5 Star Agent who is a true professional 🙏

Aks is an honest, genuine agent and an absolute pleasure to deal with. He sold our house for a fantastic, realistic price in a very, very tough market. He was honest, reliable and knew the market like the back of his hand, including staying right on top of competing listings. He went above and beyond, holding around five open homes every week and working tirelessly to get the best result. His pricing advice was spot-on, and we always felt we were in good hands. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their property 👌

Resilient, hardworking agent who follows the perfect process to achieve you a record breaking sale

I was introduced to Aks through a friend who had achieved a record-breaking sale of his own property through Aks Makkar. During our initial meeting, Aks presented the outstanding results he had achieved for comparable properties—sale prices that were difficult to match against those of other agents. Based on this proven track record, our decision to appoint him was an easy one. From the outset, we were impressed not only by his professionalism and the structured process he implemented to market and sell our home, but also by his exceptional work ethic. His commitment was evident in the open homes he conducted each week and the consistent effort he invested throughout the campaign. Aks demonstrated remarkable tenacity and resilience, and his dedication ultimately delivered a record-breaking result for our property in Box Hill. By achieving such an outstanding sale price for our five-year-old home, he has set a new benchmark for real estate sales in the area. In fact, several of our neighbours have commented that Aks’ achievement has elevated the value perception of our entire street. We feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with an agent of his calibre and would not hesitate to recommend him.

I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a results-driven real estate professional. He is one of agent who makes sure both buyer and seller would be happy.
