Buying and selling real estate can be a very stressful period, especially given the uncertainty and unpredictability that the current environment has created. While a competitor agent made our purchase far more stressful than it should have, or needed to be, Barry Plant and in particular Carolyn and her team made our sale as easy as possible. There were absolutely some challenges along the way, it’s a crazy time at the moment, and while we were challenged by the mixed messages sent by the market, we were able to seek reassurance from Carolyn, and saw the tenacity of Mario the auctioneer when it came down to the crunch. Our expectations were managed as well as they could be, and while we didn’t rewrite any sales records, we’re comfortable we got what the market was saying was a fair price. Happy to wait a while before we go through all that again anytime soon, but when we do would be happy to partner with Barry Plant again.

Carolyn has great marketing skills giving my property maximum exposure on social media, TV and radio interviews and on Barry Plant video. I achieved a premium price and Carolyn negotiated the settlement date which was exactly what I wanted. Well done and thank you so much!

Carolyn's experience, knowledge and calm way, gave me all the confidence needed during the campaign. Outstanding result. Very happy customer ♥️ thank you so much.

Carolyn was brilliant and really easy to work with. Her knowledge of the local area, the market and the sales process is second to none. She skilfully guided us through the process and was so consistent in her communication and offering of progress updates. We found her and her team incredibly responsive and professional. Her marketing strategy was on point and helped us achieve an above average sale price. Highly recommended.

Good proposal addressing our requirements, listened to the client, communicated well, completed tasks on time, made extra efforts, followed up well. Coped well with COVID challenges. Good team approach at Mount Waverley office.

We are delighted to deal with Ms. Carolyn when buying the property and also, have a very pleasant experience with her. Required information were provided swiftly and in a professional manner. She gave a great assistance and support during the inspections, as well as, after the auction. Thank you!

Carolyn has a lengthy real estate background most of which has been in this area. Her knowledge and experience helped us to agree on a realistic sale price range given the unusual circumstances existing at the time mainly COVID restrictions in place for most of the campaign. She was able to draw on a lead from another office of Barry Plant to achieve a successful result.

Carolyn helped me navigate a tricky negotiation/sale whilst I was assisting my mother from NSW. Her attention to detail and personal touch to support me has been magnificent. Can't praise her and her team enough - If you are looking for a real estate agency that truly cares about people ? Look no further than Carolyn - I'd recommend her to anyone - King Regards - Aaron McLeod ( Sydney )

Selling our family home after 50+years was quite an emotional experience, so who better to guide us through this procedure than Carolyn Barton from Barry Plant. Her understanding of the local market, easy manner of communication and reliability, together with her calm approach and expertise in navigating the changing rules during this pandemic, enabled us to meet our price expectation during this difficult time. Together with her colleague Jasmin they introduced the perfect buyers and successfully closed the sale.

Carolyn was very kind and understanding of our hope to find a family who would love and enjoy our family home as much as we did. She was very honest and reliable and kept us fully informed on progress and worked extremely hard to meet our wishes. She was always available and very helpful in addressing any concerns we had. She had a genuine commitment and passion to achieve a good outcome for us which we appreciated. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending Carolyn and the Barry Plant Team.

I have been buying and selling real estate for some 20 years in Melbourne. Carolyn Barton is without doubt, the most honest and open agent for both buying and selling that I have ever worked with. As a vendor, Carolyn gives honest feedback and honest appraisals based on the market not just what the vendor might want to hear or an elevated indicative price just to get you to sign up. Many agents work in unrealistic price ranges however Carolyn has ALWAYS been the most realistic. She has always been on ball with pricing and appraisals. Buying from Carolyn is also a very honest open experience where her knowledge is paramount. Carolyns knowledge of her area is extraordinary and she is to be congratulated on her hard work with an open approach.

Carolyn was very professional, friendly & accomodating she worked with us in the sale of the property from start to end to achieve our sale. We strongly recommend Carolyn & her team & would most certainly use her experience again if the need should arise.
