Capable and experienced salesman

Have known Jim for many years and that he is a well respected real estate agent within our local area. he lives in our area part of the week so knows the local scene well. His approach is very professional and had all recent sales etc on hand on our first meet and took time to explain the documents. Knowing that the market has dropped he did all he could to obtain the best price and condition of sale for our property. Our price point is in the higher bracket so buyers are not too common however he worked hard on what offers he had. The photography and advertising booklet was excellent and on each open home he was there well before the time and was ready to receive prospective buyers from the minute the door was open. I congratulate Jim on his sincere efforts and would recommend him as your real estate salesman.

Professional, hard working and thorough.

Jim sold my mother’s house and achieved a result well beyond our expectations. His professionalism and attention to detail were second to none. He provided clear and accurate advice and involved himself in every aspect of the preparation and sale process which made the whole process so much easier.

Fantastic service and assistance

We can't recommend Jim highly enough, he has been thoroughly professional, honest, polite and generous throughout the whole process and beyond. He has gone out of this way to assist even after the sale. He has even been feeding our chooks between settlement and when we get down to the property. Jim offers old school professionalism that is very rare to find. If you have a house to sell, engage Jim's services, you will not be disappointed.

House Sale Number 15

After buying and selling property for 40 years I have never encountered a more professional Agent than Jim Playstead. He is extremely knowledgeable regarding market trends and his negotiation skills are outstanding. His integrity is without doubt beyond reproach. Always punctual and reliable, no request was too difficult for him. In spite of the complications regarding the sale everything went like clockwork thanks to Jim. I could not recommend Jim Playstead more highly.
