Brian Baker

Not only did we buy our house through Brian, we sold it through him. Brian has a wealth of real estate experience, which coupled with his enthusiastic and output driven focus makes Brian the agent to go to for all your reality needs.

Brian was very pleasant and experienced and our buying experience was as we hoped.

We had such a positive experience purchasing through Brian. He is an excellent communicator, always professional and efficient. We felt he brought considerable expertise to the process and he always conducted himself politely and with integrity. Brian was very diligent and had a willingness to ensure the process was stress free. His communication was very clear, extremely prompt and always polite. He was always very respectful of his client. We would definitely recommend Brian.

I first met Brian after receiving a flyer in the mailbox outlining recent property sales in my neighbourhood. At the time I was contemplating selling my house in two or three years as part of my planned retirement to the Sunshine Coast. About a week earlier I had been advised by another agent that my house would sell in a week as is, for a figure of $400,000 plus. This surprised me given I thought it was only worth around 380 to 390 at the time. However, the prices displayed on the flyer indicated a figure of 450 and over might be achievable. These figures had me thinking a much earlier retirement might be possible. Hence I called Brian, who after assessing the property, advised he was confident of selling off the market for the above figure. Now I was thinking a much earlier retirement might be possible. To this end, I advised Brian I was in no hurry to sell, however if he could find a buyer for 460 I would. Brian advised this was achievable and why, ahead of arranging a few off-the-market inspections for several prospective buyers. This resulted in a written offer close enough to 460, a figure which I advised Brian I would be happy to sell at. However, based upon the good response the off-market inspections produced, Brian advised a higher offer would be possible through an open house. This went ahead asking for offers over 449. It produced four more offers over the 460 we already had, and ultimately resulted in selling the house for the grand total of $467,500. A figure well in advance of the 390 I considered it was worth just 4 weeks earlier. I believe this outcome would not have been possible without Brian's expertise. What impressed me most about Brian was his market knowledge, his ability to provide clear explanations of what sells a property and the how and why of going about it.

We were extremely impressed with Brian’s professionalism, expertise and enthusiasm. From our first contact, he was reliable and courteous and gave us invaluable advice when preparing our property for the market. Brian’s knowledge of current market conditions helped us achieve an outstanding result: selling for a price above our expectations after less than 24 hours on the market. We would recommend Brian unreservedly for anyone wanting a stress free experience with an excellent agent.

Brian was extremely helpful and responsive. He is both professional and friendly - I would recommend Brian to friends amd family.
