Thanks Donovan! Great job! You were spot on with the price and didnt mislead with excessive optimism. Really good working with you. Everything was handled quicky and efficiently. We couldnt have asked for anything more . We are very happy. Annie
Donavan delivered a marketing campaign and subsequent sale price we were happy with. He went above and beyond to achieve our desired outcome and we would have no hesitation in recommending him to any potential seller. He and Jennifer, his right hand lady, made everything as seamless as possible and made the process far more enjoyable than we thought it would be. Their combined professionalism and knowledge allows them to be both well liked by the sellers and the buyers which no doubt leads to desired outcomes for everyone. Donavan and Jennifer were a pleasure to work with.
We found Donovan and his team to be incredibly professional. They knew the area and the market, giving us confidence in the expected sale price.
From the buyer perspective, I think I would consider using him if I were to sell my place in the future.
I recently bought a property managed by Donovan. Throughout the experience, Donovan kept me informed of all necessary information regarding the property (contracts, auction requirements, strata reports etc). Donovan promptly returned my calls and was always willing to seek as much information for me as possible - nothing was too hard. Donovan had in-depth knowledge of property pricing in the area as well as available services, and I always felt like the information being relayed was realistic. I highly recommend Donovan for future property buyers.
We found that Donovan has a good sense of the market. He has a realistic and current sense of the selling price. He is friendly and easy to work with.
We have been in the market for past 12 months and each time we met Donovan and his assistant they have been most courteous and considerate. With our recent purchase at Wollstonecraft we could not have been happier with the after service from his team at McGrath. They found a tenant for the unit within one week of signing the purchase contract and there was no time lost in rental upon settlement of the property. During the Open Home for the property, we questioned Donovan on their rental assessment. We felt it was overstated. The published rental estimate was actually lowered by Donovan. To our pleasant surprise the rental McGrath has been able to obtain for us was about 7% above their guidance. We should not have doubted Donovan and their team's expertise. Thank you Donovan, Jen and Paige.
From the moment I met Donovan to interview him as the potential agent to sell my mother's property, he impressed me as being very professional and measured in his approach and with a deep understanding of the market, surrounding properties and potential buyers. He made excellent suggestions regarding the ideal preparation and presentation of the property. He then project managed the necessary renovation and styling to present the property in immaculate condition. He reported regularly during the marketing process and gave excellent advice around the auction process. Whilst the price guide used in advertising was strong, the sale price at auction exceeded the top of the price guide range by almost 10%. I would unhesitatingly use him for any future sales in the area. The best recommendation of his performance is in a comment a rival agent made when I visited an open inspection of another property on the day of the auction, when the agent expressed amazement with how good the sale price was and the personal view that the price guide was set too high.
Donovan provided an outstanding service throughout our recent campaign to sell a two-bedroom apartment. As first-time vendors, we were grateful for his ability to communicate clearly about what to expect and indicate on a daily basis how the campaign was proceeding. He has an excellent knowledge of the local market in the Wollstonecraft / Waverton area. He went out of his way to come and meet us, at our convenience. We would recommend him to others in our position.
We selected Donovan to sell our investment property, from the start I was impressed by Donovan's approach. On our first meeting he had all the information we required to make our decision and bought his Stylist to provide a quote. This made the process seamless. There were no hassles and Donovan and his team kept me up to date and were very helpful in ensuring the property was ready for sale. We were very happy with the price achieved and would use Donovan again.
Peter sold our home alongside Donovan, together they worked well and sold our home to expected results.
