It is with pleasure that we provide a review for Grant Skipsey, who recently arranged the sale of our property. We first had dealings with Grant when we bought our property many years ago. In the time in between, Grant has acquired a wealth of knowledge in the real estate industry. He clearly set out our options and gave us invaluable advice about the selling process. He also provided us with a realistic assessment of how the property was presented, and what we could expect to achieve at sale, which came to be very accurate. He gave us confidence in his ability to achieve a result through regular updates and consultation with potential purchasers. We have spoken with others who have dealt with Grant, and they agree with us, that we could not speak more highly of his commitment, knowledge and interest while managing to achieve the desired result.

Grant is certainly the professional. He is also very easy to communicate with, I had no problems with him at all. The presentation of the sale brochure in realestate.com was perfect. The house sold for near to my top price on the first showing. I would most certainly recommend him.

We could tell that Grant had been in real estate for a while (46 years), as it seemed he had a good feel for the market, giving us good advice and guidance. This being our first home, we were learning a lot at each house inspection, however, Grant made the process enjoyable and as stress free as possible. Couldn't thank him more!

Grant was amazing through the whole process and allowed me to view the property on short notice due to work. He spent a considerable amount of time walking both my partner and I through the property giving us things to look out for even if we were unsuccessful with this purchase. He also ensured that our purchase was as smooth as possible when dealing with the seller (deceased estate). Thank you so much Grant and the Team at First Ranges!

Unfortunately, Ranges First National rushed my property to market stating that we had to get to market before there was more competition. Subsequently, the professional photos weren't ready for the online launch and First National used some old photos I had taken with my iPhone 8 when I had previously asked them to manage the property as a rental. I believe this had a large impact on the attendance at the first few OFI's, and ultimately there was less buyers competing for my property. Grant is a nice enough guy and has been in Real Estate for a long time, easy to deal with, I just feel my campaign wasn't well managed and we should have achieved a much better result. At the instruction of Grant, I spent thousands of dollars in staging, and as much again in 'landscaping'. Definitely not worth the money considering the result. Ultimately, Grant reduced the price range of the property when he knew the final offer coming through from the buyer, as he sells his services based on achieving a sale price within the range. I wish Ranges First National all the best, but I wouldn't work with them to sell another property. And I definitely wouldn't sign with them to manage another investment property.

Grant attended our first meeting organized and well prepared presenting information on previous nearby relevant sales and expectations for our sale. We were also provided useful information on how to prepare and present the premises for sale along with feedback on our efforts. Throughout the sales process Grant kept us up to date with the results of all inspections and the profiles of any prospective purchasers. The result was a quick sale and a resulting price at the high end of the expected bracket. We found Grants approach both efficient and professional with great results.

We originally chose Grant to sell our home because we felt listen to and appreciated his ideas and feedback. That has continued through and beyond the sale of our home. We would definitely recommend Grant to anyone needing a knowledgeable agent in the Dandenong Ranges.

Grant was absolutely exceptional! He knew exactly what was needed to present the property, what the local market was doing, how to price the property to get multiple written offers, and sold our property for more than the top of the listing range. He spent hours doing extra showings and talking to potential buyers to get us the best price. I could not recommend Grant enough!!

Grant made buying a house very easy.

Hard you can find an agent like Grant he is a Gem.

Grant researchers the area your home is in and presents you with an informed brochure with what is in the area and realistic prices . Told house would sell in two weeks and bingo l would have no hesitation in recommending Grant Skipsey to anyone
