We Couldn't have chosen a more dedicated and diligent agent First National Coastside Shellharbour

We commissioned First National Coastside real estate Shellharbour to sell our house. Matt Hutchinson explained the process involved in selling and answered all of our questions. He was very professional and courteous. Matt Hutchinson , Rachel Hutchinson and Brooke Gilbert were extremely proficient and we were able to communicate with them easily about any client's queries. They were punctual for every inspection, kept us informed at all times during the inspections through to the sale of our house. If you're searching for an Agent that is trustworthy, dedicated and works tediously to achieve your goals, I strongly recommend First National Coastside Real Estate Shellharbour Matt Hutchison & Rachel Hutchison.

Awesome real estate agent!

I and all three of my children have dealt with Matt over a number of years. We have all been pleased with his service and his knowledge of the real estate business. He is very pleasant to deal with and was reasonably priced. What more can I say?

This is the second property we’ve sold through Matt Hutchinson at First National Coastside Shellharbour and once again Matt was attentive, professional and incredibly easy to work with. His communication was always clear and timely, and his local knowledge and experience gave us complete confidence throughout the entire process.
