Team Dean provided a superb service on every level. We will be back!! David & Claire Simpson

Before you decide to sell your property you must have done your homework and decided what your property is worth. Do this by looking up what similar properties recently sold for in your area not by the asking price. You may decide that your property is not going to fetch your asking price and that it may be better to wait until things turnaround. Once you have decided to go ahead work out what commission you will pay with a sliding scale based on the sold price. You should have this in writing with your agent. Your marketing costs too should be well understood e.g Realestate.com.au are 3 times the price of Domain and may not be worth it for the long run. Make these decisions before you engage an agent. Your agent should be motivated, punctual and well presented. Expect that he or she communicates with you at least twice a week during the selling phase. I chose Elliott Dean because he kept in contact way before I had even considered selling. I admired his ability to keep at it, his personality and understanding. In the end my buyer knew Elliott from previous real estate dealings.

Elliott's secret is his friendly, timely communication. He takes the angst out of selling a property, by seemingly predicting when I wanted to hear an update, and delivered. His knowledge of the industry, backed by a wealth of experience within his team, together with his unique style of negotiating with prospective buyers, resulted in a positive and rewarding sale of my townhouse.

I found Elliott Dean to be very polite and totally professional in his approach to selling my unit. His knowledge of the unit market in my area is exceptional. I was most impressed with his negotiating skills in achieving a good price for me in a very short time frame. I also had some other specific requirements after settlement and once again Elliott managed to secure these for me as well. It made my whole experience so much easier than I had anticipated. I can't speak too highly of Elliott and highly recommend his services.

Originally, Elliott was the agent who sold me my property several years ago and I was incredibly pleased by his friendly manner and the outcome of his work. When I was recently entering the market to sell my market, he was the obvious choice due to his strength in the local area and very high ratings, and I was not let down. Throughout the process, he was a great help and very communicative, including helping to overcome some unexpected slowdowns. Overall, I'd rate Elliott very highly and would recommend him to anyone selling in the St Lucia (and surrounding) area.

Elliott clearly knows the St L market - from free-standing homes to apartments , whether they are 'Avenues' locations or not, he listens, works diligently and provides reports and updates throughout the entire process. Kate and I found Elliott easy to communicate with, honest and credible. I would advise listing with him every time.

We found Elliott Dean a pleasure to deal with. He won our confidence and trust on first meeting him and that was upheld during the negotiation and purchasing process. He is encouraging but not pushy. Communicates well with hosesty and credibility and an easy manner. We have no hesitation in recommending Elliott as a Great Agent! Margaret & Mark Pascoe

Elliot did a great job on the sale of our property. He showed extensive knowledge of the market and historic/current price points and maintained regular and thorough communication and achieved good result.

Really great at communicating with us and overall just a nice guy.

Before I decided on using Elliott Dean, who had been recommended by an acquaintance, I spoke to several other agents. Following this, I felt way more confident & comfortable in Elliott's overall skill and approach, and strongly felt that he had my interest to promote, rather than his own. He was more open and flexible, explaining all aspects of selling a house. During the open house period, Elliott was very focused on attracting as many potential buyers as possible and this proved a very successful approach. I am very satisfied with Elliott Dean and the sale price for my property. I would have no hesitation recommending him.

Elliott achieved a great result in under a week! Having one owner in NQ and the other in Brisbane, he managed to keep everyone up to date and included in the discussions and decision making process. Elliott exceeded our price expectations and attracted multiple offers on our property in record time. If you are looking to sell, I highly recommend giving Elliott and his team a call. You won't be disappointed.

My brother and I engaged Elliott to sell our mother's St Lucia apartment for her and from the start were impressed with Elliott's professionalism, his Market knowledge and his excellent communication and negotiating skills. Elliott's professionalism is matched by his enthusiasm. Nothing is too much trouble for him. We are extremely happy with the result Elliott achieved for our mother, which exceeded our expectations, and the work he put in to make that happen, (including his tailored marketing approach). A genuine, friendly guy who is great at his job. Thank you Elliott for taking the stress out of selling. We highly recommend Elliot to anyone looking for an agent.
