Kim started strong the day she first came to our home to value it, showing attentiveness, respect and insight as she examined our 2 bedroom apartment carefully, listened to our questions, and provided really helpful practical advice about how to polish our place for the best outcome. After an outstanding first impression, we felt very comfortable with her marketing approach, as she met with us regularly at our home, explained her strategy, and taught us all about how to find the right potential buyers for the auction process. From the photography to the 'open for inspection' sessions, to the auction day itself, she has always been generous with her time, spot-on with communication, and collaborative with decision making. She finished even stronger, facilitating the sale at auction with straight forward ease and to the planned timeline, despite the challenges of COVID-19. We couldn't be happier with the outcome, and can honestly say out of all the real estate agents we have encountered to date, she is our favourite - approachable, diligent and extremely professional. All her hard work achieved very pleasing results, and she made us feel cared for throughout as well. Thank you Kim!

We bought a property from Robert. He is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He is good at giving potential buyers confidence which I think is the main thing in an auction campaign. Thanks again for all the help!

George and the team at First National were amazing. From start to finish they guided us through the sale of our mothers house with professionalism, kindness and compassion. Their knowledge of the local market was fantastic and they exceeded our expectation on every level. We highly recommend George and his team.

Robert has taken his time showing us the property. Robert has great knowledge of the market, he is creative in his approach, Robert got a good price for the vendor but he was able to vary the terms and provide a good deal for us the purchaser, and the vendor.

Robert Bagala, Richard Mion and their team sold our property when nobody else could… We had it listed with two other agents previous to them for close to a year without any success, a lot of frustration and disappointment. As soon as we hired Robert and Richard at First National, from the get go, they had a thought out plan and execution that was thorough, with extensive marketing and visibility which attracted the right buyers from the start. They ordered builders reports, strata reports, making it easy for buyers to jump online, download and take away any fears or misconceptions they had about our property. Their wording, photo’s, listing and presentation where next to none. Not only did they have a strategy superior to the rest they also had extensive communication skills when negotiating with interested buyers. They sealed the deal with a buyer within 3 weeks before going to auction. Highly recommended agents with a 5 star rating. Simon Elrahi 😊

After 70 years living in our beloved family home we made the difficult decision to put it on the market. George Agostino, Belinda McFarlane and all the team at First National guided us through this process with professionalism, positivity and respect. From the very first meeting we felt confident in the team. Their knowledge of the market; their advice to us about preparing the home; their hassle free attention to detail; and consistent updates made us feel reassured. We were extremely pleased to see our house sell for a price well above our expectations. We have no hesitation in warmly recommending George and his team as real estate agents of the highest calibre.

Our family chose Robert Bagala from First National to sell our home as he has a strong professional presence and a sound reputation in the Putney / Ryde community. He has excellent local knowledge and is an enthusiastic advocate for the many advantages of living in this area - which we knew would help to enthuse prospective buyers. Robert and his associate Jordan are open, clear, and forthcoming communicators. They kept us feeling part of the process from start to finish. They maintained a supportive and reassuring attitude at all times - helping to alleviate the stressors of selling. Robert achieved a great result at the end of a very quick 3 week period, with only a handful of open homes required. We would recommend Robert, Jordan, and the First National team to prospective vendors.

Robert was patient with our questions, as first home buyers we had a lot of them. He was very responsive and spent a lot of time explaining the process. We are grateful for his help and highly recommend him.

Very pleased to offer the following testimonial on Robert and your services I decided to sell my property in Sydney and was introduced to Robert by Debra Lombardo from Ryde Real Estate. Debra had been professionally managing the rental of my property since 2002 Living in Perth and with travel restrictions due to the COVID-19 Pandemic I was unable to meet with Robert but I quickly gained confidence that I had selected the right agent after receiving his Market Appraisal & Marketing Strategy Report .Regular market updates on Snap Chat moved us away from our initial plan to auction the property and we received and accepted a target price offer 10 days before the scheduled auction. A outstanding result in regards to both price and timing. Robert, Debra and the Team at First National Real Estate are very professional,efficient and friendly and I have no hesitation in recommending their services to manage the sale of your property.
