I have been dealing with Barry Plant, Northcote for 11 yrs now and met Michael Divito at the beginning he was always friendly and professional so when a family property had to be sold I approached Michael. Right from the start his knowledge and expertise were right on the money and he treated my family and myself with utmost importance needless to say we recieved a very smooth and fantasic outcome. Michael Divito and ALL the team at Barry Plant, Northcote were brilliantly fantasic, I have and always will recommend the whole team , no matter if you want to sell, buy or rent they are the people you need....Thanks so much for a great experience.

When my husband and his brother needed to sell their family home after the death of their father we canvassed quite a few auctions in the process of researching the best agent to negotiate the sale. We finally decided on Barry Plant as their auctions seemed to be conducted the most professionally. Michael Divito was our primary point of contact and remained so during the course of the sale. He listened to our views and suggested realistic outcomes for the sale. He worked hard at getting the maximum exposure and kept us fully informed after each showing. He was impressive on the auction day, not only realising our expectations, but actually exceeding them. We have had prior dealings with other agents whilst selling both residential and commercial properties and this sale was the easiest and most stress free that we have encountered. Thank you Michael for all your efforts. We will certainly be using you again should the need arise, and will happily recommend you to our friends.

We really want to thank Gino and his team for their work on selling our house. We are very pleased with the result and ensuring that we sold on the day of the auction. We know that Gino and his team did everything possible to help with the sale. We really appreciate that he went that extra mile to put us in touch with tradespeople for some of the final jobs to make sure our house looked its best. He was always quick to return calls and kept us fully informed of all the feedback from the inspections as the campaign progressed. It was very re-assuring that Gino stayed consistent with his advice during the sales campaign too. The quality of the house photos and advertising copy was very good too. We would definitely recommend Gino De Iesi and Barry Plant Northcote to friends who were looking to sell or buy. Thanks very much.

A few years ago we started planning my partners retirement and with consideration to selling our house in Thornbury as the children were all ready to leave home for their own pursuits in life. We started to go to all the auctions in the area to get a feel for what our house is worth. Barry Plant had been very well represented in the area, and that's when we met Gino and Luke. We indicated our future intentions and Gino made sure he kept us up to date with the activity and results in the area. Obviously he also wanted to know when we planned on selling. His patience and respect over this period of time is representative of the the years he has spent providing service in the area. When we were ready to put the property on the market, it was patently obvious who we were going to choose. Gino was invited over to our home and we discussed a strategy to sell the house. We signed on with Barry Plant. That's when the we were pleasantly surprised with an " all in " action plan. Gino arranged for the full sales team briefing at the property and the 5 week action campaign started. We were kept up to date with everything that happened during the campaign and on auction day we knew that everything had been covered. Of course we obtained a good result. All parties satisfied. A stress free campaign Thanks Gino

Michael Divito is the best real estate professional that we have had dealings with. We have owned a number of both investment properties and private residences over the last 20 years and in that time we have not seen the sales skills, people orientation and ability to build relationships as Michael displays. Michael spent a lot of time with us ensuring that we were satisfied with price, market position, and the sales process from the outset of engagement. He regularly contacted us to update us with interested buyers and above all he was able to secure a very impressive price for our home. We cannot fault Michael on his performance and would recommend him to anyone that we know selling a home in the future.

After purchasing my home through Michael just over 3 years ago, I had no hesitation in once again making contact with Michael and entrusting him with the sale of my home. He knew the home, but came back and gave me a comprehensive appraisal and the Auction process began. Everything ran so smoothly and Auction Day came around quicker that I knew it. Michael opened my home to many people and on the Auction Day we had a fantastic turn out. I could never have guessed how fantastic the day went and am still in shock with the fantastic result I achieved. Well over my reserve that I set on the day. Thank you Michael for going above and beyond and never leaving a stone unturned through out my Auction Campaign. I look forward to following your success and will always recommend you to friends and family who may want to sell or buy in the area.

We found Michael was very responsive to all our queries and was always polite and friendly.

With Michael's help, we sold our first home effortlessly. We had other agents come through to assess the sale, but only Michael came across as genuine and realistic in his approach. Expectations were set accordingly, and Michael was active in approaching potential buyers. He also helped us prepare and style the home for sale. On the auction day, we had enough bidders to make our sale target a reality. I hope to use Michael's services in the future and wholeheartedly recommend him to any prospective seller. Thanks.
