As a property professional and valuer in the corporate sector for over 30 years, I was very particular with the choice of agent to sell my home. I had put many years of love and hard work into restoring my old world home, and knew that I had to have a highly reputable and respected agent to represent me. Alexandra Stamatiou-Buda from McGrath had an excellent profile in the Inner West and I found in appointing her, she was even better than I expected. Her knowledge of the market is second to none and her professional and ethical approach really stood out to me. She was sensitive to individual circumstances and I knew through other dealings, that she gained the respect of purchasers very quickly. Having dealt with many property agents over my career, I am always wary of agents that do not follow through with their initial enthusiasm after having gained the listing. Some believe their role is to simply facilitate a sale, rather than truly act in the vendor’s best interest to maximise price. Alexandra was the opposite, always delivering on her marketing commitments and providing excellent communication through the sales process - and at a certain critical juncture in sale negotiations, Alexandra developed an ethically responsible strategy to maximise my selling price, and was able to exceed my expectations by a long way. If I was selling or buying another property in the Inner West, I would not hesitate to use Alexandra Stamatiou-Buda at McGrath, and would most certainly recommend her to any potential vendors. Yours sincerely, Colin West CPV, FAPI, MCR, JP.
