I met Phyllis at an open day and later at an auction of another townhouse in Wybalena Grove and found her advice very helpful. Thanks to her advice re auctions and private sales and her assistance in arranging presentation, painters and maintenance for a townhouse in an estate where there was much interest, the property sold at a very satisfactory price.

Peter Walker is an agent who truly works for you. His complete motivation is to get the best sale price for you but also ensuring the experience from beginning to end is an extremely easy one. I would highly recommend Peter Walker to anyone thinking about selling their home.

“My family and I have used Peter Walker’s services three (3) times over the past 20 years. Regretfully when our mum passed away and it was time to sell her Hawker townhouse, we made sure Peter provided a submission. Whilst we felt that an alternative agent spoken to would still do a good job, there was that successful previous connection with Peter and his obliging personality that was compelling. And we suspected too that Peter would actually achieve the higher sale price he had recommended, and that he already had a number of potential buyers in the bag. This proved to be the case, a good buyer was found prior to the agreed auction campaign and before marketing had commenced. Great job Peter, you have our recommendations once again!”

Peter helped me sell my home in Canberra for a price that I’m very happy with. I truly valued his expertise, experience and approachable demeanour. He provided useful insight and advice on pre-sale renovations and painting, as well as what potential buyers would be looking for and the best timing. This was my first time selling a property and he confidently and patiently guided me through the process. He made sure I felt comfortable with the process and decisions, knew what to expect and that I didn’t feel pressured or out of my depth. I am truly grateful to Peter and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Peter Walker was recommended to us when we decided to sell our house in Hawker, as an agent who specialised in the area and with a good reputation. We were very happy that we chose to go with him. We did not want an aggressive, pushy agent as we know that high pressure salesmanship puts off many people, including us. Instead, Peter dealt gently, positively and honestly with all those who expressed an interest in our property. From the first, it was apparent that Peter appreciated the things which made our property distinctive and which might add value to it. It soon became apparent that he was also an excellent communicator, listening to us, keeping us up to date with developments, emailing regularly and at the time of sale ringing us up to several times in a day. That was valuable, as we no longer live in Canberra. He was also able to recommend building inspectors and conveyancers who matched his own integrity. We had one issue which was a potential concern: an excellent long term tenant in the home we were selling who needed to be handled gently and tactfully. Peter proved outstanding in addressing her concerns and helping her, and when the property was shown she put in an exceptional effort to show it at its best. Given the COVID lockdown, he was proactive in suggesting we sell earlier than we’d originally planned, to take advantage of a shortage of comparable properties in our area. We have no doubt that Peter secured for us a sale price that reflected the true value of our home, given the neighbourhood and the current market. We would unhesitatingly recommend him.

Symon and his team were professional and reliable from the time we first engaged them to the settlement of the property. They would always keep us informed about any updates and would answer questions promptly. Thank you!

From our first meeting, Phyllis displayed her knowledge and professionalism, laying out a plan, including timeline, but being willing and capable to adapt it to our needs. Phyllis not only provided contacts for necessary work, but made introductions too. She kept in touch and kept us on track prior to market, and provided extra touches to make the place look its best for potential buyers and provided regular reports to us on interest at the Open House events. The professional support continued after the auction, getting all the paperwork sorted efficiently, as well as managing a positive and supporting environment for both sellers and buyers. Very positive experience.

From the moment we met Peter he clearly demonstrated his understanding of the market in our suburb and quickly identified the attributes of our property that made our property desirable. We enjoyed working with Peter on the sale process, he kept in regular contact and worked incredibly hard to help buyers determine that the property was right for them. We were very pleased with the result, a short marketing campaign, approximately 150 groups through, 14 registered bidders and an auction result that was beyond our expectations. We would definitely recommend Peter.

Having appointed Peter as our agent for the sale of our home we relied on him firstly to prepare a marketing campaign and secondly to find a ready willing and able buyer by either auction or private negotiation Peter explained the process and benefits of an auction emphasizing the importance of setting a reserve which would enable bidders to quickly become aware that they we’re bidding for the property rather than the right of first refusal. The marketing campaign identified clearly the features of our home and was long enough to identify potential buyers and give them sufficient time to be able to bid. Peter reported to us after each open day and private inspection. In doing so he demonstrated an understanding and appreciation of the views of interested parties and when possible maintained their interest in the property. As auctioneer Peter was outstanding. Everyone attending the auction had been forewarned that due to COVID the auction would be conducted outside in the rain. Despite the unfavourable conditions Peter quickly engaged the interested parties and conducted the auction efficiently, timely and Successfully. As our agent Peter was knowledgeable, honest, patient, diligent, polite and efficient and not surprisingly successful. We recommend him highly to anyone wishing to sell their home

From both a purchaser or seller perspective we have found Peter Walker from Ray White to be one of the most knowledgeable and experienced agents in Canberra. We first met Peter when we were looking to buy a property in Belconnen and found his style and judgement very balanced and reasonable. His market knowledge and experience in the area was very good and when it came time to sell, we knew he was the best agent for our house. He was very accommodating to meet with us and provide us with honest, well founded advice on the likely price, as well as how we might approach the sale. We could not have been happier with the outcome.

Buying with Phyllis was a pleasure. Her professionalism, service and communication are above industry standard and made the entire process transparent and easy to deal with. Phyllis rocks!

We were very impressed with Peter Walkers service. He worked hard and was constantly assessing buyer interest to ensure we had the right strategy throughout our auction campaign. He invested time with us to learn about our home and its features and worked hard to maximize perceptions of value amongst potential buyers. Peter is not pushy, but has a wealth of experience and techniques to influence buyer attitudes towards a home. Based on Peters’ advice we brought our auction date forward midway through the campaign due to levels of early interest in our home, which turned out to be the right decision as we sold comfortably at auction the next weekend with 7 registered bidders. We had utmost trust in Peters’ experience, professionalism and advice throughout our auction campaign and have no hesitation in recommending him to other sellers.
