Matt was excellent at doing as much as he possibly could for us as the buyer, while working for the vendor. He was very transparent and we always knew what was going on throughout the exchange process and going into settlement.

Matt was a great agent to work with. Easy to talk to too, easy to contact, quick replies and just an all round friendly yet professional guy. For a process that has the potential to be incredibly overwhelming and stressful, Matt ensured that we were always kept in the loop with honest and genuine feedback/information. You could tell that he clearly had a great rapport with the previous owners of the house we purchased as well which certainly made the whole process flow smoothly and hassle free. Thanks again Matt!!

Professional, knowledgeable and ethical! These are just a few of the words that we would use to describe Matt. Selling our home of 40+ years and then buying our new home was a very positive experience with Matt at the helm. We would highly recommend Matt if you a looking for an agent!

Matt demonstrated excellent knowledge of the particular market that we were in, we were extremely impressed with not only his knowledge but his ability to sell property based on the buyers needs. Matt is a genuine block, doesn’t talk b@@@, gives us honest answers and works extremely hard. With Matt you always feel comfortable picking up the phone or sending him a message. I have recommended Matt to family and friends.

Bree was very good to work with, and made it a pleasant buying experience.

Bree got our sale successfully across the line. It was her confidence, patience, kindness and excellent sales strategy that made it happen. I‘m so grateful for Bree and her hard work!

Bree made selling our home for the first time a breeze and we couldn't recommend her more! Even though my wife and I were interstate and there were tenants moving out of the home at the same time as the Covid-19 lockdowns, she arranged for our house to be fixed up, staged and marketed quickly and beautifully (she even did some of the cleaning herself!!!). The entire process was so easy and stress free with daily updates throughout the campaign not to mention that we got a great price and settlement terms in the end despite the challenging landscape! Would give 6 stars if I could

Bree made my first experience of selling a house easy and painless. She kept me up to date throughout the process and managed to secure a sale within 6 days of advertising my property. Her knowledge of the market and professionalism kept me confident through the process and helped me achieve the desired outcome. I would 100% recommend Bree to anyone who is looking to list their property.

From the moment we met Matt at our very first open home, he was nothing but professional and friendly. He took the time to understand our needs and what we were looking for in the perfect home. He is a genuine person that has been approachable at all time and always maintained contact with us over the last four months with our hunt for a property. We are proud to have bought a home off Matt and will gladly refer friends and family to either sell or buy a house through Matt and HIVE Property. Thank you again Matt for your assistance with our quest for a house! See you around the Valley area!

Josh and his team made the purchase of our amazing home possible. Josh has big firm experience but an entrepreneurial spirit. It was this combination of skills and a business owner energy that meant Josh and his team were able to path-find for both Seller and Buyer, enabling us to secure our dream home. His knowledge of the products, integrity in their representation and clarity on process and expectations were second to none. We were so impressed with Josh that during the process of purchase, when we needed a Property Manager, we only wanted HIVE to look after our rental property. HIVE is just what the market needs and when we buy or sell again, they are the only firm I would engage. A disruptive force that is going to have an ever-growing impact in Canberra. Thanks again Josh, Sam and Tom, you are all superstars!

We were hesitant to continue with putting the house on the market given the Covid-19 restrictions however Matt was so supportive and took all our concerns onboard. The process went so quickly and sold soon after the first few scheduled appointments which was an exceptional result given the real estate restrictions. We are grateful to Matt and appreciate all his time, hard work, honesty and enthusiasm he put into selling our home especially under difficult circumstances. Matt is knowledgeable, honest, reliable, polite and down to earth. An agent we can highly recommend and we will definitely be using in the future. Thank you Matt!
