Once again, John went above and beyond with service whilst selling my home. John is an agent that I trust as his market knowledge is excellent and he communicated openly and honestly with me at all stages of my sale. He truly cares for his clients and nothing is too muxh trouble. It's this personal touch that sets him apart from other agents. I highly recommend John and his team.
It was wonderful to be dealing with Ben Ives for the purchase of our second property. Ben was prompt and thorough in all negotiations and understood our time frames very well. He was very accommodating working with us after hours to meet our availability. It is the second property that we have purchased from Ben and both dealing have been an absolute pleasure.
My husband and I have no problem in recommending Ben Ives from Elders Real estate. Our experience with Ben was altogether pleasing. He was very keen to keep us informed as we went on the journey of selling our home. His professional manner was only surpassed by his excellent communication skills. He worked very hard to help us achieve a sale. WE ARE SOLD.
We invited Ben to appraise our property as well as another agent. Ben's appraisal was way higher than the competing agent but Ben showed us evidence of what he had sold and felt confident he could achieve it based on his experience with buyers. We found this to be the defining difference that Ben brings. His knowledge of the real estate market was what he used to come up with a successful strategy to sell our house for tens of thousands more than the next agent could. Thanks Ben, We are definitely glad we chose you =) Jason & Sharon
John & Ben has been exceptional from the moment we first turned up to the open house. We liked the property and liked the agents. We had a contract within 24 hours of placing an offer. They gave some great renovation ideas too coming from a building & construction background! Thanks for making buying our home easy and always available for any questions. Cheer, Chari & Gowit.
John Jessop is tenacious. My property was a little complicated and yet John was able to get great interest and finally a sale. I will always recommend John as an agent. well done John.
Just stepping into the property market, this was my first home purchase. When asked what steps will I take next after seeing the property,....I didn't know. Organising an internal viewing of the property with John Jessop, steps were pointed out to me of the directions I could take. No pressures, good communication, and then on top of this, patients in giving me time to get things ready. From John's communication between the owner and myself, we both came to a good understanding of what price we are looking at, and how long it will take to get there. Everything is now done and in order. Thanks again John, John Rooney
When listing our second property with John a few months ago we had no doubt he would complete the sale swiftly and professionally! We highly recommend John and his amazing friendly team to sell your property. Thanks again John! Dennis and Grace
From the moment I arrived to view the property, John greeted me with a very warm welcome and ensured I had a brochure to help me view the property. John was happy to answer any questions I had at the time. John then arranged for me to take my wife to view the property later on that same day, allowing us more time to thoroughly inspect the property. Nothing was too much trouble from John and his team in the entire process of the purchase of our new home. We were kept up to date on every part of the purchase, which ensured everything went smoothly with no stress. John’s professional, honest and friendly approach has made buying our home a pleasure.
Joel Ruge was amazing in the process and John was helpful. The communication leading up to settlement could have been better in regards to the previous owner as it was quite frustrating having the owner occupy the home still after the settlement. This is more on the owner himself being unorganised and never allowing us to do a full pre settlement inspection. Still we find things in the home we have to get rid of ourselves. John tried to make it smoother but I feel that more pressure should have been put on the owner.
We had lived here for over 20 years so it was with some reservations that we made the move to downsize. John's previous experience with the local building industry and the fact that he lived close by gave us confidence that he understood the market and effective ways to promote the sale. We are very happy with the result and the way it was achieved. Thank you John Jessop
I was referred to Ben by my daughter who said he has been a pro-active agent in our area for many years. I found him to be be very professional and it was comforting dealing with a real estate expert. He had a realistic appraisal price for my property but came up with a strategy to achieve a higher price than market value. Ben's unique ideas brought in 5 Offers in the first 24hrs. Once the highest offer was negotiated, he then used his 'tradie' experience to help my buyer get past some of the issues that popped up during the building inspection. This sale was special for me as it was the family home where we raised our children but Ben's friendly and professional approach made it a successful closure to this chapter in our life. I'm glad I chose Ben and would definitely recommend anyone do the same. - Karen.
