Great Team, Great Job, Great Result!

Great Team, Great Job, Great Result!

We would like to thank Darren Bennet and Larry Eckhoff for the fantastic job they did in selling our house. The positive energy they provided throughout the selling process was very welcome during this stressful time for us. We were very pleased with the auction result and were very impressed by Darren’s auction style and believe he achieved the very best result possible for us. Larry’s work running the open houses was fantastic and he kept us informed and up to date. We know that Darren and Larry had the entire team behind them and we would like to thank everyone involved. Great Team, Great Job, Great Result!

Job well done

Thank you to Darren and the team at McNamees for a job well done in the sale of our under lease Queanbeyan unit. In particular, they did a great job negotiating with the tenants in order to get prospective buyers to view the property. That netted the result we sought. A job well done by the team.

Solid agent, sold our place twice!

Solid agent, sold our place twice!

Darren did a solid job, and during the process respected both our needs, and those of the purchaser (ended up selling it twice due to unforeseen purchaser situation). Would happily recommend him.

Excellent Agent and Agency as a whole

Excellent Agent and Agency as a whole

This is the third time that my wife and I have approached Ian McNamee as a agency to either sell our house or assist in the purchase. We have been extremely happy with the outcome on each occasion. In particular Darren has assisted us personally on two occasions. The first occasion was to find a house to buy and although we did not settle on a house through Ian MacNamee this was not through the efforts of Darren in trying to find us a suitable house to purchase. Darren was up front and listened to the particular requirements that my wife and I had when looking for our current house. The right house never came across the books of Ian MacNamee. I would have no hesitation in recommending Darren when it comes to searching for your dream home. Darren will do everything he can to find that home. We have recently sold our house and Darren was the main agent involved with the sale. Darren is one of the most passionate real estate agents that I have dealt with. I would ceretainly recommend Darren to be the local agent I would deal with when it comes to selling a property. This was the first property that my wife and I sold through the auction process. We were hesitant at first but it was through Darren's communication with us and explanation of the process that we went with an auction sale. In the end it worked for us. I can honestly say I feel that it was through Darren's negotiation skills that the sale was a success. What impressed me the most with Darren was the fact that he included a junior agent of Ian MacNamee into the sale team for our house. This will only improve corporate knowledge of Ian MacNamee. Finally I would not hesitate in recommending Darren or the team of Ian MacNamee in the sale of a property or employing their services to help find a property to buy.

Long term support - a straight shooter

Long term support - a straight shooter

I have worked with Darren over the last 15 years. In this time he has sold 2 properties for me and has managed the letting of two properties. I have found his advice to be honest, open and accurate which allowed me to invest with open eyes. The recent sale has been protracted and Darren advised me of the optimum time and price to sell and when those two came together, Daren gained the sale

Wonderful result by the McNamees team

Wonderful result by the McNamees team

We would like to thank the McNamee's team for the wonderful result in the sale of our house at auction. Darren was adamant an auction would yield the best result - it proved a masterstroke. Larry worked tirelessly at the open homes. The extra time he spent at them including staying longer than planned for clearly interested potential buyers is greatly appreciated. As vendors, it was worth the extra effort to prepare the house so it was spotless for each open home. Potential buyers returned for second, third and fourth inspections and brought them to the auction.

Found Darren to be very understanding as I was selling my home that I had lived in for 52 years. He guided me through every step and was always available to answer all questions.
