My fiance and I have been looking for a property for around a year. In that time, we have met countless agents at open houses and Real Estate Offices. Unfortunately I can not say there were very many that made us feel comfortable and gave the impression of being honest and upfront during the purchasing process. Many were still working under the 1980's style of "Smokes and Mirrors" selling which left us simply walking away from properties that could otherwise have been suitable. Blake immediately gave a very different impression. After meeting Blake at an open home for a property that was unfortunately too small for our needs, Blake took the time to ask questions and listen to what we were looking for. He suggested a property on his books that certainly met our needs on paper and organised a time for us to take a look. We ultimately ended up purchasing this property for two reasons. Firstly, it obviously met our needs. Secondly, during the entire negotiation process, Blake was always available to answer questions and was upfront and honest. What impressed me most was if he was unaware of an answer, he simply let us know and then found out the answer for us. We always new he was ultimately working on behalf of the vendor, but the fact that he treated us with respect the whole time made the process easy to complete. Thank you Blake for your professionalism.

found Blake to be very thorough and 100% helpful in the sale of our property. Because we lived interstate he went above my expectations in his prompt service that he provided to us whenever I had questions or needed assistance. Always found him easy to approach and talk to. Would Highly recommend

Blake’s professionalism & service impressed us. He advised us to invest in extra maintenance, quality styling and photography, to optimise the sale price. He’s a pleasure to work with; friendly, likeable and an excellent communicator & negotiator. He kept us up-to-date during the whole process, answered all our questions patiently. When required, he made tough calls to ensure our interests were looked after. He achieved a sales’ price above our expectations, we recommend him highly.

Blake was professional, easy to contact, great communication, trustworthy, and went above and beyond to help us in our purchase. Best real estate agent we’ve dealt with.

Blake had recently sold my daughters property in Kincumber and reached above the expectation of the owners selling this property so quickly. We decided to maintain Blake to sell our property at Green Point. Blake had an excellent knowledge of the area and values of the properties selling at this time, which enabled him to be able to compare our property. Blake was in constant contact with us through every stage to advise us of the progress. Blake was able to explain the process of selling a property in a manner you could understand and be comfortable with. Blake always made himself available to answer any questions we had. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent to work with. He faced a lot of challenges with this sale and was able to discuss these issues with the buyers with his skills and knowledge to overcome these. Well done Blake and well deserved of a 5 star rating

Blake is a most professional & highly knowledgeable Real Estate Agent who provides an excellent level of Service and maintains regular contact throughout the process. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Blake to anyone looking to Sell their Property.

I thoroughly recommend Blake as a person of good moral standing to look after both the vendor and buyer in the execution of the sale. His never-ending ambition to succeed makes him stand out and over the rest of his peers in the industry. He is always steadfast in his ability to execute a sale and help out all parties concerned. His qualities are as follows: - Professional at all times - Punctual on the ringer at all times - Communication be paramount - Non-pushy attitude in favour of both vendor and buyer - Keeping us in the loop at all times - Totally transparent to both vendor and buyer - A positive and highly motivated attitude - A team effort by all parties concerned - His execution of the sale being par excellence - He goes over and beyond the call of duty to his vendor - His follow up on clients is par excellence Thank you again Blake. Yours sincerely, Steve

Blake was amazing to deal with, very friendly and knowledgeable. He was incredibly helpful throughout the process of purchasing our first home, answered all our - many - questions and addressed our worries in a timely and professional manner. Would recommend him in a heartbeat and would love to do business with him again in the future if the opportunity arises.

I found Blake to be very professional and willing to provide a service and understanding for both the buyer and the vendor. I would find it hard to keep that balance yet Blake has the right personality to provide that level of service and uphold a kind yet professional manner. Well done.

I have known Blake Stretton from Gittoes since I purchased a property through him back in 2014. In the five years since then he has been my go-to agent - after him taking such good care of me as a buyer I would find it hard to put trust in anyone else to look after the sale of my home. When considering putting my waterfront property in Green Point on the market, contacting Blake was my first priority. He helped me with the whole process of getting the house styled and ready for sale, and he even took it upon himself to assist me in getting the house tidy and ready prior to showing people through for inspections. It’s the little things like this that make him stand out as an agent and as a young man. It was Blake’s suggestion to put the property up for auction, which I agreed to. In addition to the normal signage and advertising, we also ran a social media campaign and Blake also managed to get my property on the front page of the Express Advocate Real Estate lift-out. To his credit Blake secured a wonderful offer – higher than I was expecting – prior to auction, which I accepted. Although selling is a stressful process, which is to be expected, it was still a great experience dealing with Blake - he took all the burden from me and allowed me to enjoy the remaining time in my home because I knew the sale process was in good hands. Thank you Blake and the Gittoes team!

Blake’s experience in the Green Point market has granted him an unmatched awareness of what buyers want, making his advice to sellers on pricing and presentation an invaluable resource. Moderate in temperament and polite in tone, he gives buyers every opportunity to make their best offer. And sellers may be confident they have the best possible result. Thank you, Blake, for a wonderful job in the marketing and sale of my Green Point property. One open house, multiple offers and SOLD!

Blake recently sold our home in Green Point. From the start to the end, the whole process was made easier by Blake. He was realistic with the price he set for the house, not giving us some huge number just to gain our business. He provided very helpful style tips that really enhanced the look of our home. Dealing with Blake was easy. He was great at communicating every step of the way and never made us feel that our 100's of questions were a burden. Blake worked with us and made us feel part of the team selling our home, advising us the correct way to approach selling our home and even providing tips to help us purchase a new home. Gittoes also provides a website login for vendors which was fantastic. On this I could track the interest in my home, what people had said word for word in any written communication with Blake and any offers on the table. The whole process was transparent. Without doubt we would use Blake again and would recommend Gittoes and Blake to anyone selling their home! Nat and Scott
