We have dealt with a few agents in the past few years. We found George to be absolutely fantastic and would score him 10/10. Whether buying or selling , we would recommend George in a heartbeat, very professional, knowledgable and has such a no nonsense style. He always answered our calls promptly during the negotiation process. Our solicitor also ranked him highly. An absolute pleasure to deal with!
George has integrity, professionalism, commitment and knowledge. He is passionate about his work, and honest as well. I would thoroughly recommend George to any prospective client that is looking into the market to buy or sell.
George, Andrew & the team at First National Newcastle City were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Very professional but also very personal and felt like I was speaking to friends. They know their stuff and the house sold for far more than I expected. Worth their weight in gold! Would highly recommend to anyone!
We recently purchased a property and sold a property with George and couldn't be happier. Very professional, understanding and knowledgeable of our needs and of the market. George and his team are top class and couldn't do enough for us especially with my elderly mother being European and hesitant in certain areas but the team made sure the process flowed and followed through to the end.
George and his team were professional, honest and effective in achieving a successful sale. The whole process was easy. We were very happy with the advice, marketing, sale strategy and communication throughout. We have used George before and will again! Thank you to George and his team.
My dealings with George have been very pleasant. I would recommend George and his team to others.
George and his team of agents, particularly Andrew and Renee, were wonderful to work with. Getting our house on the market was a breeze and we were kept abreast of developments regarding our house sale the whole time. Our home was listed with another agent for four months, which was a very stressful and emotional time. Within 10 days of signing on with George, our house was sold. George and the team restored our faith in real estate agents once more. Would have no hesitations in recommending George and the First National team. Sarah-Kate and Sean
I found George Rafty to be great agent with exceptional customer service. A first-rate communicator, a kind and thoughtful man with a great sense of humour and an extraordinary work ethic. George has extensive knowledge of the real estate market and he provided candid and honest feedback of what buyers are looking for and a realistic assessment of what to expect from the market. His personalised attention ensured that the open house ran smoothly and George helped guide me through the sale process, making suggestions on the best course of action. I would highly recommend George and would be happy to utilise his services in the future. Thank you. Deborah Pugh
George and his team were able to sell our property at a good price. They were easy to contact, efficient and you always feel your property is important to them. I would thoroughly recommend George and his team to anyone looking to sell their home.
As an interstate seller, I was seeking a reputable agent that I could trust to manage my sale with minimal worry. From early discussions I found George to be upfront and honest about the property and this transparent advice continued throughout the sale process. I adopted George's recommendations for the sale of the property and my expectations were exceeded in not only the results achieved, but also in the communication and professionalism of his team. I'd highly recommend speaking to George, I'm glad I did.
George and in fact the whole team at First Nation Newcastle provided the best experience I have had in selling a property. Their professionalism and knowledge of the current market was exceptional, their ability to listen to my thoughts, ideas and concerns and respond in a positive and co-operative way was something that greatly impressed me. I could not fault their communication skills. I was contacted every time they had an inspection (even though the unit was vacant) and they quickly kept me up to date after each time. The three open houses they conducted were like a well organised 'battle' plan. Access to the property isn't easy but several agents were 'on deck' to facilitate access and direct prospective buyers, as well as having another two agents within the apartment to answer questions and discuss the details of the property. Nothing was half hearted or left to chance. Their enthusiasm and belief in the property was also refreshing and appreciated: both of which translated into total commitment to achieve the best possible price and a stress free and straight forward experience for me. My heartfelt thanks and appreciation to George, Roger and Lilliana for everything they have done over the last month and for making this sale and experience 'easy'.
