We are both early 60s and were nervous about the large decision on selling our family home and then buying in a new area for us. We immediately loved this place but need to sell first to know if we could be in the market. Mark was immediately attentive, informative and encouraging even though we may not have been able to be genuine buyers. Once we sold, he continued in that vein, available but not pushy. His style really helped us work through and make our decision and our offers in our own time. We have also appreciated his service and support since the immediate sale was made. His professionalism has been first class. He of course represents the vendor but brings with that a really good balance of working with us, the buyers. He and Liz work really well together which means one is always available

We had a great experience selling our apartment with Mark and Liz at Cobden & Hayson. As we were interstate for most of the campaign they managed everything from property preparation, styling and staging through to buyer feedback and regular updates, making the process seamless and stress-free. Together, Mark and Liz worked as a highly effective team and guided us through every step of the sale. Their local market knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail were excellent. They were always realistic, proactive and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for us. We were extremely pleased with both the process and the result, and would highly recommend Mark,Liz and the Cobden & Hayson team to anyone considering selling their property.

We recently purchased an investment property through Mark and had a very positive experience from start to finish. He was professional, approachable and consistently responsive. His knowledge of the local market gave us confidence that we were making an informed decision, and we appreciated his honest and transparent approach. Overall, Mark was a pleasure to deal with and helped make the buying process smooth and efficient. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell in the area.

I had a great experience working with Mark on the sale of my property in Balmain. Mark provided clear, data-driven advice from the outset and ran a well-structured campaign. He was highly professional, organised and communicated consistently throughout the process, ensuring I always felt informed and confident in the approach being taken. He has a strong understanding of the local market and brought a calm, measured approach that made the entire experience feel smooth and well managed. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone considering selling in the Inner West.

I am thrilled with the outcome of the sale of my unit. Thank you for your hard work and expertise which has led to the result. I know this little unit generated multiple inspections . it was clear you had a lot of buyer communications to deal with. Thank you for organising all the pre-sale work also : re- painting, choosing carpet colour, styling and cleaning. I felt totally confident following your expert advice.

We would like to convey our thanks to Mark and the Cobden Hayson team for their exceptional professionalism throughout the sales process of our property in Birchgrove. Mark was an outstanding communicator—highly responsive, knowledgeable about the current market, and consistently able to instil confidence. Mark worked alongside Liz on our listing where their responsiveness to us as the sellers provided strong reassurance that the buyers were receiving the same high standard of communication and service. All important discussions were followed up with clear and timely written communication, ensuring accuracy and transparency at every stage. Mark's attention to detail in relation to the property was exemplary and made us feel fully supported and genuinely partnered in the journey to achieving the best outcome. Mark demonstrated a high level of expertise in navigating the housing market and showed a strong ability to adapt effectively as market conditions evolved. We would not hesitate to recommend Mark and the Cobden Hayson services.

We bought our house off Sam 16 years ago and were delighted when she said "yes" she'd sell it for us. Sam is the upmost professional. She knows her market, is honest with her advice and feedback, and is professional in every sense of the world. Most importantly, as we moved interstate, she managed every aspect of the sale (from handymen to painters to styling) and went above and beyond what we had expected and hoped for. She is an excellent communicator. We were very happy with how she handled the sale - she got us a great price - and know she had our best interests at heart right up until settlement. I'd highly recommend her and hopefully will use her again in the future!

Ours was a deceased estate disposal of the family home. Mark was sympathetic to our needs. Mark worked everyday to coordinate an on target refurbishment of the home, fantastic marketing plan and committed to me and my sister separately throughout the process. His briefings to us were terrific and he managed to remove the anxiety from an extraordinarily emotional time. I cannot recommend Mark’s services more highly.

Mark achieved a great result selling the home we had bought from him 16 years ago. The strategy, planning and execution was spot on. I particularly enjoyed his professionalism, the level of skills and experience he brought in and his friendly manners.

Our experience was terrific. Not having sold residential property for many years Samantha ensured that we were informed at all stages of the process, She is a dynamic, open and honest agent. She worked well with her colleagues and proved to be very knowledge about the market. She provided detailed follow-up information after inspections in a timely manner, and was always encouraging and supportive of additional potential buyer requests. She guided us through the pre-auction sale and the period beyond. We would not hesitate to recommend Samantha Elvy to others thinking of selling their property.

I have previously sold through Samantha, so I knew she was the person to sell my home this year. Great communication, easy to work with, excellent understanding of the market, and got the result I was after. Sam was also very helpful in organising so many aspects of getting my property ready to put on the market. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent. I have dealt with Cobden and Hayson Balmain several times now and have always had an excellent experience. Many thanks, Danny and Sam!
