We are extremely happy with the professional service we have received from Duncan and his team in the recent sale of our property. We have had previous dealings in purchasing properties with Duncan and would highly recommend him and his team in any property dealings.

In the past 17 years I've bought and sold five houses in Sydney, the NSW South Coast and Geelong. The quality and skill of said agents has ranged from abysmal to adequate, yet in Duncan's case I finally found a very good agent indeed. He ticks all of the boxes on a buyer/vendor's wish list. That is, his manner, even under duress is courteous and thoughtful. He is a born diplomat, capable of fielding even the most bizarre buyer enquiry and is tireless in his attention to detail. Duncan genuinely enjoys his profession and remains upbeat and positive, but never promises what he can't deliver. Above all he is honest, something money really can't buy.

Duncan Skene made our buying and selling experience amazing and easy. Communication was outstanding and we highly recommend this agent.

Given good advice on market, kept up to date with sale of property. Great communication, great marketing approach, successful auction on the day.

To Whom It May Concern I commend Maxwell Collins to deal with your real estate requirements. They've recently successfully sold another property for my wife and I. Maxwell Collins are a leading Agent in the Barwon Region and their professionalism and integrity is second to none. Duncan Skene, their Sales Consultant for our latest sale is hard working and a great real estate salesperson! Yours Sincerely, Peter Emmerson

This was the first time I have sold one of my properties in Geelong. Duncan was very accommodating with my views and little understanding of selling property. The house itself was in poor condition and needed some maintenance done however due to circumstances I didn't have the time or resources to do so. We received some very low offers however Duncan still managed to fulfill on his promise and sell the property at the initial price I wanted. He is a great negotiator and I am very glad he was working for me. I am extremely happy and grateful for all of his help from the start to the end of the sale.

We are most thankful for Duncan's professionalism as an agent. He was always inclusive, informative and reassuring. He went out of his way to achieve a result of which we are appreciative, could not have asked for more. Duncan is good to be with, he adheres to the adage, " The shortist distance between two people is a smile". Thank you Duncan and Tom, our regards best wishes. PHIL and Liz Jones.

Dealings with Duncan and Eugene at Maxwell Collins was first rate initial discussions and our objectives were carried out to the letter communications through the auction campaign were excellent and result at auction was great I personally have my own realestate business on the nsw Vic border and was very happy to do our business with Maxwell Collins

Thanks to Duncan and the team at Maxwell Collins for their outstanding service and commitment in helping us to achieve an amazing price in the sale of our property. Duncan was both professional and knowledgeable of the current market. From the initial sign up, everything Duncan promised was delivered and we were thrilled to sell our house after being on the market for only 9 days. We would definitely recommend Duncan and the Maxwell Collins Real Estate team.

I purchased my property in Belmont several years ago from Duncan and put the property management with Maxwell Collins. Over the following few years, with a few different plans in mind, we had reason to reach out to Duncan for assistance. He has always returned calls or emails and made a point of randomly touching base giving me an update on the market at the time in the area or to see if we were interested in selling or purchasing. Our property was in the same street as the CSIRO laboratories and the sale & development of that site was of interest to us. Duncan sent newspaper articles or council notifications to me with updates on the site at his own initiative . We don’t live in the area so it was great to be kept in the loop on this and other local news. After finally making the decision to sell we didn’t talk to anyone else, Duncan was the natural choice based on the customer service and attention to detail he had provided up to this point; we had no reason to look elsewhere. We listed the house for Auction, went through the process, Duncan kept us informed every step of the way after each open and pre auction and successfully negotiated a sale on the day. All of this was done remotely, via phone and internet with our only attendance on the day of auction, this was a major bonus for us. It should be noted that our property was tenanted, so Duncan and his team worked closely with our long term tenant to ensure she was not overly burdened by the sale process, giving her fair notice of inspections and working with her to present the property at its best; something we both appreciated. I would recommend Duncan and his team to manage, sell or assist with any property needs in the Geelong area.

We were extremely pleased to have had Duncan Skene and Tom Kelly involved in the selling of my parents property. They both made the process a pleasurable experience for myself and my elderly parents and kept us fully informed and updated throughout the campaign. We were very pleased with the end result! Thank you Maxwell Collins! Sally Peel

I call Duncan after being referred to him from a friend who said he was good. I thought I might as well get another quote (had already pick out who I was going with but it never hurts). I called him up and the response I received was outstanding. His approach was gentle and honest. He did not try and tell me things or put any pressure on me to sign with him. He went and had a look at my little unit and gave me great advice on what to do with it. He then walked me through the whole painful process with ease. He was just as excited as I was when we sold the unit in 2 days, for $10,000 more than I wanted after advertising it online. At no point did I feel he was feeding me a line or trying to pull the wool over my eyes. His level of professionalism is outstanding.
