Ahmad, was committed from the time of engagement through to the sale. Ensuring a successful auction takes groundwork and consistent engagement. In my situation with the tenant at the property, the buyers, and myself. Ahmad gave me confidence throughout the process we would get a good outcome…and we did due to diligence and taking the time to understand all those involved. Thank-you.

From our initial inspection with Layla to the prior discussions with Christine we were anticipating auction day with hope . Their friendly and professional approach made our memorable day a success.

Excellent knowledge,network and service.

Ahmad set a realistic sale expectation for our property in what was a challenging time in the market. Our property, whilst beautiful with amazing views, was very quirky and would only appeal to a narrow demographic of buyers. Ahmad made us aware of this from the start, but he assured us that he would find us a buyer that loved the property just as much as we did. Ahmad kept true to his word and with the professionals around him, styled the home beautifully, arranged photography and video that captured the strengths of the property, and ran amazing marketing with high exposure. All of this resulted in a great campaign which netted us a sale price in line with with our agreed target. I can't thank Ahmad and his team enough for the hours of hard work that was put into the sale of our property.

I am thrilled to share my experience with Christine & Layla regarding the sale of my property. From the very beginning, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise in the real estate market. They provided valuable insights and feedback that truly highlighted the features of my property. Communication was always prompt and clear, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Auction of 12 Banyule Grove Conder

Very happy with the professional work provided by Christine and her assistant Layla. Very pleased with Christine's ability to achieve a good outcome with her negotiation skills when it seemed the auction had stalled. Was very calming in what can be a stressful situation. Overall very happy with the outcome of the auction and the process in general.

Best agent from a buyer view

I’ve dealt with many agents during my property search and upgrade journey, and Ahmad truly stands out. His market knowledge is exceptional, he explains pricing and market conditions with clarity and real data, not sales pressure. Unlike many agents who try to push the price or avoid direct answers, Ahmad is straightforward, honest, and respectful. His communication is consistent, transparent, and always professional. I genuinely felt he was there to help, not just to close a deal. One of the best agents I’ve met as a buyer.

Gillian was great to deal with.

Gillian represented her buyer well and was responsive to my needs as a buyer. She was engaged and well informed with all aspects of the property and sale requirements in the ACT.

The house never looked better in my 40 years of owning it. Sad to see it go, but it had to. Thanks to Ahmad and the styling team for their enthusiasm .

We had a great experience buying our home with Ahmad. He is very professional, always responsive, and made the whole process smooth. Since the first time we met, he was outsanding and supportive. We have met a lot of agents during our jouney to new home and he is someone we can trust as a profesional agent as well as a friend with a lot of advice and market movement. Highly recommended!

Here's a reworded version of your thank you message: We are incredibly grateful to Christine for her outstanding support during our first home purchase and later when we sold our home. We couldn't ask for a better agent to guide us through this process. Working with Blackshaw Real Estate has been a true pleasure. Christine creates a welcoming atmosphere and truly understands every detail we wanted in a home, as well as the nuances of selling. We deeply appreciate everything she has done for us, and we couldn't be happier with the results!

The auction was well managed by the Blackshaw team and Ahmad's post auction support was excellent and his flexibility was very much appreciated. Ahmad is highly attuned to local market conditions and expectations and is achieving good results. Overall this was a relatively relaxed process thanks to the Blackshaw team of Ahmad and Lucy.
