Throughout the process, he was transparent about other offers and the expectations of his vendor. Both he and his vendor remained true to their word on the final negotiation and exchange.

Sale went well with no problems

When I first saw the property I wasn't really impressed by it however after getting another call from Gray to look at the property after replacement of career and a paint job Gray gave me good insite about the area and street he made me see the position was what I was after. He was a pleasure to talk to very open and informative. Due to this nature I decided to rent out the property with him as well. Regards Andrew Makhlouf

We had the absolute pleasure of dealing with Gary on the purchase of our dream home. While Gary was working on the vendor's behalf, he was understanding, respectful and above all honest. He was very helpful throughout the whole process and guided us through each step of the way without being pushy. After seeing over 60 properties and meeting many real estate agents, we feel very lucky to have met Gary and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone wanting to sell a property - we would definitely use him if we were ever in a position of selling again.

After a very long search, I finally had the absolute pleasure of dealing with Gary Woodward when buying my first home. Gary clearly worked with the vendor’s interests front of mind, but dealt with us and other prospective buyers respectfully, fairly and honestly. He was friendly, kind and compassionate and was obviously very considerate of the circumstances and preferences of the vendor. After looking for over a year and dealing with many agents, it was wonderful to deal with an agent with such integrity! Gary also has extensive local knowledge after working in the area for a number of years. I would not hesitate to recommend Gary to anyone wanting to sell a property for a good price and to do it the right way.

When I decided to sell my home I contacted Skyline Real Estate and engaged Gary Woodward as my agent. I had lived in the house for 50 years and was very apprehensive about the procedure. However Gary explained the steps I needed to take. He gave me and the family lots of advice on how to prepare the house and property for the photographs and inspections. He was always upbeat and enthusiastic about my house and gave me lots of positive feed back which I needed at the stressful time. I was kept informed through the process, and the sale was made very quickly, and I was delighted with the resulting sale price. Gary was helpful and friendly at all times and worked very hard on my behalf. Thank you Gary, you did a great job! Jean Quinn, 35 Arnhem Road, Allambie Heights.

11 Billarong Avenue Dee Why 2099 Gary Woodward - a calm family orientated agent! Gary was amazing my wife felt very comfortable working with him, he listened and then advised. He stayed calm at times when we were not. I think selling your house is a very stressful time, it becomes very personal particularly if you love your house and you have fond memories of your children growing up there. People can be quite hurtful with their comments and you will become protective and you need a calm Independent voice that will help you evaluate the sale and help you make the correct decision. Gary was brilliant we can’t thank him enough. Colin & Tanya Woodward

Gary was an absolute delight to work with when we were in the process of purchasing our property through him. From the moment we walked into the property at the first inspection, he was friendly, helpful, and a genuine guy. He took the time to provide ideas to upgrade the house, plus quickly got to understand what we as a family required in a property and community, and then provided guidance for these needs. We hit a hurdle during our settlement period, and Gary was incredibly patient & supportive throughout the whole process. I couldn't rate him higher!

I would like to thank Gary Woodward for his great help in the sale of two properties for my husband and I in 2016 and 2013 In 2013 Gary guided us with the preparation and sale of our parents house in Allambie Heights. It was a tricky situation because they were frail and elderly and still living in the house. Gary was very gentle in his dealings with them and us at a difficult time. We delayed putting the house on the market for a few months and then Gary sold the house after our parents had moved to a nursing home. He was patient, but also very helpful. He helped to prepare the house for sale. Then it was our turn to sell in Frenchs Forest. In August 2016 he pointed out the advantage of selling this year, before the hospital building was further completed. Again Gary helped my husband with contacting tradesmen to fix a few things, guttering, clean the outside of the house, tidying the garden etc. Each telephone call Gary made - had the tradesman calling or turning up the next day! We couldn’t believe it! Our house sold within 11 days and three open houses. The advertising bought 100 people to view the house. We accepted a very good price and are very happy. He also showed us how to look at houses in Port Stephens where we are moving. We sincerely thank Gary and his team at Skyline Real Estate for making the whole process smooth flowing. He is honest, always calm and very friendly. A very reassuring person to have on your side when selling. Robyn & Bill Fairbairn Frenchs Forest 2086

Herewith a brief note to reflect my appreciation of your professional assistance with the recent task of marketing and selling my home of 42 years. Following the loss of my wife in 2012, I soon came to realize that the house was far too large for me alone. The thought of downsizing was frequently in my mind, and together with the Sydney market heating, up I decided to proceed with the option to sell. With many wonderful memories being derived from our time in the immediate area the decision to proceed was very much an emotional one. Your professional approach in dealing with the various procedures, strategies and tips related to the sale was invaluable. With your knowledge and advice regarding all aspects of selling points provided by the property, in conjunction with your sales manner when dealing with prospective clients, all came together to ensure quick success for the sale to proceed. I was also appreciative of your willingness to assist with points regarding just how the property should be presented, both internally and externally, and how to achieve the optimum results and sales price. I am pleased to provide this reference for you and wish you every future success.

Neil and I would like to sincerely thank you for the unbelievable quick sale of our home at 25 Andove Street where we have lived for over 41 years. We interviewed 2 other agents, but you were the only agent who explained the process step by step, in an easy to understand strategy and process focussing on how we would achieve a premium price for our home. You explained the difference between an emotional buyer and a practical buyer and the concept of dealing with less people for the right reasons at the right time. We had appointment only viewings from McGraths large qualified database and saved thousands on marketing costs. From our first meeting with you, we felt comfortable with your down-to-earth, warm, friendly personal touch. You were sympathetic and had empathy to fully understand our unique situation. We had peace of mind of not having the emotional stress of moving twice. You were totally professional in being in control of our interests all the way through the selling process. The end result was you sold our home in only 4 days for $150,000 more than some other agent’s opinions. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to our family and friends and anyone who is thinking of selling their home. Please feel free to pass on our number to any potential clients who would like to contact us with any doubts regarding your services.

Geoff and I would like to thank you for the fantastic effort you put into selling the place that we have called home for 49 years. Facing such an upheaval! after allthat time has been a very emotional and stressful process. From my first meeting with you, however, I knew you were the right person to help us navigate the sale. Your enthusiasm, energy and positive attitude - along with your careful consideration of our emotional investment and stress - was very comforting. You've been especially helpful to Geoff who wasn't quite sure of sales procedures, but after just one meeting he felt completely at ease and sure that we were in the best hands. You were great at keeping us fully informed and up dated after every viewing and didn't scare us with all the backroom negotiations. ln the end achieved a splendid result. We are also grateful for your generous advice in helping us with the purchase of the property in Ulladulla. That advice helped us get the property we wanted at the right price. It goes without saying we would recommend you to anyone who is either buying or selling a home. ln a world of too many average practitioners you stand out as a consummate professional.
