truthful about price range and his willingness to negotiate on behalf of the vendor and ourselves showed a genuine desire for a win win result. The purchase of this property was an extremely positive and seamless experience.

Our experience with Hamish was very positive. Hamish is an extremely experienced and professional agent who guided us through our campaign and the auction process. We were well informed throughout. Thanks to Hamish's effort and energy he secured an excellent auction result that we were very happy with. We highly recommend Hamish.

David sold the property to me originally 17 years prior. His professionalism at the time lead me back. His advice in preparing the property & throughout the sale process contributed to a brilliant end result. David also facilitates a team of stylists and auctioneers who are not only as dedicated as he but each in their own right contribute to the outstanding end result. Thank you David & team!

I'm not an experienced home buyer, I've only inspected several properties and attended one auction and my first inspection was less than two weeks ago. However, I already signed the contract a couple of days ago and one of the reasons for such a quick decision wasn't the property itself but the attitude of the agent (Stewart and his team). I actually liked another property more and it was more convenient for me to pursue that property but I stopped considering it due to poor communication with the selling agent. Stewart was very friendly and open during my inspection of the property. He approached me first, answered all my questions and gave me some extra useful information. I also received the contract, price guide and strata report outright and one of Stewart’s colleagues gave me a call later the same day asking about my thoughts and providing even more useful details. I’m not naive (hopefully), I do understand that selling agents work for sellers, I read to never trust agents, but something was just right about my whole experience with Stewart and his team. So right that I decided I don’t want to miss such opportunity - good people to deal with + good property.

I invited Stewart to view my apartment and put forward a proposal. From the outset it was clear he knew the area well and was realistic about the potential. He was able to assist in negotiating a very great rate on the styling and then through the sales campaign both Stewart and Alexis were really responsive, keeping my partner and I updated. I was confident to let him do his thing and the auction result was above my expectations. Would definitely recommend using Stewart if you are selling in the Mosman/Cremorne/Neutral Bay area.

Hamish recently acted for us in selling a property. We were extremely happy with his eagerness, his hard work, honesty, and his skill in negotiating at the final stages. His tech-savvy approach to marketing put the competitors to shame. We had earlier bought through Hamish and were also struck then by his honesty in negotiations - you have more confidence making an offer, or upping an offer, when you have a decent grasp of what's actually happening with a property. Which leads to better results for the vendor... and happier buyers.

Wow! We are still pinching ourselves from the fantastic price achieved at Auction! Hamish has been with us throughout the entire journey from initially helping us buy our first home, to savvy renovating tips to helping with the decision to sell. He has a genuine care for people and his trustworthy manner makes him a unique and excellent leader in the industry. Throughout the whole campaign we received constant communication and he guided us at all times with honest and proactive feedback. He has incredible attention to detail and covered every base with precision, from sneak previews to private inspections, and most of all, his negotiation skills on the auction floor are extraordinary. He has incredible intuition knowing how to discover and negotiate with the strongest buyer to help the owners achieve the maximum price possible. Thank you again and we will always be grateful to him for his guidance and expertise over the years, and to the team for having our first sale go so smoothly.
