From the very beginning, Cedric and Maria did all in their power to ensure ours was a smooth, stress-free auction campaign. They returned phone calls and messages without delay, and responded to our queries promptly and honestly. I was impressed that they also followed up on buyers' questions with us. This is something we have seen little evidence of with any of the agents we've dealt with in searching for our next home. Cedric and Maria's genuine warmth and sound real estate experience gave us absolute confidence that we were in good hands, and helped us through the emotional ups and downs that come with selling the family home of fifteen years. Having lived in Murrumbeena for longer than we have, their local knowledge is second-to-none. Neighbours commented on how well-known they are locally, and I'm sure this, along with their down-to-earth personalities, gave buyers confidence. Our auction was a stellar success that exceeded our reserve by more than $100K. I have no hesitation in recommending Cedric and Maria, and would be happy to provide a telephone reference also.

Buying real estate in Melbourne can be an emotional roller coaster but Cedric and Maria made it a pleasant experience for us. They are good listeners, authentic and provide support where possible. Thanks to Maria we even got a partial refund for the building inspection when she found out that another person had used the same building inspector for the same property as us. And I am now enjoying a three months sock subscription thanks to Cedric.

Purchase a property is a big decision to make. Thanks Newbond with all helps in the purchasing process and they are lovely couple and I fund it is great pleasant to deal with them.

I have found that Cedric and Maria Newbond work very well as a team and they gave me many useful tips on the preparation of my house prior to sale. They are always keen to assist in any way they can as well as gaining my permission before doing anything that could be considered intrusive.

Cedric and maria newbond are very professional with compassion and integrity. They are a plessure to do business with.

Cedric`s campaign of our property sale was very well matched to our needs' Cedric`s communication skills are exceptional and helped pave the way for the daunting task ahead. He pursued every avenue to achieve the best outcome, and very clear in his explanation once the negotiations have led to a sale but at the same time not forceful, leading to a comfortable and relaxed decision on the vendors behalf. Cedric & Maria combine to make a great team to manage the property to assist in every aspect of obtain a great result. Thanks Cedric & Maria

Cedric and Maria are a fantastic team. They are extremely knowledgable about the Murrumbeena property market. This is the second property we have purchased from Cedric over a period of 20 years. We highly recommend Cedric and Maria when selling or buying your property. They are the gold standard in realestate.

Cedric and Maria were professional but most of all warm and this gave us all comfort in the sale of our family home. They kept us well informed from the start to finish. Their reputation and knowledge did not let us down.

Cedric was very professional to deal with excellent communication

We were very fortunate that we asked Cedric and Maria Newbond of Woodard's Carnegie to help us with the sale of our property. Their professionalism, hard work and organisation made our selling experience a positive one. We were delighted that they kept us informed at all times. The advertising generated significant interest in our property and their follow up of potential buyers was excellent.Cedric is a highly experienced and a most engaging Auctioneer. He was able to clearly highlight the best features of our property and he encouraged buyers to participate.We were very happy with the whole experience and the result.

Cedric. Was very professional and has great knowledge of the local market We have no hesitation in recommending this agency Paul and Margo Radnell

Yes I would as although I was a purchaser, Cedric was very professional in his dealings with me but didn't put the 'hard sell' on. He has continued to communicate with me following the auction to check that everything was going ok. If I was selling, I would use Woodards and Cedric as my agent.
