Shane Killalea, selling agent, Hughes

Shane has a great style and his experience is evident. He does not oversell, but is canny in his advice and observations to prospective buyers (like me). I found interactions with him to be forthright and honest, at the same time keeping the vendor's requirements at the forefront. We have been so busy moving in to our new home, we've even left the sign with his photo on the front lawn this past month! Safe hands for selling your property.

Selling our parents' house

Selling our parents' house

My five brothers and I are immensely grateful to Brett, first for helping us with our decision to sell, and secondly, for making the sales process almost stress-less. The context was that our mother had just moved into a nursing home, leaving us to decide what to do about her home in Curtin and all her possessions. It was an emotional and overwhelming time for us. We first spoke with Brett in the midst of the sorting out mess at Mum's house. He was unfazed, knowledgable and candid, and his input helped unfreeze us us to make our decision. After consulting one other agent - just to be sensible - and finding that experience so much less, we asked Brett to be our sales agent and are so glad we did. Brett was just as helpful through the sales process. He was very clear with us on the steps involved, understanding of our mother's position on price, and always did, on time, what he had promised to do. Both he and his office answered our requests promptly and he communicated regularly with what was happening in the lead up to the auction. Even the auction was relatively stressless - there was nothing we had not been prepared for, and we were happy with the outcome, which was a sale at auction at a price we were happy with. As would be apparent from our remarks, my whole family found Brett a delight to deal with and we would all highly recommend him to others.

Excellent saleman and negotiator

Excellent saleman and negotiator

Shane was an awesome real estate agent. He quietly does everything you need of him. His communication was excellent and you know exactly what step you are up to, where the hold ups might be and is very patient when you ask silly questions. He makes you feel like you are his only client. He got a very good price for our house. His negotiation skills were superb. We thought the market was low and we would not achieve our desired sale price but Shane managed to get $30K more than the asking price. We would highly recommend Shane to any person wanting to sell their house. Wonderful salesman!

Purchase experience

Prompt communication, through sms's and (mostly) emails, which I prefer because of the convenience. There were a few phone calls too which were to the point - I appreciated these - especially when making offers and getting a response quickly. I was given the time I needed during pre-inspection and did not feel rushed - questions were answered on the spot. I gave a mid-rating for market knowledge only because it was not really applicable in my case for this purchase, although I did think the property was listed at a reasonable price.

This is the second time I have used Brett Hayman from Peter Blackshaw's in Woden to sell my house and the 4th time he has sold a home for a member of my family. I have also dealt with Brett with the purchase of our new property in Curtin. At all times I have found Brett to be professional and extremely knowledgeable in both his job, and in the Canberra market. I would not hesitate in recommending not only Brett but Peter Blackshaw realestate Woden to anybody either selling or buying a house. Regards Bruce McKenzie

sale of 1 Webster Street Hughes

sale of 1 Webster Street Hughes

Recently Brett sold our home with the assistance of his team. He managed the sale in a professional manner. During the sale campaign Brett remained positive, encouraging and demonstrated leadership in all aspects. Key competencies included presentation of our home and maintaining up-to-date open house comments within the team office environment. Brett reported to us following each open day inspection with both positive and negative comments from clients and or prospective buyers. There were occasions when my questions were out of Brett’s area of professional expertise. Here, Brett referred me to relevant professionals for advice. I strongly recommend Brett as a trustworthy Real Estate Agent who will go the extra mile when selling your home!

Martin worked very hard to sell my property and continued the open house exhibition every weeks for 7 months. He also reported all the exhibition report every weeks for 7 months.

An outstanding agent with an outstanding result

An outstanding agent with an outstanding result

Shane Killalea was the agent I dealt with when I bought my house in 1999. Following a good experience then I asked him to sell it for me in June 2016. I am so pleased that I did so. Shane provided me with information and advice from the very beginning of the process, including on the state of the market, the process itself, and how to present my house for sale. Consequently the sale moved very quickly and smoothly and within 5 days of the first exhibition of the house I accepted a sale price substantially above what I had hoped for. Shane continued to advise and guide me through the exchange of contracts right up to the settlement of the sale. He worked tirelessly to look after my interests. Shane was professional in all his dealings with prospective buyers and with me as vendor. At the same time he has a friendly and relaxed manner and I was very pleased that he kept me informed every step along the way. I rate his communication skills and ability to work with people very highly indeed. I have already recommended Shane's services to friends and will continue to do so - he is an outstanding agent.

Review of Brett

We found Brett friendly, open and available in his communication, and accommodating of our requests. Despite our bidding remotely (through a proxy) the auction process was smooth and ultimately successful for us. We would recommend Brett as an agent. Warren & Varunee
