Working with Gillian Thorn of Blackshaw’s Realestate

Working with Gillian Thorn of Blackshaw’s Realestate

Dealing with a number of different realestate agents when buying and selling recently it was refreshing to do business with Gillian. I found her to be intelligent, diligent, helpful and real estate savvy. I would say she conducts herself with integrity and she is the perfect go between with vendor and buyer.

Fabulous down to earth agent

Gillian has been fantastic and very helpful as we navigate buying our first home, she have kept us informed throughout the process and worked tirelessly to answer our questions. Gillian is also a down to earth agent who actually cared about us and our mission to buy a property taking time to get to know us and check it throughout the process. Would definitely recommend!

Above and beyond

Above and beyond

Gillian went above and beyond to help us as we navigated purchasing our first home... even driving critical documents to our door when my husband came down with food poisoning. She was an effective communicator and liaison between parties and facilitated extra inspections when needed. We appreciated her warmth, initiative and professionalism.

Professional, knowledgeable and capable.

This is the second time that Gillian has sold a property for us. We specifically appointed her again because of her total professionalism and ability to maximise our property price through her analysis of the market, advice, attention to detail and then her reading of the potential buyers.

Comfortable experience

Comfortable experience

As buyers, our experience with Gillian was limited. However, Gillian was prompt in providing us with a draft of the contract to be used at the auction and courteous in showing us around the open house. Gillian was very professional at the auction in ensuring that the paperwork was all administered correctly and in introducing us to the vendors. Gillian followed up by liaising with both seller's and buyer's solicitors to ensure that our desire for an early settlement was achieved. In summary, Gillian was a pleasure to deal with and made the whole experience much more comfortable than it might otherwise have been.

Hardworking, professional and a pleasure to deal with

Gillian did her research and gave us great advice about how to get our property on the market and achieve the best price. She took the time to get to know what we needed and drew on her experience and networks to help us through the process - with advice on moving, preparing our property and finally achieving a successful auction. Gillian always kept us informed and worked extremely hard to ensure we were in the most competitive position. She is friendly, considerate and willing to go above and beyond. I would highly recommend Gillian to my family and friends who are looking for an agent.

Realistic and Diplomatic

We engaged Gillian after meeting her at a property for sale in our street. We were taken by her candour and her knowledge of the market in Gowrie. From the beginning, she gave us a realistic expectation of sale price. We have appreciated her level headedness and attention to detail in terms of keeping us informed of the number of visitors and their comments, the number of potential buyers and their level of interest. She handled all enquires diplomatically and provided us with frequent verbal and written updates of these. We, therefore, received a good indication of the buyers’ interest and possible price to be achieved for our house at auction. She also helped out with contacts of tradesmen for last minute repairs, ultimately leading to an optimal presentation of our property and a very successful auction. We wholeheartedly recommend Gillian as selling agent.

The perfect sale experience

The perfect sale experience

Gillian ensured that the sale of our property went more smoothly than I could have even imagined. From the first meeting, to the sale at auction and beyond her communication, attention to detail and readiness to assist with any questions was second to none. There was never a point at which I wondered what was happening or what the next steps would be. Working with Gillian through the sale process ensured that the property was presented at its best and made us confident that we would end with a successful auction outcome. We could not have chosen a better agent to sell our property and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

Sale of our much loved family home

Sale of our much loved family home

Gillian is fantastic at her job. Her knowledge of the market is spot on. She conducts herself with professionalism and yet lets her genuiness and integrity shine through. Gillian made the process of selling our home as easy as she could, providing updates regularly and offering any assistance she could.

Friendly and helpful

While Christine was the primary contact for the property we purchased, due to the busy nature of open homes at the time often keeping her occupied with other potential buyers, we probably had more interaction with Gillian, who manned the entrance checking people in. Gillian was always lovely, addressing our questions and concerns while also not falling into the trap many real estate agents do of saying whatever it takes to keep us interested. Her advice clearly came from experience and never felt disingenuous. It was largely thanks to that advice that we decided to register for, and eventually win, the auction. So thanks again Gillian and best of luck on future sales.
