Alex Rutherford of Place, New Farm recently sold me a house in Ashgrove. First and foremost I can say that I already knew of Alex as she had been recommended to me by a work colleague. I subsequently met Alex at an Open House in the city. The nature of the sale at Ashgrove was that the owner was seeking a very quick sale and settlement with minimal intrusion on her privacy. Alex understood this completely. Alex was able to diplomatically negotiate an end result that was suitable for both the seller and the purchaser. I cannot speak highly enough of Alex Rutherford and her team there at Place. I was a first time buyer and they assisted me every step of the way. I would be very happy to recommend Alex' team to others.

The marketing campaign had begun, the styling was in place and I had 6 weeks to sell. Residing overseas meant I was relying on my agent Alex Rutherford of Place Estate Agents to ensure all was in readiness and to deliver a sale in the short period. A good start attracted much interest but offers fell short of the mark. Inspection numbers dwindled and with week 5 closing there was still no acceptable offer. I was facing a protracted sale period or even withdrawing my apartment from sale when through her exceptional negotiation skills Alex was able to convince one of the potential buyers at the time to find that bit extra to achieve my accepted price. For many years Alex took the time once a year to provide me with valuable advice on the unit market in Brisbane City. I strongly recommend Alex Rutherford and her professional and helpful staff at Place Estate Agents, New Farm to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in Brisbane. Francesco Italy

I chose Alex because she was recommended to me by two friends for whom she had sold houses. As it is many years since I last bought a house, I needed someone to guide me through the process and to make selling as easy and as straight forward as possible. I found Alex to be knowledgeable, helpful and efficient. Her marketing strategy resulted in a good price and a quick sale which was exactly what I asked of her.


Alex is very knowledgeable about inner city real estate, in particular the Roma Street Parklands precinct. She is an expert in negotiation and works tirelessly to achieve optimal outcomes within the shortest time frame. I highly recommend Alex. She keeps in constant communication and gives her honest and expert opinion based on many years of experience In the industry. I am extremely happy with Alex's work for me and am now the very happy owner of a beautiful Parklands Apartment.

Alex is a very professional and dependable agent. She kept us informed at all stages, was very nice to deal with and gave us realistic information. The whole process was relatively quick and painless, and she kept us feeling positive. I would definitely recommend her if you want to sell as she is very tenacious.

I purchased an apartment through Alex. She negotiated hard and honestly for her client, the seller, and was co-operative and helpful also to me. I would say her standard of ethics isvery high.

Right from the start of our campaign, Alex and her very capable support staff were on the job. They made sure we had a clear view of the market and what we could possibly expect in terms of price and time frame. Alex achieved a sale that maximised the property's potential. A very cooperative and team!


We were very happy with our unit sale managed by Alex. She is at all times very professional, a prompt and courteous communicator with excellent knowledge of the market, and realistic in her expectations.

Alex was always approachable. Alex and her team kept me up to date on what was happening with my sale.
