Sale of property at 2667 Nepean Rd. Rye

The property has been in the family for 40 years. When I was recommended Sam & Narelle Crowder Real Estate I found them to be very professional & of great assistance in de- cluttering & styling. They really listened to what I wanted to do in selling my property privately. They also recognised the era of the house & maintained that look for open for inspections. I can only highly recommend them & the committed efforts in selling my family holiday home.

Honest professional agent with strong local knowledge

From our very first meeting we knew Sam was the agent for us. He provided honest, straightforward feedback and demonstrated strong local knowledge. He guided us on how best to prepare our home for sale, helping us present it in a way that would achieve the best possible result. Throughout the entire campaign, Sam and Narelle maintained constant communication, always keeping us informed and supported every step of the way. He was down-to-earth, easy to deal with, open, caring, responsive, and highly professional. Our house sold quickly for a great price and the entire experience was a positive one from start to finish. We felt confident and well-advised throughout the process and would happily recommend Sam and Narelle at Crowders Real Estate to anyone looking to sell.

We had a fantastic experience working with Sam in the sale of our mum and dad’s house.

Sam showed excellent knowledge of the local market. His pricing strategy was well-researched and realistic, which helped attract strong interest early on. He provided valuable insights into buyer behaviour and current trends, giving us confidence in the decisions we were making. One of Sam’s standout strengths is his negotiation ability. He handled buyer interactions with confidence and professionalism, working hard to secure the best possible outcome for our family. We truly felt he was advocating for our interests at all times. Throughout the process, Sam conducted himself with integrity, respect, and genuine empathy—especially important given the sentimental value of selling a family home. His attention to detail and commitment to achieving a great result were evident in everything he did. We’re incredibly grateful for Sam’s support and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their property.
