About Michelle
Transitioning to the real estate industry felt like finding my tribe. I truly love the pace and dynamism. I thrive on the collective energy created in this ultra-enthusiastic, dedicated team of ours. Although my mantra is to not look back, I can't help but be proud of where I come from and what I've achieved. Its the reality check that energises me to keep active and in the race. There is always more to accomplish, more records to set, and more vendors to thrill. Hayeswinckle is the vehicle for us to take it up another gear, to channel our significant momentum into a Geelong-focused brand springboard from which we can expand regionally. To say it's exciting is an understatement. It's truly exhilarating. As long as I continue to experience that amazing buzz from sealing a great deal, from dropping the hammer on a record-breaking auction, I know I'm in the right place. Meanwhile, I'm proving to my five young children that hard work and passion have their own rewards and that nothing is as powerful as believing in yourself.

A dedicated team that truly goes above and beyond

We recently sold our property through Hayswinkle Highton and were extremely impressed with the professionalism and dedication of the entire team. In particular I we would like to thank Michelle Winkle and Sophie Spowart. From the start, they demonstrated exceptional market knowledge and provided honest, realistic advice about current pricing, buyers expectations and the current market conditions. They were transparent throughout the process giving us confidence that we were receiving genuine guidance. In particular, we were impressed by the communication and follow up in what is a tough market. We were kept informed after the many inspections and associated buyer enquiries. Their responsiveness was outstanding. The team worked incredibly hard to maximise the exposure of our property and for that we were very grateful. Their persistence was amazing. I thank the team for everything they did. They definitely know the market, provide honest advice, excellent follow up and caring customer service. We highly recommend them.

Outstanding Service and Excellent Results in a Challenging Market

I had a fantastic experience working with Michelle Winckle to sell my investment property. From start to finish, Michelle was incredibly organised, professional, and proactive throughout the entire process. Communication was one of her greatest strengths. She was always contactable, responded promptly to any questions or concerns, and actioned anything I needed almost immediately. It gave me great confidence knowing I could rely on her every step of the way. The market was quite slow at the time, and despite having very little attendance at inspections, Michelle remained positive, determined, and focused on achieving the best possible outcome. Her persistence and expertise paid off, as she was still able to secure a great price for the property under challenging circumstances. The entire sale process was handled smoothly and efficiently, right through to settlement, which was completely hassle-free. Michelle's professionalism, dedication, and commitment to her clients really stood out. I would not hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone looking to buy or sell property, and I would absolutely consider using her again in the future. Thank you, Michelle, for your outstanding work!

Trust and faith in Hayeswinckle paid off without any worries

Right from my initial contact with Michelle and Sophie, I felt comfortable with them selling my home. They were extremely confident and knowledgeable in the Newtown area and immediately I was able to relax and leave it to them. They held 2 Open for Inspections and sold the property in just 2 1/2 weeks. I am so happy with the entire process and thank Michelle and Sophie immensely.

Excellent agent with great contacts

Rachael was a fantastic agent to work with on our recent sale in Waurn Ponds. Due to her extensive external contacts with private purchase agents, we were able to get the house sold for a great price in record time with almost no work required from ourselves. I would absolutely highly recommend Rachael to any one looking to sell in and around this area.

Excellent communicator and very approachable.

Rachel Taylor from Hayeswinckle was fantastic to work with throughout the sale of our investment property in Mt Duneed. Her communication was excellent, she was always approachable and kept us well informed every step of the way. Despite the slowing market, Rachel achieved a great price for our property and made the whole process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Rachel has now successfully sold three properties for us, and we wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional and genuinely approachable real estate agent. Thanks again, Rachel!
