Fantastic to deal with.

Fantastic to deal with.

Chris and the UnReal team have been a pleasure to deal with from day one, and made selling my home a breeze. The whole process was straightforward and simple. Chris was great to communicate with over any concern or thought, regular updates meant I always knew what was happening, and the personalised marketing that went into the property listing truly captured my house's potential and showed it at its very best - no ridiculous AI or exaggerated camera angles you see elsewhere. I chose UnReal as they have a reputation for being realistic with prices, rather than inflating them just to get your interest. As a result, we had a genuine sale after only a fortnight on the market. I would highly recommend Chris and UnReal Estate to anybody looking to sell (or buy) a property.

Reliable and great communicator

Chris was professional, friendly, and easy to work with. He was always available to answer our questions, generous with his time, and happy to accommodate additional inspections when needed. We really appreciated how respectfully he balanced the sellers’ privacy and best interests while making sure we were well looked after as buyers.

Great Agent

I had the pleasure of working with Kim and Chris on the purchase of my new property. They were both fabulous to work with and made the whole process seamless. I can't thank them both enough and would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell on future.
