Open, Honest, Calm and Confident
It has been a pleasure for my wife and I buying a property from selling agent Claude Makdesi from Obriens Real Estate, Chelsea .
Right from the start Claude was personable and open with us, as it was a private sale with more than one offer on the table and with varying conditions Claude remained contactable ( always answers the phone, actually ALWAYS seems to be WORKING! Note: Hey Claude, have a holiday!!) and he remained transparent throughout the negotiation with his vendor (and my wife and I.) Committed and tireless (due to geological constraints) Claude drove a contract in to the city for us to sign on two separate occasions to help us ensure that our latest offer was in front of his client.
Now I’m well aware that Claude is contracted to be working for his vendor, not us, and I am sure his vendor is as happy as we are!! But I must say, with his good humor, his youthful vigor, great rapport and constant phone contact I not only felt like he WAS working for us, but I also feel that , in Claude Makdesi , I personally actually have a new friend in the neighborhood . One simply cannot have too many of those.
My wife and I would totally recommend buyers and sellers alike to put themselves in his capable hands , we wish Claude all the best with his bright future and we can’t wait till settlement when we can action our “sea change” and slow the pace down a little , in pursuit of our “happily ever after” beside the best beach in Melbourne.
Cheers
