Incredibly professional, knowledgeable and efficient.

Nick was excellent throughout the whole process, he was very professional and knowledgeable. Nick took the time to answer any and all questions that my wife and I had whilst guiding us through the sale process seamlessly. Nick obtained a great result for us and managed to sell our property off market which greatly reduced any sale anxiety we had. Would highly recommend Nick and the team at Independent South.

Exceptional service

I primarily worked with Robert Burns to buy my property, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They were patient, honest, and always available to answer my questions Thanks to their support, I was able to secure the property. I highly recommend Robert Burns to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated real estate agent.

Exceptional Service From Start to Finish

We had an exceptional experience working with Jonathan,from start to finish. His professionalism, communication, market knowledge and attention to detail made the entire process seamless and stress-free. He was always available to answer questions, keeping us informed every step of the way, and genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for us. One of the standout parts of the experience was Jonathon’s ability to fully coordinate and project manage all the work needed to prepare the property for sale. From organising trades and styling to overseeing improvements and timelines, everything was handled efficiently and professionally, removing the usual stress and overwhelm that often comes with preparing a home for market. It made a huge difference knowing every detail was taken care of so smoothly. Jonathon’s advice and strategy were spot on, resulting in a fantastic outcome beyond our expectations. What truly stood out was his honesty, dedication and commitment — nothing ever felt too much trouble. We felt completely supported throughout the entire journey and couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone looking to buy or sell property. An absolute standout professional and a pleasure to work with.”

Jonathan’s dedication to providing an excellent experience for both buyer and vendor was clearly demonstrated during our recent purchase. His first rate market knowledge of both real estate and the building industry assisted us greatly in our decision to choose our beautiful new home. Jonathan has a wonderful combination of professionalism, genuine friendliness and outstanding communication skills and we highly recommend him for all your real estate needs.

Loved working with Jonathan

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Jonathan and the team. They kept us informed every step of the way, provided reassurance when we needed it, and when auction day came… they smashed it out of the park.

Great communicator

His communication was quite clear, he always kept me in the loop of what was going on with the property. He went above and beyond, even adding door stops and etc when typically it is contracted out. I'm very happy with the result.
