From start to finish a fantastic experience.

From start to finish a fantastic experience.

We found Yuri very professional, knowledgeable & helpful, but at the same time we felt relaxed & comfortable through our experience. Yuri was available for questions & private showings when we needed them. Yuri made the process of purchasing at auction effortless, not as scary as I thought it would be. We like the fact that when talking with Yuri it feels like you’re talking to a friend. Yuri will be our go to agent for any of our future needs.

Professional, reliable and trustworthy - absolutely recommend Bart

Professional, reliable and trustworthy - absolutely recommend Bart

From our first meeting, Bart showed his professionalism with information he had already prepared. It was clear that he knew the market and would work to provide the best possible outcome for us. He kept us informed of everything that he was doing and the interest that was shown by potential buyers. Once an offer had been made (which was not long after the property was placed on the market), Bart made sure that we obtained the best possible outcome. This included talking with the banks over the property valuation they provided - which I would think was more than you could have expected from him. Settlement is due shortly, and Bart has maintained contact in this time to ensure the finalisation of the sale. We have felt throughout this time that we could totally trust Bart to look after our interests and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs his services.

HOME TO HOME

I’m incredibly pleased with the service I received from Yuri Cattaneo for the sale of my home. The home selling process can be daunting but Yuri was fantastic every step of the way. From start to finish, it was an absolute pleasure! From our initial conversations and throughout the whole process, Yuri was professional. He is highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure I always felt like a priority. At each step in the whole process, Yuri came through with his commitment to excellence. His negotiation skills were first-rate – Yuri consistently found ways to get us the best deal possible. Yuri went out of his way to ensure every detail was taken care of – from arranging inspections to researching potential buyers.
