I have experienced the professional service and expertise that Simon offers as both a vendor and buyer. In both cases Simon provided excellent Information about the property and the market in general. He is friendly and courteous and displays all the qualities that one would expect of a reputable real estate agent. It is at the crucial point in the process where I believe Simon’s superpower is revealed. He is an outstanding negotiator. We would not have achieved the end result without this skill. I believe this is what sets him apart from other agents. I would not hesitate to recommend him and he will be the first person I call should I require an agent.

Selling first time once property is very hard and stressful but Trevor was excellent by not putting any undue pressure on us at any stage of the selling process. This is what a seller needs most. The whole process went well. We are very happy dealing with Trevor.

Trevor has an extraordinary knowledge of the North & West Melbourne community and property market. This was of great benefit when selling my property. Friends and neighbors delighted in meeting him when the property was open for inspection. He kept me informed of prospective buyers and their likelihood of bidding on the auction day. He very much understood that not all clients want to market their property in the same way. This allowed us to discuss how the sale and styling of the house might proceed with my involvement. For this I was extremely grateful, it made the difficulty of leaving a much-loved property much easier. Thank you to Trevor and others who worked with him.

From day 1 Simon worked extremely hard on our sale, always with a single objective in mind - to get the best possible deal for us. His advice was spot on and he delivered a brilliant result

During our property search we sometimes ran into Lee several times a day. He was always friendly and offered great value insights. He's clearly the Real Estate King of our postcode. We ultimately purchased through his equally noble colleague Angus, and both were wonderful companions on our journey.

Trevor supported and advised every step of the way; not just us as sellers, but also the buyers. I cannot speak highly enough of his service. I wish I could give 10 stars.

I found Trevor and Marcus to be exceptionally knowledgable and easy to deal with. They achieved a great result for us at a difficult time. I will certainly seek them out to handle future transactions.

We are very pleased with the performance of Trevor and his companion agent in handling this project. They manage to get a very close to our expected price in a downward market, after another agency failed to do so. Both have been very responsive, understanding our anxieties and dealing with it effectively. We recommend them with no reservations.

Trevor sold me a property in North Melbourne. He then sold it for me 13 years later! Trevor was a helpful and effective agent when I was buying, and he was just as effective as a vendor. Both the purchase and the sale were great results.

I was disappointed. We sold at a price that I believe was significantly lower than our original expected price. He was the lead agent for the sale and he was away for my first and last inspection, and he advised me of this the day before the inspections and not prior to signing the marketing schedule. I felt that it would of been good for him to be at what I consider the most important inspections. I was disappointed with his demeanor during the marketing process and wished I went with another agent. The marketing campaign didn’t go well and he’d often say it’s due to the location. I can’t change the location so it would of been good if he proposed more strategic solutions instead to help offset the issue. He did try to market the place to his other campaigns but I felt like we could of done more. After the second week of inspections, he told me that he and his colleague thought it’ll go for a price below the range. And it did, so I’m not sure why he didn’t recommend I lower the advertised price like other agents I noticed do as to potentially get more competition in the lower range. The property was passed in and we got an offer that day and I felt pressure to sell on the day for an offer I wasn’t happy with. I didn’t get any assurance about any post private sale campaigns so I sold. I worked out that there’s not much more commission relatively for some real estate agents to continue on with a private sale after auction if you sell it for a bit more. He did believe I made the right decision and maybe I did given the marketing campaign. But that’s not what I’m talking about. I get that the markets are uncertain, but I just thought he could of tried harder with offering other solutions we could try. If we sold at the same low price and I felt he tried his best and exhausted all marketing strategies then I wouldn’t be posting this. I left straight after the sale and he said he’ll call me and he didn’t call me for at least a couple weeks after the auction

It is a pleasure to write a review on Simon. I have no hesitation in rating him 5/5. I also rate his Jellis Craig office team as first class. I engaged Simon on the recommendation of my daughter, who had dealt with him over the last few years. From day one, I valued his sage advice - in particular using a recommended stylist, but also using the advertising budget wisely, fairly and in a cost effective way. The marketing was complicated by the COVID shutdown in Spring 2021. (Groan). Despite the multiple challenges of limiting viewing and restricting numbers, Simon's campaign and management was first rate. He managed a remote auction exceptionally well. The sale price exceeded my expectations. Since then my other daughter has sold with Jellis Craig at Fitzroy and has been delighted with the result. I can highly recommend Simon and his team, without reservation. I would not hesitate to use him again.
