I wish to express my strong appreciation of the excellent service I received from David Truswell, Manager of the Hillsea Arundel Office who acted for the owners in selling me their duplex property at 1/37 Brown Street, Labrador. David's achievement was exceptional because I was an 'absentee buyer' looking to purchase in two special Gold Coast suburbs - but living and working full-time in Rockhampton on the Central Coast and doing most of my research at a distance on the internet starting in November 2016. I had no luck at all for a few weeks until I noticed the very strong advertising presence of Hillsea'a Arundel Office on realestate.com and phoned David to ask for help. His response was strong, precise and immediate - none of the usual blarney about "well, I'll take your details" and "we'll see what I can find" - which actaully means "if you were here in my office waving your cheque-book I might be able to help you!' David quickly sensed that I was a very serious buyer, asked me all the right questions on the phone, gave me a brilliant summary of the Arundel/Labrador market and promised immediate ACTION. And that is what I got. Two or three phone calls, emails and leads per week after that in a very tight market with few new listings. David gave me a more personal and professional service in the following weeks than I received from other agents I had also contacted to help me - agents whom I worked with myself in the Gold Coast in the early 2000's. By chance - on 14 February 2017 I was in the Gold Coast on family business when David phoned me in the late afternoon (not knowing that I was in town) and said: "Chris, I am just listing the property you want!" About two hours later (after a quick inspection) I was in his office completing a Contract and I am now the owner of a lovely duplex at a fair price and in exactly the right location. I am very grateful to David Truswell for the time and skill and hard-earned experience he devoted to my search for a modestl

From the beginning David was very professional, gave us all details we needed to know, wasn't unrealistic about price we could achieve & we were very happy with the result.

We used David to sell a house for us In Southport. I found David to be extremly helpfull and his local knowledge of the area was very impressive ,I felt confident in his advise and I was very impressed with the overall result. I would have no hesitation at all in not only reccommending him but also engageing his services again.

We have bought and sold many properties with David as our agent. His knowledge and expertise in real estate is outstanding and it is refreshing to deal with such a pleasant, honest and reliable agent. We highly recommend David, for buying and selling properties.

Great communicator & negotiator.Hard working family man.Does what he says he is going to do.Honest which is very hard to find in a real estate agent.

David has been a pleasure to deal with. He has excellent knowledge and experience of the local property market and assisted us in purchasing an investment property with some sound advice. It was a stress free process and David was patient, helpful and just lovely to deal with, without the hard sell approach . His property management team have also proved invaluable given we had an unexpected minor repair a week after purchasing the property which was resolved promptly. We would highly recommend David.

I found David very honest and easy to deal with , he bent over backwards to try and find the best sale price for my place and communicated very openly throughout the process , when the time comes to purchase another property he will be the first person I call , David was a pleasure to deal with

David was a great agent for us, he sold and negotiated our purchase. I would have no hesitation in recommending David to any one in the Gold Coast Region.

David is professional and trustworthy. He found us the perfect investment property and made the whole process seamless. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone looking for honest, direct and accurate advice. Regards Matt

I was recently faced with what seemed to be a daunting task of selling my family home. I contacted David Truswell to discuss the market. He gave me a fair appraisal of the property and gave me immediate feedback following any inspection. He explained the whole selling and purchase procedure to me and never at any stage did I feel anxious. David is extremely conscientious, honest, sincere and respectful and it has been a pleasure indeed to write this review for a fine real estate agent.

David was a pleasure to deal with. He gave me a no nonsense appraisal of my property, backed up with research on recent similar sales in the area. He got me a price I was happy with and communicated well throughout, answering all of my silly questions. Very easy transaction and a good result. I would not hesitate to use David again.

David's knowledge and experience in the industry made purchasing my home a great experience. David lead me step by step through the entire process making it simple and stress free. I'll definitely be calling David again for future endeavours. I recommend David to anyone looking to sell or purchase a property.
