Ben was efficient and attentive to our needs and the promotion of the property was quite good. We were communicated with regularly and we got there in the end. We were left with a slight feeling that perhaps he could have pressed the eventual purchaser a little harder, but we will never know.
Ben and his team provided us with a service in excess of what we could have hoped for. With a volatile and changing market he achieved a result we were very happy with. Also as vendors with unique work hours Ben modified his communication to suit so we were in contact whenever needed. We would highly recommend Ben for anyone considering listing their property. His knowledge of the local market as well as his non-aggressive marketing style ensure a top result. Thanks again Ben and team.
Ben and his team including his assistant agent Ben were the perfect group of people you want to deal with when buying your first home. From the open home to the signing of the contract Ben and his team always gave straight and honest answers (a refreshing change to some previous agents) to any queries I had along with being quick and efficient in their responsive time keeping the stress at a minimum. It was majorly refreshing to deal with Ben and his team compared to others due to their easy going and stress free personalities whilst keeping their professionalism throughout. Definitely one of the those agents that looks after both Vendors and Buyers alike. Cheers to Ben & Ben on all their assistance throughout.
Ben was a exceptional agent, his knowledge of the area and what was currently on the market was second to none. He kept us up to date during every stage of the sale and his advice excellent which lead to a great result. Ben is definitely the go to agent for the inner west and I would have no issues recommending him. Ashley
We first met Ben Southwell during an open house within the area approximately a year before we listed. Ben’s professionalism, honesty, knowledge and rapport building is what impressed me immediately. Ben regularly checked in every few weeks following. I never once felt pressured or pursued. I wanted someone representing me that would go that extra mile, that would leave no stone unturned and that was 100% committed. Once we formally engaged with Ben after considering various options, we were on the market within 4 days. Ben helped with every aspect of the campaign including pre and post and guided us meticulously and honestly all the way. Ben insisted on high touch throughout the process and managed an outstanding marketing campaign including public relations. All with impressive numbers both online, print and open houses. The auction day was slick and professional as was the entire process. We were always going to get a good result with Ben and team but I didn’t expect all my expectations to be exceeded. From the minute we embarked on selling until the hammer went down we were engaged in a true partnership. Ben and Ben handled the selling of our property with distinction – I cannot recommend this personable hard-working team at C&H Annandale highly enough.
Ben and the team at C&H were nothing but professional and went over and above what was required. Very genuine and helpful to us as buyers while working for the vendors, which I have found quite rare in the market. Ben has continued to help us after the sale in anything we need throughout the settlement period. Would gladly recommend Ben to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.
I PURCHASED A HOUSE FROM BEN IN 2015, BEN WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND ARRANGED A PRIVATE VIEWING FOR ME A LATE NOTICE AFTER MY WIFE SAW THE PROPERTY 1 WEEK OUT FROM AUCTION, THIS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO BUY THE HOUSE. A STRONG NEGOTIATOR AND A GREAT COMMUNICATOR, I ENJOYED HIS PROFESSIONALISM, ALBEIT I WOULD HAVE LIKE D TO PAY LESS BUT BEN WAS ABLE TO BROKER THE DEAL, IF I WAS GOING TO SELL MY HOUSE I WOULD DEFIANTELY RECOMMEND BEN AS I THINK HE IS ONE OF THE MOST DELIGENT ESTATE AGENTS IVE MET AND I KNOW THAT HE WOULD GET A GREAT RESULT FOR THE VENDOR. 5 STAR RECOMMENDATION !!!!!!!
You might think that these qualities would be standard for a real estate agent. Unfortunately we all know that they are not. In fact it is rare to find any service provider these days that does what they say they will do every time. Ben does. He was a pleasure to deal with, nothing was too much trouble and he worked hard to get the best possible outcome. . For an event that most people find stressful, it was surprisingly unstressful! Thanks Ben (and Ben).
I would have no hesitation in recommending Ben Southwell and his team . Fantastic result was achieved
I have found Ben Southwell to be a personable young man who without a great deal of hyperbole has managed to help me purchase the property I so wanted without in any way compromising his first duty to his clients, the owners of the house I recently have purchased.Thank you Ben!
I was introduced to Ben via a personal reference and as the property I had for sale was an investment property I needed an Agent who would go that extra mile as I was not going to be on site. What I needed was someone I could trust to know what was happening In the local market managing the auction process and keeping me fully Informed. After each inspection. I received a phone call with feedback on outcome as well as a written report of the week's results. I also appreciated Ben advising me where we should be and how we were going to get there. I was delighted with both Ben and his Agency and feel you should at least talk to Ben when you are considering selling in Alexandria, you won't be sorry should you choose to have him represented you.
