Dear Richard, Many thanks to you for handling the recent sale of our home in Inkerman Street. When we bought this home two years ago – with you acting for the previous vendor – we never imagined we’d be selling so soon. Due to relocating interstate, we sadly found ourselves selling our “forever” home, so we had no hesitation in asking you to represent us. We appreciated your professionalism, negotiation skills and experience. A special thank you to Mark Manners and your Simeon Manners team for all their assistance. We would have no hesitation in recommending Richard and his team.

Our property was not the easiest property to sell, the effort Richard put in to identify and work with each potential buyer’s individual needs over a number of weeks was incredible. From working with architects and builders through to ensuring the perfect photo, we were very lucky to have worked with Richard and his team and would highly recommend them. A special thanks to Marize who was the perfect partner with Richard; top agents who work extremely well together, they leave nothing to chance.

We would like to thank Richard and Chris for their considerable efforts in the sale of our house. During the recent changing market conditions they still managed to achieve the best result and did not give up or compromise for an easier situation. They provided us with constant market updates throughout the campaign. We also appreciate them for always making their advice based on the decisions benefiting us. This is a great team to work with and we recommend them highly to any potential seller.”

Richard, Marize and team far exceeded our expectations in terms of price, quality and after sales care with regard to the sale of our property in Countess St. Mosman. Sales strategy was well thought out and presented in a manner that accommodated our busy schedule and market estimate for the property ended up being spot on accurate. Having experienced other agent’s styles in the North Shore area previously, what sets Richard, Marize and their team apart was their attention to detail, their informed opinions on what the best selling points of the property were and their help in presenting the property in the best manner possible. Richard and Marize’s guidance during the sales process was always courteous and undertaken in a professional manner irrespective of the long hours of work they put into the sale on a daily basis. At the completion of the sale, the biggest selling point for Richard, Marize and their team, was that we felt as much time and effort was put into the marketing and securing a deal for our property as would have been for a property of considerable more value and have no hesitation in recommending them.

My wife and I have now both bought and sold property with Richard Simeon, firstly our purchase in March 2010 and the subsequent sale of the same property in September this year. With Richard, it really was our experience with our purchase that made him our go to man when it came time to sell. When we bought the property, we were extremely impressed with Richard's attitude, not only in selling to us but also, at the same time, obviously protecting the interests of the vendor. It's a fine balance to successfully deal with both parties and provide a successful outcome, and we really respected that attribute. When we decided to sell it was easy for us to decide that when it came to the pointy end of the deal, there was only one person who we wanted to handle our affairs . We knew Richard would get us the best result possible with the minimum of fuss. His ability to close a deal is extraordinary. Marize provided a great balance in the process and rounded things out in the most professional way. We couldn't be happier.

When we decided to put our property in Tivoli Street on the market, the choice of real estate agent was a no brainer. Richard Simeon sold properties for us in 2006 and 2010 and we were extremely happy with the process and the outcome on both occasions. Richard’s approach is ‘’hand me over your home, I’ll sell it for you and you will be delighted with the result’’. It’s that simple. From the vendor’s point of view, you could not ask for a smoother ride. Richard’s knowledge of the marketplace, his vast experience, his engaging personality and ability to deliver is second to none. He is a consummate professional, a remarkable communicator and his approach to the task at hand is masterly. Richard is a level above the best in his industry. He is a highly astute operator, instilling confidence in his vendors and unwaiveringly placing his vendors’ interests first and foremost. Richard has developed a great team around him in his company Simeon Manners. We appreciated the efforts of Sam and Sarah who were always a pleasure to deal with and who really understand the importance of being upbeat, positive and personable. We feel very fortunate to have Richard as our go-to-guy and will most certainly reach out to him again for any property sales in the future.

As you well know, selling a family home is incredibly stressful, both emotionally and financially, which is why choosing the right agent is such a critical decision. I have absolutely no doubt that I chose the right agents in you and your team. Your approach from day one was professional, adept, insightful and empathetic and I felt confident that I could entrust the sale of my home to you. Your knowledge of both the local market and prevailing market trends was both extensive and insightful but I never felt pressured to sell. You happily (and patiently) answered my questions and dealt with my indecisiveness thoroughly but empathetically. You provided a price guide to me based on evidentiary values and not once did I feel like you attempted to convince me to lower my price expectations. I felt like we were a team and on the same page from day one. Once on the market, I was impressed by your attention to detail and your systematic, organised and professional approach. The marketing campaign for my home was hugely successful and I was really pleased with the coverage and additional PR you were able to secure. Whilst I was not privy to it, I honestly believe that you managed the sales process and ensuing negotiations skilfully and professionally as was illustrated in the fantastic result we achieved, which was at the top end of your initial price guide. Every step of the way I felt like I was in good hands and every interaction with your team was efficient and pleasant. Special thanks to Marize and Chris for their expertise and support and to all of the Simeon Manners team. I am truly grateful for your diligence, professionalism, empathy and guidance and I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to prospective vendors.

"We could not be more pleased with our decision to appoint Richard, Marize and their team to manage the sale of our home. Being based overseas it was especially important to entrust this responsibility to a team of outstanding professionals who were able to manage all aspects of the process from coordinating improvements works, styling, marketing, presentation, buyer negotiations and of course the sales process itself. Nothing was too much trouble. At all stages we felt that the team at Simeon Manners were working their utmost to achieve the best outcome for all concerned. Their engagement with the property was evident from the outset and resulted in it being presented in an outstanding manner and their communicating to prospective buyers its most distinctive features. The team gave comfort that this was not just another sale, but instead recognised the importance of this process from the vendor's perspective. We were kept fully informed at all stages of the sales process. The professionalism, market knowledge, commitment, communication and responsiveness were exemplary. This was demonstrated not only by Richard and Marize, but throughout all levels of the agency. Simeon Manners did not waiver throughout in their assessment of the buyer interest and market value for our property. The ultimate result was very pleasing (a street record) and at all stages consistent with or exceeding the expectations they had set. We could not recommend Richard, Marize and their outstanding teams more highly.

We talked to a number of agents before choosing Simeon Manners. Many agents have similar ideas about sales campaigns, but there were some factors that made SM stand out from the other contenders (other than SM's impressive track record, particularly for Beauty Point sales). Firstly, SM understood and respected our position ie we were not forced sellers and never pressurised us to compromise on price. To us that showed great integrity. YSM were true to their mantra of not letting the market dictate the price. Over what was an extended campaign SM never lost their enthusiasm or belief that eventually they would find the buyer and you did. Finally, we were very confident that once that buyer had been identified SM would leave no stone unturned to close the deal. We would have no hesitation in recommending Simeon Manners to other vendors."

"Dear Mark & Richard, we wanted to express our sincere appreciation for all your efforts and guidance in achieving a successful sale of our harbourside property in Beauty Point. Mark and Richard were confident and unwavering in setting a price range and set about running a cost effective and targeted sales campaign which generated solid interest among a select number of qualified buyers. They then worked very closely and diligently with those interested parties, finally giving the successful purchaser the confidence and encouragement, through careful negotiation, that saw them meet our price expectations and conclude a sale. As anyone who has been through the process knows, selling one’s home can be very stressful. Both Mark and Richard were very calm, measured and professional giving sound advice throughout the campaign. In the final negotiations it helped knowing we were in the hands of two very experienced operators whose judgement we trusted. We would have no hesitation in recommending Simeon Manners to other Vendors."

I do not believe that any other real estate agent would have secured the deal on our property that Richard did. The combination of his vast market insight, his well honed and targeted marketing skills, knowledge and understanding of the prospective client base and, ultimately, his deep ambition to achieve the best possible deal for his vendor client differentiates Richard from his competitors. Finally, his negotiation skills are amazing and leave absolutely nothing to chance. I also want to thank Scott Thornton for his valued contribution and excellent team work with Richard. I have no hesitation in unreservedly recommending Richard Simeon as the agent of choice to any prospective vendor.”
