As a buyer who was new to the area I found Fran’s local knowledge to be very useful in helping me to decide on a suitable property. I also found Fran to be extremely professional, always returning my calls and never too pushy. Although she did work hard for her seller!
Fran managed get me a great a result given the current market conditions, she executed the campaign exceedingly well and managed the buyers to achieve the sale with a quick settlement for me.
Fran managed to get a great result me in very difficult market, she never pushed me to lower my price and gave great advice along the way that proved to be right.
We met with a number of agents before choosing Fran to sell our investment property. Our priority was in selecting someone who cared about our individual property selling for the best possible sale price, not just another property on their “to sell” list. Fran was a clear winner! We needed someone who was an excellent communicator, as we live interstate and needed to do most of the transaction via email or phone. Fran and her team ticked all these boxes, and excelled along every step of the way. We would definitely recommend Fran for anyone looking to sell their home or investment property.
We felt we were in great hands with Fran. If we had any concerns in this tough market, Fran spend time talking through options with us with a honest & fresh approach. She was always professional but still added her personal touch which was appreciated.
After speaking with 7 agents about the sale of my place, it was Fran's tenacity, tailoring the plan to suit my circumstances and just being a top person that won me over. Fran and Lukasz were great communicators, gave great feedback and suggestions around styling and marketing, while also seeming to be always available! The challenge of an uncertain market meant that the final price they acheived was excellent. Based on my experience with Fran, McGrath will be the first agent I speak to when looking to purchase again. I can only hope they are all as good as Fran.
Fran came up with the marketing strategy that most resonated with us. With the market in decline and auction clearance rates in freefall, Fran was able to find the only serious buyer for our house and maximise our result. The recommendation to sell prior to auction before the buyer was able to realise he was a lone bidder was vindicated. I had a couple of friends selling at the same time as us. Comparing notes with them, it was clear to me that Fran was providing a more professional service right the way through, to the extent that one of the couples said that if they had their time over they would have gone with McGraths.
We selected McGrath from a short list of 3 local agents, as they scored highest on our personal selection criteria, and were not disappointed with our choice in what turned out to be a very difficult market. Throughout the campaign we were guided through the process with enthusiasm, kindness and consideration of our personal circumstances and were kept informed of progress and outcomes in a timely manner. Fran and Lukas were always available - it seemed that they were never off duty whatever time of the day or night ! We were naturally disappointed with the fact that it didn't sell at auction and the subsequent price achieved, but recognise it was the forces of the property market and certainly not a reflection on the agent. The fact is in a plummeting property market, agents have to work harder for less reward so even more of an accolade that Fran and Lukas carried out the job with such enthusiasm. I would certainly recommend our team at McGrath and wish them all well in the future.
Fran and the team at McGrath Sandringham achieved an astounding result for us at auction, in September 2018 in a tough market. From the moment I first met Fran, when she picked me up from work for our first meeting, I felt at ease, and she was helpfull in providing information and explaining all the available options. Fran provided regular updates, advice, support, and also moral support, especially when we encountered some legal difficulties, and regularly called during this stressful time to check and see how we were going. Fran maintained our best interests at heart and the result was evident on auction day. We couldn't have been happier and highly recommend Fran. Thanks Fran.
I highly recommend Fran and the team at McGrath Sandringham who achieved a great result for my property in a tough market.
Fran was a breath of fresh air to deal with when purchasing our home. She was extremely easy to talk to and helpful with any questions we had. She helped us through the negotiation process allowing us to purchase at a price that did not push our financial limits. She had time for a chat and kept us at ease throughout this stressful and uncertain time. Thanks Fran, we would definitely recommend you to our friends and family.
Fran is a wonderful and refreshingly honest and transparent person. In an industry that has a reputation for shady dealings and deceit she is the opposite and works very differently to other agents. Fran is warm, compassionate and thoroughly professional. She knows the industry through many years of experience and will work very hard for you. I would highly recommend her and all the McGrath Sandringham agents. Our sale experience was a very good one thanks to Fran and her team.
