Great buy with an off-market opportunity

Great buy with an off-market opportunity

We met Darren at a few open homes prior to buying. We found our off-market opportunity from a database match that Darren sent us. Between us viewing the house for the 1st time and the vendor accepting was 6 days. Darren was open and honest during the negotiations process and has made what is normally a stressful experience really exciting for us. Would happily work with Darren again.

Exceeded my expectations on every front

Exceeded my expectations on every front

As a real estate professional myself I am all too aware of the negative impacts of choosing an average or below average real estate selling agent. My research and my gut both led me to choose Darren to take care of the sale of my Mum's property. In the softer market we are currently in I was more than impressed to have exchanged contracts on the Monday when the property only went live the Thursday afternoon before for a figure that exceeded expectations. Also it is refreshing to deal with someone who is genuine and not full of BS like some real estate selling agents can be. Would not hesitate to recommend Darren and JDH.

Fantastic Agent Highly Recommended

Darren and his team at JDH Real Estate have been absolutely amazing in selling our property, we sold in about 4 weeks and were so happy with the results. Everything went smoothly, they were so professional, honest and extremely knowledgeable, keeping us well informed throughout the whole process. They also sorted our rental needs after our sale. Would highly recommend JDH Real Estate

Great, Trustable and Accountable Agent

Great, Trustable and Accountable Agent

Darren is one of the best Real Estate agent I have dealt with so far! I would rate him 10 stars and would definitely recommend him to my friends when needed. We just recently bought a house via Darren, and the following is the reason I said - Great, Trustable and Accountable. We contacted Darren for the interest in the house while the other purchaser was almost close to exchange contract. We expressed our interest and requested Darren to update us the latest progress. Darren did updated us everyday for the progress and assisted us to obtain the agreement from Vendor while the other purchaser could not finish the deal as promised. Darren worked with Vendor to allow us necessary time to complete due diligence and to obtain bank former approval. Darren has done everything in his power to assist us in completing the deal in an efficient way. I would definitely recommend Darren to all hunting for dream home!

Extremely Attentive Agent

From the very start Darren explained every step of the process very thoroughly and communicated every update with us as vendors with immediacy. He was honest and direct, he literally left no stone unturned, if there was an opportunity, he already had explored it before we asked the question. Extremely efficient, we will definitely be using Darren again and highly recommend him.

Darren and his team were a dream to sell with!! You could not ask for a more honest or knowledgeable run agency. They were hard working & diligent , taking all the stress out of a stressful time. I will use them again and I would recommend them to anyone.

Outstanding All Round

Outstanding All Round

Without any question you can trust Darren and his team with the sale of your property. He exceeded all our expectations, providing direct, honest advice throughout. He was as invested as we were and worked tirelessly to secure the sale of our property. He made us feel like we were his number one priority. Darren also provided a wealth of information and guidance during the purchase of our new home. He is open, personable and honest, we were never left wondering. His local knowledge and market experience was invaluable. This experience was evident as we needed to sell our house very quickly due to a recent purchase, with the help of his team, he managed to get our house on the market and host the first open house within a couple of days. Ultimately securing the sale within 21 days. Selling a house is stressful but having Darren and his team on board made the whole experience a lot less stressful. Should we wish to sell again we would not hesitate in appointing Darren to facilitate the sale of our property. We highly recommend JDH Real Estate.

Best Service, best result!

We have had the great pleasure to get to know Darren over the past couple of years as we worked through our long term plan to market and sell our home. His firm but fair assessment of our property challenged us to do all we could to set up the property well. Not only does he have your best interest at heart, he understands the complex business of real estate and realistically shares his thoughts to keep you well informed. As such we couldn't have asked for a better partner to represent us in the local market. His positive nature is infectious, his time management impeccable, his attention to detail spot on and his professionalism forever present. Darren holds true to his commitments, delights you each step of the way and as a result delivered well beyond our expectations. Thank you Darren, sensational outcome!

Exceptional Agents

We felt it was very important to find an agent who knew our suburb well and could show buyers its value. Darren and Lisa's knowledge of the local area was exceptional. Their sales style was all about creating relationships with potential buyers and emphasising our homes strengths and potential. This turned out to be very important in securing our sale. Their personal touch, honesty and integrity, as well as, their great communication skills ensured we felt well supported throughout the process. We were always made to feel like we were their top priority. If you want exceptional agents that will be there with you every step of the way and who can be trusted to get you the best possible outcome for your sale then I would strongly recommend Darren Leach and Lisa Kringas.

An empathic and trustworthy agent

Our sincere thanks for leading us through the sale of our home to a highly successful outcome. In any field of endeavour two things are essential – leadership and teamwork, and Frenchs Forest First National excels in both. We were most appreciative of the sensitive way that you listened to our questions and needs and your open and honest dialogue with us. Unrealistic expectations only lead to disappointment. You gave us much of your time and we never felt rushed into making any decision. We were constantly reassured. We are also mindful of the behind the scenes work of all the members of your office staff who are involved in ensuring that all of the details of the marketing plan go smoothly.
