Mick and his team were great throughout the buying process. Very helpful and nice and didn't mess us around at all. It was refreshing after experiences we had with others!

Jan is enthusiastic, motivated, highly skilled, reassuring and with a background in interior design she guided us through styling our home. She negotiated on our behalf and the house was sold for the price we were surprised and very happy to get. James and Petros were so professional. Jan consulted us all the way through and was genuinely excited about selling our property. We are very impressed, thank you so much Jan and team.

Grant has been an excellent advocate for our home and provided a realistic assessment of the selling price in the current market. He was readily available with any queries and attended to any matters in a timely and efficient manner. His knowledge of the Dandenong Ranges is excellent, as he has lived in this area for a long time and been known to me since his family were associated with Upwey Primary School. I would highly recommend Grant should you be deciding to sell your home as it has been an extremely positive experience.

As a first home buyer working with Jan was so great, she helped manage the negotiations and contracts in an extremely personable, genuine and trusting way. She always was there to answer questions, big or small, and was a pleasure to chat with. In the process of purchasing a house I have spoken to many estate agents, some can be quite unpleasant to deal with sadly, my experience with Jan was the complete opposite and I couldn't recommend her more. Thank you Jan and the wider team :)

Mick, Emily and the whole team were absolutely marvellous and even though it took time to sell, it was never put on the back burner and was always at the forefront of their minds in getting people to look at it. Wasn't a pretty house from the road but it was private and impeccable inside. They kept us informed thoughout the sale and had our best interests at heart even though I'm sure we tried their patience on occassion asking why it wasn't selling and they assured us the right person will come along, just have to wait. The right person did and we sold. Would highly recommend them and already have to people who have also utilised their services and sold quick so I know they do care and take pride as if it was their own home. Thank you!

Jan immediately came across as very knowledgeable of the local market and very interested in our views and expectations of a possible sale of our home. After two consultations we had agreed on a price range and marketing strategy and although we only managed to get one open house event organised due to COVID lockdowns Jan had some possible buyers and and after following up with them for 2-3 weeks of lockdown managed to secure a price for our property that we were happy to accept. We can not speak highly enough of Jan’s knowledge, professionalism and constant follow ups and updates. This is not the first time we have dealt with Jan and we now consider her both as a business associate and a friend.

Was introduced to Mick Dolphin and his team, along with another agent, through a friend previously in Real Estate. Mick presented as a quiet, studious and intentive person who listened to our wishes and needs. From he outset he utilised his staff to plan an appropriate presentation and arrange photos and videos as well as advising contacts to undergo repairs and adjustments which highlighted farm life. They were always readily contactable and friendly whilst Mick attentively concentrated on suitable purchasers. Contact was prompt and informative. They were excellent in their presentation especially considering the Covid shutdowns and the belief that the property would suit certain a cientelle. IWe would highly recommend this unit.

Exceptional service that produced an exceptional result.

Throughout the transaction Mick was always helpful, available for an questions I had, and seemingly has an inexhaustible knowledge of the marketplace, and the myriad of factors that affect a sale. He always gave good sound advice, coupled with a lot of common sense.

Mick Dolphin

Mick has a lot of knowledge and experience in the local market. His approach was friendly and he gave an honest and accurate assessment of the value of my property to ensure it achieved the best possible result. This was made a little more challenging as I am overseas and the entire programme was handled by phone. I am pleased I chose Mick to handle the sale of my property and I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Grants put in a great effort, his communication was terrific. His knowledge of the industry and the area is excellent.

We were so pleased with our Selling experience with first National both mick & Emily Were fantastic with the communication With both the buyers and ourselves. We achieved a fantastic result for our suburb and we credit this to a fabulous agent Who believed in our fabulous property and it’s worth. Not once did Mick give us the impression that he was not confident to sell our property for our asking price and this made him the agent for us.
