John was very professional in negotiating my purchase. He was always available for questions and requests for information were met with prompt replies. John always kept me well informed of the progress in the purchase and was instrumental in negotiating a deal to the great satisfaction of both parties. Thank you John I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Martha is a true professional. Martha did an amazing job managing our property whilst it was being rented. We employed Martha to take over the management of our property from a local Real Estate Managing Agent who we were very unhappy with and who left us with a difficult tenant and a stressful situation. Martha far exceeded our expectations taking complete control of the situation keeping all parties happy. We then employed Martha and Drake Real Estate to be the selling agent of our property. Martha kept us informed and up to date every step of the way, she is very experienced, has very sound market knowledge is friendly, fun and does not take herself to seriously. Martha helped to achieve an amazing sales result for us in 5 short days! Martha is very approachable, professional and I would absolutely recommend Drake Real Estate and namely Martha as selling agent and or rental managing agent.

I chose John as my agent because he had kept in touch for the last few years even though I had not planned to sell in the forseeable future. I thought if he's that keen with me he would also maintain great relationships with prospective buyers and gain their trust as he gained mine. The good result fulfilled my expectations.

Drake Real Estate have now sold three properties for us and continue to provide a fantastic service even securing a record price after the first inspection. I would recommend John and his team to anyone looking for great results in record time.

We would recommend John and the team to any vendor. The attention to customer service is excellent, and there are lots of little things that are done proactively that just go that little bit further. The strategies recommended were highly effective, and there was a constant flow of communication. The team that work with John are all highly professional and obviously enjoy what they do. From the time that we discussed putting the property on the market, to the day it was sold, there was a level of commitment to selling our property and getting the best price possible for us that we were very impressed with.

Chris and I were looking to buy out first home, we hadn't been in the market for too long before meeting John but that's not say we weren't feeling overwhelmed from it all! We viewed the property in the morning and signed the contract that afternoon! John was helpful and guided us through the purchase making the whole experience no fuss and exciting! We are now counting down the days until we move in to our new home and in years to come when we are ready to upgrade we'll be walking straight down to John's office! Thanks John and all those at Drake Real Estate for being friendly and genuine, you've made buying our first home so easy!

Thanks John and team for helping us achieve a great result in selling our unit in Collaroy. The team were persistent in following up interest and negotiated a sale price that was at the top end of John's initial appraisal. John is a down to earth and yet very professional and capable agent-would recommend Drake Real Estate to anyone in the Northern Beaches.
