Marco was at all times professional in his approach; has a friendly engaging manner and a very good listener. He worked tirelessly arranging private inspections and clearly had a broad reach of prospective buyers. Always helpful during the process, he kept us well informed with updates and reports and achieved a good sale result. It is without hesitation that I highly recommend Marco Santos.

A true partnership
over 1 year ago
A true partnership

Rob and Danielle recently assisted us in the sale of an unique property under challenging circumstances. They were true partners in working with us to curate a group of qualified purchasers to attend a discreet auction environment achieving an outcome that satisfied all stakeholders. Danielle was so committed to supporting us that she waited at the property for over 8 hours on the proposed settlement day, ensuring matters were handle with the required diplomacy and professionalism we had come to expect from the Sotheby's team. We would not hesitate in engaging Rob and Danielle again in the future and have recommended them to other associates who are seeking a well connected, professional and hard working real estate partner to deliver positive campaign results on their properties. Well done Rob and Danielle.

Amazing Agent!
about 2 years ago
Amazing Agent!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Danielle for marketing our property. We purchased our home from her 8 years ago, at that time we were already impressed with her friendly personality and professionalism. Therefore 8 years later we gave her the authority to sell our property, then we found out she’s the best. From very beginning she gave us the thorough suggestions how to improve the house on interiors , facade , garden ,etc. when we had the property listed in market , we really thought our home was at its best for the past 8 years we owned it, so stunning. During the marketing campaign, she reported to us in a timely way and help us to understand the subtle change of the market, the most impressive part of her way dealing with vendor was that she never pushed or rushed us to make the decision for selling, she just honestly opened up with us for the situation fully respecting our own direction to make. From the purchasers point of view, we found she was also very responsible, her suggestions about servicing the water tank, pump and other appliances helped the settlement happen in a smooth way, her work is much more than just making a deal done, she has the ability to create a peaceful , friendly bridge between the purchaser and vendor which is unique . I would highly recommend house owners to engage her as your marketing agent , she’s absolutely the very best. 👍👍👍

Rob and his team did a fantastic job selling our house in Red Hill. They were very clear in their communications, very consistent with their messaging and have an unparalleled network of buyers in the area. I would highly recommend Sotheby’s to prospective sellers.
