Working with Monica during my apartment search and purchase was a very pleasant experience. Monica was confident, friendly, professional and reassuring with great local market knowledge. Her prompt response to all communications was excellent. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to sell or buy in the Lane Cove area.

Highly recommend Monica and the team at Belle Property Lane Cove! They sold our property off-market with little hassle and absolute professionalism. They have an great network of buyers and made the entire process incredibly smooth. If you are looking to sell, definitely give them a call.

I have known James for over 20 years. He has built a lot of trust and earned much respect due to his deep knowledge, experience, client-focus and excellent communication skills.

Working with Monica during my purchase of the property was a delight and very reassuring. Monica was always available, immediately responsive and informative throughout the whole process.

Patrick and the Belle Property team have strong communication skills and are focused on achieving the best outcome for the client (vendor). Patrick kept me fully informed on the open homes and despite a tough market Patrick maintained a positive mindset and achieved the best result possible in the market. Thank you to the Belle Property team - particularly the principals James Bennett and Patrick Lang.

I highly recommend Monica to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional real estate agent. Her communication was exceptionally clear and transparent throughout the campaign and negotiations. What set her apart was her ability to listen and take genuine interest in helping me achieve my goal and never pressured me just to make a quick sale. Thanks again Monica and all the very best.

We’ve lived in LC for 10 years and bought our place off Patrick. He is an agent we’ve always come to for advice over the years and has proven to be an excellent sounding board. From the moment we told him that we were ready to sell, he tempered expectations and the result ended up being exactly as he predicted. He’s very knowledgeable and in-tune with the market. Thank you, Patrick and team for getting us a result, even in this market!

James, Steve and the team were exceptional communicators, being open and honest about expectations early and running us through the process step by step so we knew what to expect. They organised the photoshoot of the apartment and even helped with styling given we did not want to pay for stylists / didn't have time with the campaign turnaround. We had a lot of disruptions along our process due to issues with solicitor, potential buyers changing their minds, and a softer residential market given the AU Budget / rate hikes... but Steve and the team did not miss a beat in communicating relevant changes to us and coming up with a plan to move forward. We had a Whatsapp group chat which we used regularly, and they always picked up the phone when I called, or called me with updates as they came through in real time. This was even the case when I travelled to the UK for work during the campaign for two weeks, with Steve and James both keeping me in the loop with all developments. They were able to come up with solutions on the go for complex problems regarding solicitor availability and one buyer pulling out of their offer unexpectedly, which gave me and my partner a lot of comfort through the process. The team at Belle are very good at thinking on their feet and having realistic expectations, and backing themselves to get an outcome which we did. In terms of sale price, it was in line with my expectations given the market has softened, but they were able to get a good price for the backdrop. They were also very generous when we sold the place buying us a bottle of champagne and celebrating the sale. Really appreciate the hard work and glad we went with Belle Property. Could not be happier with they way the team handled the process and will definitely be using them going forward. Would highly recommend using Steve, James & the team if you want to get a good outcome, be kept fully in the loop and enjoy the process along the way. Well done team!

Both Simon and Kim kept us well informed regarding the prevailing and moving market conditions and the necessity to meet the market during negotiations with prospective buyers. Considered advice was given with respect to the presentation of the property, and they were most professional and informative in their reporting during the selling campaign.

Dealing with Monica and the team has been a good experience. From pre-sale, to the marketing and sale process through to settlement, they have maintained an unmatched level of professionalism and that made the whole process a pleasant experience. I would highly recommend the Monica and the Bell Property Lane Cove Team.

We went to James as he had sold another property in the block 2 years ago. We had a particular time frame to complete the transaction to meet the requirement of regulatory and financial management. James understood our need well and started early negotiation with potential buyers. He feedbacked timely the buyer response and market development update, enabling us to make decision on sales. The property were sold even before it was listed so we saved costs on advertisement and avoided uncertainty due to market fluctuations. We really appreciate James' professional service and we would obtain his help in future transactions.
