Alex Rutherford

Alex and her team (in particular Joel) provided us with both professional and friendly service. They were always on the front foot with their communication and nothing we asked was ever a stupid question. They worked really hard to meet our needs and Alex's knowledge of the market is first rate. Given that as Sellers we are currently facing a challenging market, we were so very luck to have Alex in our corner and would recommend her and her team to anyone. This is the second time we have worked with Alex, she was the selling agent when we purchased our property and her professionalism then is the reason we asked her to be our selling agent this time.

Alex and her very professional team were lovely to work with. Communication was fantastic, I was always kept informed about open houses, buyers interest. Highly recommend.

We had an outstanding experience working with Alex and her team. From start to finish, their professionalism, communication, and attention to detail were exceptional. Alex's expertise went far beyond simply selling our property. Her advice on renovations and styling was invaluable, helping us present our home in the best possible light. Every recommendation was practical, well considered, and clearly backed by a deep understanding of what buyers are looking for. The entire team worked seamlessly to generate significant buyer interest, resulting in a large number of private inspections. Their strategic approach and strong network created genuine competition, and thanks to Alex's skilled negotiation, we achieved an excellent result without even needing to take the property to market. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend Alex and her team to anyone looking for knowledgeable, professional, and results-driven real estate agents.

We chose Place as they have a strong sales history in our unit block. We initiated the sale whilst overseas and Alex and her team were readily able to accommodate time differences. They have a good team structure which made communications really easy via a WhatsApp group. The use of Campaign Agent provided very detailed weekly reports of all enquiries and inspections, with more detailed communications of any strong interest via WhatsApp and phone calls. The team dealt directly with the rental agent and managed all communications and inspections with the tenant. Our goal was to sell by the end of the financial year and that was achieved whilst other units in the block remain unsold. The market has definitely dropped since the 2026 budget, but we were happy with the price and speed with which the unit was sold. All in all a very successful outcome and we would highly recommend Alex and her team.

It was a dream to work with Alex while I navigated difficult decisions. She explained the market conditions, gave me realistic advice, and was 100% accurate with what I could expect to experience both price wise and with potential buyers. Her communication was excellent with updates almost everyday. She negotiated a better price than I expected and made the whole selling experience seamless. Not only did Alex put my selling interest first, she took into account my personal circumstances with such empathy and determination to get me the best possible outcome. I’m delighted with the result and the whole experience was made so much easier dealing with members of her team too.

Alex communicated directly and was available any time I needed her. Her team exceeded my expectations, assisting me with things I wouldn't have thought were part of their role. Alex has a straightforward, no-nonsense approach, which served well during negotiations with prospective buyers. I would not hesitate to recommend Alex or to use her services again
