I enlisted Mario Sanfrancesco to sell my much loved family home. Mario and the team were professional, great communicators and realistic around the selling price. Mario achieved the best possible outcome for me and I have no hesitation in recommending Mario & will always be grateful for his expert advice and his attention to detail. What can be a very stressful time was in fact quite enjoyable thanks To Mario & the team.

Not Just a Pretty Face

At first I had my reservations that this handsome man could be an effective sales person, he was just too good looking. However 6 weeks from signing the agency agreement he had the property furnished, marketed, sold and settled. Thrilled with the result. Keep an eye out for this up and comer, I have him as a favourite for REIACT #1 Sales Person in 2021 #lookoutrichardluton

Debbie is a very professional real estate agent and an excellent communicator

From my first meeting with Debbie I was impressed by the market research she had undertaken prior to visiting the property. At her first visit she quickly, without prompting understood the best features of our home. Throughout the marketing process she kept me well informed of feedback from prospective buyers. I was confident that Debbie was determined to sell my property for the best possible price. I can truly say that I was very satisified with the outcome. I highly recommend her and the Peter Blackshaw Manuka team. Thanks guys!

A very successful sale.

Mario expertly guided me to a very successful result in the midst of the Covid crisis. As a “senior”, it was good to have regular updates, and positive feedback during the marketing campaign.

Great Service

We couldn't be happier with the service Christine provided to us during the sale of our home. Christine's experience and knowledge of the local real estate environment was clearly evident and her calm, friendly and professional manner gave us considerable reassurance in the days leading up to the sale of our home. Importantly Christine worked very hard to achieve the best sale price for our home. We highly recommend Christine to anyone thinking of selling their home.

Stressful and unprofessional

Stressful and unprofessional

I found the house of my dreams, being a newly single mum it was a exciting and nerve wrecking. Luke was extremely welcoming and approachable. Luke kept checking in to see my interest in the property as every agent does, however I explained that my financial situation would not meet the day of the Auction. Luke seemed to do everything in his powers to make this work for me and it made me trust luke and his experience. We agreed on a settlement and deposit to be paid on the day. After a few weeks luke requested a 5% deposit which completely caught me by surprise. This was absolutely not discussed in our agreement nor in the signed contract. Throughout all of this he has hassled me, abused my solicitor and made this an absolute nightmare for me. It has affected me mentally and physically and has made me no longer excited for this chapter. I have been threatened that the vendor could potentially place the property back on the market potentially leaving me in a huge amount of debt without a house to show for it. All I ask is for people to please be careful if something sounds too good to be true it may possibly be so. I'm still not out of the woods yet but have my fingers crossed everything will fall into place. I just Cabt believe a human being can be so selfish and not care about the impact of someone else's life in the process. Be careful

Christine was prompt with returning phone calls and responding to enquiries. She was punctual and very personable. I would not hesitate to work with Christine again.

A first-class experience from start to finish.

A first-class experience from start to finish.

Debbie is a true subject matter expert in her field of property sales. From the beginning of our appraisal right through to the end of contract exchange, her professionalism and attention to detail was exceptional. Debbie is open and approachable on all levels, who on many occasions, puts the needs of her clients before herself. Debbie went outside of her scope to ensure a smooth and seamless transaction, upholding the values of customer service beyond what was required of her. We cannot speak more highly of Debbie and want to thank her and the team at Peter Blackshaw - Manuka, for all their hard work.

Mario should be agent of the year!

Mario should be agent of the year!

Mario should be agent of the year. Mario and his team worked extremely hard for us and achieved an amazing result. It was a pleasure and an honour to have Mario look after our property. We will, and already have, recommended him to others. Mario has established himself as an agent who delivers and it’s not hard to see why. He sold our property in under 14 days, in a recession, during COVID restrictions for a price our previous agents could only dream about. Mario communicated with influence and worked hard to find his clients the perfect house to buy while meeting our goals. Mario understood our expectations and individual requirements from the beginning. Mario ensured we were kept informed and ensured we felt comfortable. He never missed a beat. Everything he anticipated came true which was invaluable to us. Mario’s drive was clear as he kept the wheels turning without needing to be prompted. Mario is an asset to the Blackshaw brand. Well done Mario you’re the best!!!
