Andrew made the selling of our Villa less stressful as he had such a wealth of local knowledge, was hard working to achieve the best sale price for us and he did all of this with an engaging personality, honesty and integrity.

Andrew was very helpful and very efficient in negotiating my purchase

During our real estate negotiations Andrew demonstrated courtesy and understanding which helped to allay anxiety. Using his considerable expertise Andrew followed up every issue large and small to my satisfaction.

I found Andrew the ever optimist. His enthusiasm was contagious and heart warming. He negotiated an expected sales price that we were happy with. Andrew was always on time and immaculately presented. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

I found Andrew to be extremely helpful and very easy to talk to. He made himself available during his day off to be of assistance.

Andrew and his team were very through and diligent in the sale of our property. He was helpful with great suggestions and ideas prior to sale and kept us well informed throughout. He struck me as a man of integrity and honesty, nice to be able to assign that tag in a somewhat "interesting" market sector. We would highly recommend Andrew and his team, perhaps not Professional by name but certainly by nature and action.

In August 2015 I commenced looking in Ballina for a unit to purchase and re-locate from SE Queensland. Several visits were made to the area and on one of these visits I made contact with Elders Real Estate who subsequently informed of available properties within my requirements. Details of suitable properties were provided and as a result, negotiations commenced on a specific property. As I was not a 'local' , Elders (Andrew Nieuwenhof) was very helpful in providing information regarding various aspects of living in the area and of options as to providers of the services required to pursue the proposed purchase. The co-operation in arranging access to the property for personal inspectIons and for the building and pest inspections was exemplary and any queries were attended to promptly. In my experience purchasing a property can be very stressful, however on this occasion the process was seamless and I appreciated the role Andrew played in assisting me achieve this outcome.

Andrew Nieuwenhof was both the buying and selling agent for my unit in Ballina. At all stages of the process I was confident with the level of communication and attention to detail. I would recommend Andrew and the team at Elders to look after your Real Estate sales and rental business needs.

This review has been a while coming, but I have no hesitation in recommending Andrew. I am doing this review on behalf of my elderly mother who decided to move from Ballina to Canberra to be closer to family, and myself as helping her with the sale. Her house was in a retirement village so it was a more difficult property to sell as it had to be a buyer who wanted this arrangement. Andrew was very honest and frank about our expectations of price, the market for retirement villages at the time, and advice about any extras which we may purchase to help sell the property, for example, advertising in a property magazine with photos. Negotiations took place between myself, my mother and Andrew which was made a bit more complicated because I was travelling overseas at the time of the marketing but he kept me fully informed of everything by email. Andrew's advice on price negotiation was appreciated and we had a successful sale. Andrew is very knowledgeable and genuine. He is a pleasure to deal with and we have no hesitation in recommending him. Betty Sayers and Sue Wright

Andrew was such a friendly, helpful and lovely person. From the first time he showed us the house which we eventually bought to the follow up after we moved in he was always available to answer any questions, and went out of his way to be of assistance. We were dealing with Andrew from Sydney and always felt that he was acting in our best interest even though we were far away. We cannot praise him highly enough, and his knowledge of the area helped us choose our home in Ballina.

We found Andrew and all the Elders staff polite, efficient and very helpful. They were professional in their approach to the sale of our property and kept us informed on the progress of the sale at all times resulting in a quick sale at an acceptable price.

Andrew has excellent communication skills and knowledge of the market. I found him easy to deal with and was happy putting the sale in his hands
