John made what is normally a stressful process a relaxed enjoyable process

John provided a good market appraisal and gave me confidence that only minor touch ups would be needed to market the property. John explained the process in simple detail and the options that may be required to achieve the sale at the best price. John also kept me advised during the auction and made suggestions on how to achieve the best price. I would have no hesitation in recommending John to family and friends to sell their property.

Just the Best! Professional, knowledgeable and top-notch communication with fantastic result.

John and his team are absolutely amazing. He took us through every step of the selling process of our home. He would proactively provide regular information, which made us feel like we were walking through this process with eyes wide open. We would have been lost without him. He will forever be the person we recommend for anyone looking to sell their home. We were blown away by the personal service and got an outstanding price for our property. His promptness, knowledge of the market, strategic mindset, kindness, good energy made a sale process simple. We couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you!

Outstanding

John and his team, Karl and Hannah, at First National Hills Direct were very professional in every aspect of the sale of our property. They were up to date with the market in our area and kept us informed in every step of the sale process. They communicated well with us and led us through an auction process and then through a private treaty sale. We had complete faith in John through his vast experience and judgement in every step of the sale. It was a pleasure to work with John and his team and we can highly recommend his services to anyone looking to sell a property.

5-star positive experience!

New to the property market, I was wary of real estate agents, knowing that they are working for the vendor, not the buyer. However, this was not my experience at all with Karl and his team. I felt respected and met with honesty at each step of the purchasing process - from initial inquiries about the property, through to the offer and actual purchase. The communication was always clear and professional and any queries I had were answered promptly. Karl always kept me in the loop, which was much appreciated.
