Above and beyond

We had an amazing experience working with Darren when purchasing an investment property in Varsity Lakes. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth and stress-free. Darren arranged a private inspection for us, we put in an offer at the inspection and he spoke to the seller right away on our behalf. He then called us within the hour to let us know our offer was accepted. His communication was outstanding. Darren was always quick to respond, honest, and incredibly knowledgeable about the local market. What really stood out was how genuine and down-to-earth Darren is. We never felt pressured or rushed, and he always took the time to explain everything clearly and make sure we felt confident with every step. Thanks to his professionalism and dedication, we found the perfect property. We were so impressed that we’ve now chosen Darren to manage our property as well. We honestly couldn’t recommend Darren more highly. He is an absolute pleasure to work with and someone you can truly trust with your property journey.

The agent you want on your side

I am beyond thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Darren Mackay from Santa Cruz Realty in the sale of my property at 14/130 Plateau Cr, Carrara. This is the second time I’ve worked with Darren to sell one of my properties, and once again, he has exceeded my expectations. From the very beginning, Darren demonstrated his deep knowledge of the market, as well as his commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for me. His professionalism and attention to detail were unmatched, and it was clear that he truly cared about getting the best result. Thanks to Darren’s expertise, we received multiple offers, and ultimately sold the property at a record price for the complex – something I never imagined possible! His proactive communication, negotiation skills, and strategic approach made all the difference. I felt supported and confident throughout the entire process. I couldn’t be happier with the result and would highly recommend Darren Mackay to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. This is the second time Darren has helped me achieve a fantastic outcome, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again in the future. His dedication and results speak for themselves, and I’m incredibly grateful for his hard work and guidance. Thank you, Darren!

Street record once again

My experience with Darren Mackay yet again was exceptional. This is the 2nd time we have used him as our agent & once again he achieved the street record for us.

Darren Exceeded our Expectations- Highly Recommend

As first-time sellers, Darren was fantastic in guiding us to achieve a street record for our property with just one open home! The whole process was seamless. Darren worked really hard, even pulling a few late nights negotiating to get us our record price, and it didn’t end there. We were kept in the loop, and under Darren’s guidance right through to settlement. We can’t recommend Darren highly enough, his professionalism is second to none!

His communication skills are excellent, we received a detailed report after each open home or inspection. We thoroughly recommend Darren if you are looking for a professional agent who genuinely cares about both the vendors and the buyers.

Would not hesitate to recommend - for selling and/or property management

Darren managed my investment property and sold my house for me. Darren was professional, clear in his communication and consistently available to answer all of my questions throughout both the sale of the house and property management of my other property. Darren is very personable, listened to our every request and facilitated maintenance for a price much lower than anything I'd been quoted. Well connected and an absolute professional, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Darren if you want a smooth transaction with a reliable agent.

Fantastic Service

We had an extremely difficult property to sell which we had tried to sell previously without success. A recent sale by Darren had him on the phone asking did we still want to sell and it was sold in a couple days. Darren's professionalism, communication and knowledge of our property was first class, we would recommend him to anybody.
