We can't thank Ben James enough for all of his profressonal skills is the sale of our home. He is a very trusting person who gave up a lot of his own personal time to help us in every way he could. His communication skills & personal attention to our needs were very impressive to say the least. We would not hesitate in using Ben & his team in the future.

Michael did a great job for us. No BS and very honest - what we appreciate in people. He priced our unit correctly, got good response in a slow market and sold within 2 weeks at a price higher than we asked for. What more could we ask. John and Shirley Hanes

Our real estate agent, Ben James has communicated well with us as clients. He's a well spoken and knowledgeable person. His assessment of the current market was up to date. We were impressed with the marketing booklet which was made for our house. Ben was highly successful at getting our property sold in a realistic timeframe making the whole process go smoothly. After the sale, he has remained in contact with us and has followed up efficiently to ensure we are on track with the sale.

After missing out on multiple houses around the area, I spoke to Michael & Erin around the particular property I was after and the price I could afford. Within a few weeks they had the perfect house for me, I was able to pre-inspect the home before anyone else due to being on their database and secure the home before another buyer was able to push above my price range. I definitely recommend them to anyone else and found them to be very honest, upfront and helpful which was very different to most of the other agencies around the area.

Michael was the agent who sold us the property in 2006 and has kept in touch with us throughout the following years. When we told him that we would be selling our house - his professional manner, outstanding knowledge of the local market and ability to connect us with prospective buyers made the sale process a lot less stressful. We can never thank him enough for enabling us to move on to the next stage of our lives.

At all times we have received excellent professional services, solid advice and friendly dealings with Michael and the team from Harcourts Dapto. On our recent sale of an investment property, Michael located several committed buyers and was able to negotiate a result $20,000 above our expectation. I will in the future continue to use Michael Garside and his Dapto Team to handle our real estate requirements in the Illawarra and wholeheartedly recommend Michael and his team to any prospective investors.

While searching for our first home, we spent over six months viewing properties and speaking with agents in the area. We eventually found our dream home which was listed by Ben James. Ben was extremely friendly and helpful from our first meeting and explained at the start that council approval for the property's new garage was not finalised. Knowing how badly we wanted the house, Ben liaised with certifiers, structural engineers and solicitors to get it over the line. As first home buyers, we were unsure of a lot of the protocol involved in purchasing a property, yet Ben continually made the process transparent, easy to understand, and was happy to answer any questions we had to reassure us along the way. Ben's knowledge of and aptitude for sales is second to none. Both sellers and purchasers should feel confident Ben will do his utmost to make the sales process smooth and stress-free for all parties.

After interviewing 3 agents to sell our house we went with Michael and Erin from Harcourts at Dapto they wernt the cheapest nore did they suger coat our selling price what they did was give us honest feedback and information based on current market trends and a huge client base of potential purchases we sold our property within 3 hours of it being listed which excelled our expectations and with Michael's communication style he made the whole process a dream he explained what to expect and in my opinion he delivered We would definately use his agency again well recomended Tim
