Donovan has vast experience in Waverton and the adjacent neighbourhood and his expert knowledge was enormously helpful to us through the stressful process of both buying our next property and selling our present property. We cannot recommend him highly enough.
I recently assisted a client in selecting an agent to sell a large asset in Wollstonecraft. As a buyers agent I get to work with most sales agents. Donovan’s track record, easy going nature and experience made him a standout choice. He did a great job in handling the sale and was able to maximise the end price with favourable terms. He was a prompt communicator and kept me up to date with any progress. The clients are thrilled with the result and I’m looking forward to working with him for many years to come.
Having sold three properties recently, Donovan was by far the stand out agent of the three we engaged. Why? He reads buyer sentiment well, considered in managing your expectations through the process and clearly a good relationship manager. It can be a gamble engaging agents - some are flashy and promise the world... and you really don't know what actually happens with buyer engagement. I had confidence that Donovan managed the relationship with the spectrum of buyers (genuine and otherwise) that achieved an outcome beyond our expectations.
Donovan sold our property to us nine years ago and when it came time for us to sell, he was the obvious choice. At the outset, Donovan prepped us well for the strategy and what the campaign would look like. He was transparent and honest throughout the process and negotiated a good outcome for us. Donovan is well supported by Kate and we found both of them to be very easy to deal with - friendly, pleasant, and honest. We would recommend Donovan to anyone looking to buy or sell on the lower north shore, particularly in the Waverton / Wollstonecraft area.
Excellent market knowledge, professional services, highly recommended
We previously bought the same apartment from Donovan and he was great to deal with from the buyers perspective so we went with him for the sale. Wasn’t the easiest process but that was not the fault of Donovan, he did his best and we eventually got a satisfactory result under less than ideal circumstances. I really appreciated his attentiveness after settlement which speaks volumes to the type of guy he is.
We first noticed Donovan when we were looking for our first apartment and he’d frequently be the selling agent. He was friendly and professional. When we came to buy, he was the vendor’s agent. Even though we were negotiating against him, Donovan was always professional - treating us with respect and not playing any games. After 5 happy years, when it was time to sell our unit, the obvious choice was Donovan. He instilled trust through being clear on the process, always picking up the phone, frequently updating us with where the bidders were at and adapting his strategy depending on the level of interest. Thanks Donovan, we were very pleased with the process you ran for us.
We previously used Donovan and his team for a sale of a property in Wollstonecraft, and given how pleased we were with the result there, we decided to go ahead with the team for this sale, slightly out of his normal area of expertise but that didn't hinder the experience or sale at all. Very good result given the market, we were happy and wouldn't hesitate to use the team again if needed in the future.
I am very grateful to have had Donovan handle this transaction. He is refreshingly genuine; it made all the difference.
I have never meet a more comprehensive and honest person Absolute pleasure to deal with and a fair dinkum person
Donovan was a great at clearly communicating with me on interested buyers and their genuine status. He seemed very fair to all parties in the transaction and was very easy to work with. His support team (especially Kate) were amazing at getting all the little (time consuming) things done -nothing was too much trouble. This part of the Di Jones service I hadn't anticipated and (as I was interstate) Kate's help was invaluable. Donovan and Kate are an exceptional team. Thanks for an easy journey.
