We had a great experience selling our apartment with Ian and Stephen. Every step of the process was conducted with the highest level of professionalism and their customer service was exceptional. They were also very helpful when we were looking for our new place, by providing their expertise and advice along the way.
I would like to thank Ian and his team at Callagher R.E. for the extremely professional approach to the sale of my Unit. I was kept in the loop through the whole process and found Ian's market knowledge and communication skills were second to none.
After challenging my way through a jungle of egotistical self serving adjenda driven estate agents farsically dressed. I happened upon an openly genuine professional gentleman Ian Dawson. Selling my family home of 59 years was not an easy decision. My emotional attachment of a life time of memories in a much loved property. Ian's personal old school philosophy of respect, honesty and sensitivity meant that my needs were addressed promptly. Sale challenges resolved positively I was made to feel my input was important and my opinion valued. The sale plan flexible and adjusted to meet my needs. My observation of Ian Dawson in the open house inspections was that his genuine infectious positivity made him a gentleman whose company you seek, his opinion you value. What makes a difference to me is that Ian is a gentleman who prilritises you as a person whilst addressing the issues of your property to obtain the best outcome. To date now my property is sold I am still being supported by Ian and his proven professional team. I will always think of Ian as a kind, thoughtful professional who will selflessly help resolve any human conflict with a sense of humour and respect for mankind. Margaret Sloan highly recommends Ian Dawson, a stranger I now respect.
Ian Dawson and Stephen Mina were entrusted to sell our family home we've lived in for 24 years. Both Ian and Stephen were respectful of the attachment we have had to the home and walked us through all the steps until it was sold. Their feedback, market knowledge and regular communication to much of the stress out of the process and I have no hesitation recommending Ian Dawson and Stephen Mina if you are looking for a genuinely caring, positive and communicative agents that really know their stuff.

Ian kept us very well informed about the entire sale process from before we agreed for his team to sell our home until the moment the signed contract was brought personally to our door. He was always contactable and very resourceful, adapting all of the techniques his obvious wealth of experience has brought to him to be able to secure an exceptional sale.
Ian Dawson managed the sale of my unit with professionalism and efficiency. At all times Ian kept me up to date with proceedings, and gave me good advice. Ian procured an exceptionally quick sale and settlement, reducing the usual stress and waiting associated with property sales. Ian's communication and negotiation skills are of a high standard. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a residential property.
Ian impressed me right from the initial communication through to the signing of contracts. He demonstrated excellent market knowledge, communication and negotiation skills. Ian and his assistant, Stephen, went over and above, spending a lot of time with me at the initial meeting and clearly explaining all steps in the process of marketing and selling my property. This was important to me as I was unsure what to expect (not having sold a property before). Ian struck a good balance of offering me choices but also advising in which direction to move at the crucial sate of negotiations. The end result was a price that I was very happy with, very satisfied purchasers and vendor, and a streamlined and efficient process all the way through to the sale. The entire process took just one month from initial meeting to sale - a result that any vendor could not fail to be impressed by!
Ian breaks the mould of the stereotypical real estate agent. His "tell it like it is" attitude, sprinkled with his humour is refreshing. The market knowledge, renovation advice and guidance that Ian provided on our recent renovation and subsequent sale was priceless, he went above and beyond what would be expected of an agent to make it all happen. This resulted in an amazing sales result, well beyond our expectations. Looking forward to doing further business with him in the future.
I was introduced to Ian from a friends recommendation and oh boy, am I glad that I made contact!!! Ian got me a fantastic sales result. I secretly wanted to achieve a certain amount but realistically i knew it was way beyond what I would really get. Oh my God, was I wrong!! Ian actually got me MORE than my secret desired price!! I could not be anymore happier at this moment in my life. Thank you Ian.
We had several agents appraise our property in the lead up to selling but none were nearly as thorough, nor as optimistic in their expectations for sale price, as Ian was. He spent a considerable amount of time with us, advising us as to what to do to increase value & conversely, what not to bother doing. He named a sell price substantially above what anyone else had led us to expect, & whilst sceptical, we figured why not let him prove us wrong. He got exactly what he told us he would get, & he got it without even having to go to auction, saving us weeks in bridging finance. He delivered what he promised, & you can't do better than that.
could not ask for any more, very professiona,l would definitely recomend his services
Throughout the whole process of selling our investment property, We found Ian to be very professional and responsive, he helped us to achieve a fantastic result with his patience and knowledge.Also his associate Stephen was great and professional as well.We would highly recommend Ian to all vendors and investors!
