Selling from overseas

Our little house in Annandale was being rented through Cobden and Hayson when we moved overseas. David contacted us when we decided to sell and was able to explain the whole process clearly and with no fuss, he helped us find a solicitor and liaised with "Home Dressing" who furnished the house in order to best display the property. In short, living overseas meant we were so disconnected from the Sydney property market that we had to place all our faith in David, we took on board all of his advice with regard to marketing and strategy and within a very short time the property was sold and at a great price.

Brilliant campaign brilliant result

i cannot but praise the service provided by David. From the being to the sale David gave a very professional friendly service and excellent advice. When I hesitated and considered a lower selling price he reassured me and I took his advice. He is a very aggressive marketer ,always following up with potential buyers and seeking new offers. After a very short professional campaign we sold at a price that I was very well satisfied with . Best agent I have ever used Bill vlies

Ben managed our campaign with distinction!

We first met Ben Southwell during an open house within the area approximately a year before we listed. Ben’s professionalism, honesty, knowledge and rapport building is what impressed me immediately. Ben regularly checked in every few weeks following. I never once felt pressured or pursued. I wanted someone representing me that would go that extra mile, that would leave no stone unturned and that was 100% committed. Once we formally engaged with Ben after considering various options, we were on the market within 4 days. Ben helped with every aspect of the campaign including pre and post and guided us meticulously and honestly all the way. Ben insisted on high touch throughout the process and managed an outstanding marketing campaign including public relations. All with impressive numbers both online, print and open houses. The auction day was slick and professional as was the entire process. We were always going to get a good result with Ben and team but I didn’t expect all my expectations to be exceeded. From the minute we embarked on selling until the hammer went down we were engaged in a true partnership. Ben and Ben handled the selling of our property with distinction – I cannot recommend this personable hard-working team at C&H Annandale highly enough.

David was great to work with during the purchase and right up to settlement, consistently going above and beyond to make the process easier and more convenient for all involved.

Great communicator

I spoke to several agents before I engaged David to sell my unit. One of the characteristics that stood out for me was his communication and understanding of the local market. He was able to make the sale process less stressful than I expected by keeping me up to date with progress and providing updates following the open house process. He was also happy to provide guidance whilst I was looking for a new property. I was also very happy with the Cobden & Hayson approach to selling which included having other agents inspect my property before it was listed for sale.

Recent Purchase

Ben and the team at C&H were nothing but professional and went over and above what was required. Very genuine and helpful to us as buyers while working for the vendors, which I have found quite rare in the market. Ben has continued to help us after the sale in anything we need throughout the settlement period. Would gladly recommend Ben to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.

The best in market!

Julie is exceptional at what she does and I would not sell a house through anyone else. Her knowledge of the market, honesty and professionalism are truly unique and I was thrilled with the result she achieved for me.

4 Falls Street, Leichhardt

From a buyers perspective, Julie was very professional and polite to deal with. Julie always kept us informed of what was going on with the property, and was great to deal with after the Auction had finished.

Highly recommend Julie

We recently bought our house through Julie at Cobden & Hayson. She was open and professional throughout the process. It was very refreshing. She has a very good knowledge of the inner west and took the time to discuss issues associated with some developments in the local area where we bought. A pleasure to deal with.

If you want to sell your house don't bother going to anyone else but Julie

After many months of trying to sell our property with another agent for the second time and not getting any offers we changed to Julie Hatch's agency based on the fact that she had already sold a number of properties in the area. With in a few days she had arrange an open home and within weeks had secured a number of interested parties. Just over a month or so later we had the offer we wanted and the property was sold. My only regret is that I didn't use Julie in the first place.

PURCHASED A HOUSE FROM BEN

I PURCHASED A HOUSE FROM BEN IN 2015, BEN WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND ARRANGED A PRIVATE VIEWING FOR ME A LATE NOTICE AFTER MY WIFE SAW THE PROPERTY 1 WEEK OUT FROM AUCTION, THIS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO BUY THE HOUSE. A STRONG NEGOTIATOR AND A GREAT COMMUNICATOR, I ENJOYED HIS PROFESSIONALISM, ALBEIT I WOULD HAVE LIKE D TO PAY LESS BUT BEN WAS ABLE TO BROKER THE DEAL, IF I WAS GOING TO SELL MY HOUSE I WOULD DEFIANTELY RECOMMEND BEN AS I THINK HE IS ONE OF THE MOST DELIGENT ESTATE AGENTS IVE MET AND I KNOW THAT HE WOULD GET A GREAT RESULT FOR THE VENDOR. 5 STAR RECOMMENDATION !!!!!!!
