Persevered in a long negotiation with an elderly seller who kept changing the goalposts. This is the second purchase we have made through the Lewtas brothers.

Have been dealing with Ian Lewtas and Kellie Saddington for the last couple of years looking for just the right place in Anglesea. Overall the entire episode was as painless as one could wish it to be... informative, good communication, knowledge of council requirements and sourcing of experts to attend to specific requests. We are very happy purchasers and have NO hesitation in recommending Ian, Kellie and Great Ocean Road Real Estate to anyone and would be happy to use them again!
Although acting for the vendor, we appreciated Ian's honesty and integrity in his approach to selling the property we ended up purchasing; negotiations between ourselves and the vendors were handled professionally and in a timely manner and the sale and purchase was a satisfactory result for ourselves and, I'm sure, for the vendors. I wouldn't have any hesitation in using Great Ocean Road Real Estate, and Ian Lewtas specifically, if the need arose in the future; and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to friends and acquaintances, again if the need arose.
Thank you for all your help and excellent communication
Ian Lewtas worked hard to sell our house for us, which he did successfully, and was always helpful, courteous and available. I have no hesitation in recommending him and his team if you are looking to sell your house in the Anglesea area.
Very happy with Ian Lewtas and the experience selling our Anglesea property with him. It did take some time being a beachside property and it is not like selling a city property that starts and ends in 4 weeks! You need to understand that. Ian was fantastic. One of our major appliances broke down during the selling period and Ian was amazing. He happened to know someone in the area that had a spare one so he picked it up, took the old one away and then moved the loaned one into place so that the inspections could go ahead uninterrupted! Cant ask for better than that. Ian can cope with any thing that is sprung upon him and all with no fuss! He always acted with integrity. Markets dictate the prices, particularly with beachside properties so we didn't really have any of those awkward conversations about expectations or unreal expectations. I'd highly recommend Ian as a real estate agent.
Over the years I have bought and sold all my properties through Ian, always reliable, honest, sincere, and has looked after me very well, thank you Ian.
We were fortunate to be dealing with Ian when we found our dream holiday/retirement home in Anglesea. Ian knew the area and the property well. We were able to make an offer that we believed was fair and would be presented to the vendor as a fair and serious offer. There was no mucking around, Ian presented the offer, which was accepted the same day and the news of such delivered back to us immediately. Settlement went smoothly and there were no surprises along the way or afterwards (apart from the thoughtful welcome to your new home gift). From the buyers perspective, we couldn't be happier.
