Review for Mike Lao from the Stansbie family

We selected Mike as our preferred selling agent, ironically because he was also a fantastic purchasing agent 3 years ago when we bought this property. Mike is extremely dedicated and professional with industry knowledge which was far superior to any other agent we spoke with. When we asked him to appraise our property, Mike came to our house and went through his proven techniques with us and explained absolutely everything in detail. He was able to answer every question we had and my husband and I both felt completely confident that the sale our home was in the hands of a true professional. As Mike is the owner of the Ray White Salisbury franchise, his attention to detail is impeccable. Throughout our advertising campaign, Mike kept us informed every step of the way with weekly e-mails on how our property was performing against averages, as well as individual comments from visitors to our open houses. He also followed up with us very closely once the offers started coming in. All in all, our first selling experience was as hassle free as possible. We had a fairly tight timeframe, which Mike acknowledged and took seriously without using that as a tool to take less than our asking price. Our final offer, which we accepted, was well within our asking range and the quick settlement worked in perfectly with our interstate move. Having had the experience of both purchasing and selling through Mike, we can highly recommend him for both sides! We'll be looking to buy again in our new location and can only hope we can find an agent who makes us feel as confident as Mike did. Finally, we are leaving our 18 year old daughter here in Adelaide to attend uni and have purchased an investment property for her to live in... which we have also put in the capable hands of Mike's team as property managers. Thank you Mike and very best wishes for the future. PS: Your kids and dogs will love him too as he has an endless supply of chuppa-chups and schmackos!!

Highly Recommended!

Mike did a great job selling our property. The marketing was perfect for this type of house. Mike regularly gave detailed up to date progress reports. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The sale price was much higher than expected. Highly recommend if you are selling a property around Salisbury area.

a great experience

We elected to sell our home after deciding to build a new one. Mike was recommended to us by a family member and also a work colleague who had both sold properties with him. We contacted other local agents, but felt as though our home was being consistently under valued, simply to get a sale. After speaking with Mike, we felt that he was right on the mark, he clearly had a very good knowledge of the area, setting our expectations at an achievable figure we could expect to receive. We were very happy with the way our property was marketed - the dusk photos and text really set our home aside from others in the area. The sale process was hassle-free and quick - online marketing went live on Tuesday, our first open was on the Saturday, and we were pleased to accept one of several offers the following day. The process from our first meeting with Mike to settlement was far easier than we ever anticipated, especially given that Mike kept us up to date throughout the entire, albeit short, duration. Ultimately, Mike ticked all the required boxes for us, achieving a quick sale at a figure which exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend him to family and friends.

Availability to the sellers

We were moving house and into the next phase of our lives. Time to downsize! After living and raising our children in the family home of nearly 40 years, it was a daunting experience. We needed guidance and someone we felt we could trust. Mike and his team were always on hand to help and guide, reassure us and importantly, keep us up to date with the state of play. We could call and be sure of a return call in a very short time. They were always there when we needed answers and help. They handled the open inspections beautifully, treating our home and us with respect. We were always totally at ease handing over the house to them. Cheerful and considerate, never minding when we needed information or clarification on any point. must have seemed simple questions. The house sold quite quickly, a couple of hiccups along the way, totally not their fault though! We always felt they were 'on our side'. The support and communication we got was so important and a vital point for us. Thanks Guys.

Outstanding agent. Lost for words!

From the start of our sales campaign right through to the end, Mike was absolutely AMAZING to deal with. This was our first time selling and we were blown away with Mikes professionalism, patience, honesty and integrity. His wealth of knowledge on the local market, and his willingness to appeal to, and connect with a diverse range of people in the community meant that we got well above the price we were expecting! Overall, Mike and his team went above and beyond with their time in preparing our house for sale. The level of marketing on the property was phenomenal, the brochure looked fantastic! The team explained every part of the process clearly and made us feel comfortable and supported. I would, without a doubt, recommend Mike as an agent!

Agent Review

I was happy buying a property from Mike Lao at Ray White Salisbury. He has good knowledge on the properties in the Salisbury area. He was helpful and made the buying process fairly easy. I would not hesitate in using him if I had a property to sell in the northern suburbs.

This is the 'A' Team - as good as it gets.

We chose Mike Lao and his team from Ray White because, unlike other agents, Mike's enthusiasm for our property convinced us that he could achieve a rapid sale at a good price....and he did ! We were very happy with the outcome and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mike. Everything about the process exuded professionalism and confidence. You don't just get Mike, you get his team as well :- A photographer who excels at his craft made our house look stunning. A stylist who knew how to make our house shine. Wei wrote a property description for the web advert that could only be described as a masterclass demonstration (seriously - I've read hundreds recently, and this was by far the best!), carefully outlining all the unique elements within the property which undoubtedly led to the significant interest - so much so that it took 3 of them to accommodate all the interest at the open inspection. Proper high quality brochures and materials - not laser-printed A4 sheets. Communication was continuous throughout the process, always polite and efficient, and at no point did we ever feel like we didn't know what was happening next. There were only 2 aspects of this sale that were important to us - time and price. Our expectations were exceeded on both counts. My sincere thanks to Mike Lao & his team for providing us with top class service.

Property Sale

My wife and I wanted a sea change for retirement so selling our house and moving was an option we had to make. We opted for three real estate agents to see the best possibility of selling, Mike Lao was better by far than the other two agents in knowing what we wanted and how to go about selling for us.The advertising he suggested with Photos, videos and brochure, were fabulous, he new how to market the property proffesionally and kept us informed on negotiations with the buyer. The property sold quickly and beyond our expectations concerning price, well above reserve. I would reccommend Mike Lao to anybody in the market who is thinking about selling their home, we will never forget the kindness and goodness he portrayed.

Salisbury agents

Mike Lao is an excellent Real Estate agent. He kept us informed along the way and we didn't have to do anything. We were in good hands with him as our agent. He knew what had to be done to get us the best price for our property

Mike and Wai did a fantastic job in selling our house. We were provided with a lot of support and frequent communication - before and after each open and the results from each open. Our house sold in less than three weeks with the fabulous photos and write up in the brochure and on realestate.com. We could not recommend Mike and Wai more, the little touches helped us make the decision to sell our house through Ray White Salisbury and then they exceeded these expectations. Mike had a good knowledge of the area and priced our house accordingly. I would reccomend Mike to anyone who asked without a doubt. Thankyou Mike and Wai!!!
