David is not only a lovely agent but also very professional to deal with. He is very knowledgeable of the current market conditions and was easy to work with. David went the extra mile to get the deal done for us and we highly recommend him. Thanks again David!
David and the rest of the Award Group team were absolutely brilliant to work with from the onset. David is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional and worked with us to achieve our desired outcome. David’s marketing strategy, ‘can do’ attitude and motivation left us feeling confident that he would get the best result possible on auction day and that he did. We can’t recommend David and the AGRE team enough!
My relative recommended David as a real estate agent that I could trust with the sale of our family home. She was right. David was very professional, and he possessed a wealth of knowledge that informed his marketing plan. David ensured that I understood the marketing, auction, and sale process. He provided advice on home presentation, liaised with my solicitor, consulted with me regarding open-home dates and times, and always arrived as pre-arranged. He was also courteous and respectful. If you are considering selling, I definitely recommend that you contact David – he was excellent!
David and his team kept our stress levels to the minimum. We were provided with regular feedback and advise - there was plenty of hand holding for us throughout the marketing and sales process. On the day David and the team were as always there bright and early helping to ensure that our property was at its peak for viewing. As any vendor knows selling your house of 30 years is a real wrench and all we can offer is our thanks to David and the team for making it a positive experience - oh yes and a financial success.
I was looking to sell a unit in an area with oversupply. I contacted Award Group and was impressed from the get-go with how proactive and responsive they were. After the first open home I had four offers, three of which were above what I had been quoted by another agent. Throughout the entire process (getting ready for sale, organising the open home, following up with potential buyers) I was always kept informed. Absolutely blown away by the result I achieved. To David, Lochlan, and the rest of the Award Group team, THANK YOU!
We contacted a number of agents when we made the decision to sell our property. After meeting a few different agents on site, it was clear that David was the easy choice for us. He came across as very genuine and honest and didn't try to say things just to win our business. He simply told us what he thought and how he recommended we go about it and let us make the decision if that aligned with our thoughts. Thankfully it did and after following his advice, we managed to sell for $130,000 higher than our reserve price. He was open, honest and forthcoming with his communication throughout the process and made sure we were happy and confortable with the actions taken throughout the sale. As a result, we are more than happy to recommend David and his team to anyone looking to sell.
We found David and his team to be genuine and honest from the start. They assisted us throughout the entire process including help with organising trades to get the house ready for sale. They did numerous open homes and private inspections to get us the best result on auction day. We were kept well informed throughout the entire sale campaign and David was always available on the phone when needed. At no point were we ever pressured into taking offers to sell the property quickly. The end result was a sale price well above our expectations. I have been involved with the sale and purchase of property on several occasions and this was by far my best experience. Happy to recommend Award Group to anyone thinking of selling their property.
David is highly enthusiastic real estate agent and has excellent knowledge of the local area and selling pattern as they do most of the sales in and around Meadowbank and West Ryde area. Throughout the process David assisted me in many ways by answering all my doubts and keeping me regularly updated on the progress. This helped to relieve much of the stress. As we had already bought another house we needed to sell our investment property pretty much quickly. To our surprise, David was able to complete the sale within just 2 weeks since our first meeting with him with just one open house. I was very satisfied with David as my agent. I was confident in his knowledge, not only of the local market, but of the potential buyers in his network who would be interested in the property. I sincerely thank him for streamlining the process of selling my property . I wish him much success in the future.
We had a excellent experience with David. He clearly outlined a plan for the sale of our house. David was forthright and honest about developments concerning buyers and likely outcomes. He was the fighter we needed to achieve an outcome we wanted. Thank you David
David sold us this apartment in 2007, so we knew him from his early years into real estate & the area. He was enthusiastic, honest, and supportive of what we needed; not just focussed on the sale. We eventually shifted the property to a rental and Award Group handled the property management with the same approach and professionalism. When it came time to decide if we should sell in the current market, David and Lachlan dropped over and took us through the process, explained the value of a strong marketing plan, the benefits of designer furniture to really make property shine. It's a nice 2 bedroom apartment, but I can't call it overly special. It is clear to say to say that although I was expecting excellent service, what we experienced was quite simply spectacular. From 1 to 12 days; we signed to engage Award Group, David engaged as we organised the contract of sale, organised a quote and liaised with a furniture designer to layout the unit, the online ads were created and it had a first showing 9 days after engagement. With the marketing and the presentation - we had 15 groups through on the first day, and private viewings on the following Monday - all for a modern, however "simple" unit. David updated me across the day as he fielded offers and handled the bulk of decisions within our instructions to the moment Lachlan dropped over to our home to sign the contract of sale on Monday night. One Saturday & One business day - SOLD - for an excellent price within Davids price guide, and much more than I actually expected would be offered. David & Lachlan engaged with our conveyancer, the buyers conveyancer and the buyers lender to get it done - they stayed very involved at each step. Pleasingly, after 20 years in the business David simply hasn't changed; enthusiastic, honest, and supportive. If you want to sell your home and it's in Award Groups area, reach out to David - take his advice on marketing & layout, sit back and relax - you're in good hands.
David knows his stuff...and we already knew this going into the process of selling with him, after using the Award Group to purchase two other properties. There was not one moment in which we doubted David's advice or strategies. We would have no hesitation in recommending his team in partnering with other sellers.
David's pre contract pitch was impressive and thankfully the commitment, customer service, knowledge and outcome were spot on during sales campaign and post sale ...and possibly exceeded my high expectations. All other Real Estates we met mentioned possibility our commercial property would not sell in this tough post COVID climate, but David was confident of a quick sale and was subsequently sold in one week. Would highly recommend David Johnson and Award Group and will call on them for any future leasing / sales in future.
