Thank you to Julie and Rob Warnes of Lane and Place for the personal attention provided throughout the sale and auction campaign for 1 Oxley Avenue, St Ives. After first meeting Julie and Rob I was confident they understood what we wanted to achieve as a result, and how we wanted to get there. Importantly, they engaged in regular and detailed discussions with us which gave us confidence in the process and relevant and current insight into the local real estate market. Julie and Rob provided us with professional recommendations and advice which ensured the property was at its best throughout the campaign. Their support went above and well beyond the activities of marketing and sales, and they gave the same care and attention to our property as they would have with their own. Further to that, Julie and Rob were always available, thoughtful and considerate throughout the process, including at some critical moments during the auction. Selling or buying a home can be such a stressful experience for both the vendor and the purchaser. Julie and Rob worked in front of and behind the scenes to ensure everything went smoothly. That made all the difference and led to a happy outcome for everyone. I highly recommend Lane and Place and Julie and Rob to any prospective vendor. Great people, great agents!

Rob and Julie have worked tirelessly for our project, they have done their absolutely best and have achieved amazing result, we are much appreciated and grateful for their contribution and involvement for this project and will not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you so much Rob and Julie!

Rob and Julie were fantastic to work with! Their professionalism, market knowledge, and clear communication made selling our home smooth and stress-free. They went above and beyond to present our property beautifully and achieved a great result. Highly recommend!

We sold our home through Lane and Place (Julie and Rob Warnes) in August 2025. Our property appealed to a niche market, which we knew would be a challenge. Julie and the team worked tirelessly to attract the right buyers, showcasing the home’s best features, and ensuring every lead was followed up. They approached each prospective buyer with genuine compassion for their lifestyles and situations, creating real connections that were a joy to witness. They kept us informed about the stories and needs of those viewing the property, which helped us make confident decisions right through to the final sale which was secured before auction. I couldn’t be happier with the wonderful family who purchased our home, and I’m thrilled knowing it will be filled with laughter and love for years to come. Our own circumstances also called for sensitivity, and Julie made sure everyone involved felt comfortable, respected, and fully informed. She balanced gentleness with professionalism, and I couldn’t be happier with the choice we made in selecting Julie at Lane and Place. Thank you, Julie.

We purchased a home pre-auction that Rob and Julie were selling in St Ives and I will definitely hire them if we are ever looking to sell: 1. They helped us fall in love with the home - and boy are we in love!! 2. They were very flexible on showing us the home to our family late at night which was very important to us as buyers and got us more emotionally invested 3. When times were stressful Rob was good at reminding us why we were doing the deal (and I'm so glad he did) and kept us in the process which ultimately led to a good outcome for his client but also we are so thankful for the outcome, we love the home and the street and the suburb and the fact that we can give our little girl a home :) ! 4. The team has been super responsive - quick responses across all hours of morning and night (we exchanged contracts at 10pm on a Friday night! 5. They are honest people which, from a buyers standpoint, made us feel more comfortable with the process and allowed us to be open about issues that were concerns for us and on the negotiation day the team really tried to help us get comfortable with our concerns 6. Genuinely just lovely people to deal with I feel that without their input we wouldn't be in the process of settling our forever home. For all their efforts and open, respectful engagement I would absolutely recommend them!

Thank you, Julie, and Rob, for your exceptional support in managing the lease and sale of our mum’s unit. It was an emotional time for my sister and I, and you both made the entire process smooth and stress-free with your excellent communication and professional yet personal approach. We would happily recommend your real estate services.

We had an exceptional experience selling our family home in St Ives with Rob and Julie Warnes. Initially we were unsure when Rob suggested selling off-market, but we were happy to be proved wrong! Rob achieved an outstanding result thanks to his professionalism, persistence, and strategic approach. His deep knowledge of the ever-changing market—particularly around the uncertainty of state planning rules—was invaluable. Rob guided us with honesty and clarity, always keeping us informed and confident in our decisions. His communication was prompt and transparent, and his negotiation skills were second to none. We’re very grateful for Rob’s expertise and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others. Julie and Rob are a fantastic team with complimentary skills. Julie’s attention to detail, organisational skills, and behind-the-scenes coordination ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish particularly when we were getting close to exchange. We wouldn’t use any one else if we were selling in St Ives.

We had a wonderful experience with Julie & Rob. They were super responsive, very patient, and easy to communicate with. They explained everything clearly and made us feel really supported throughout the whole process. Most importantly, they’re genuine and trustworthy — you can tell they truly care. We're also really thankful for their help in handling the negotiations. Couldn’t have asked for better agents!

We set ourselves a daunting task to sell our family home of 37 years, luckily we found Rob and Julie Warnes of Lane & Place who took on the project with understanding sincerity and above all honesty achieving a great result. Thank you Rob and Julie

We couldn’t be more thankful to Julie Warnes from Lane & Place for the exceptional job she did in selling our property. In a rapidly changing market, Julie took the time to truly understand what we were hoping to achieve and tailored a strategy that balanced a great sale outcome with the needs of our tenants. Her communication, professionalism, and calm confidence made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We felt supported and informed at every stage — and we’re so grateful for Julie!

Rob and Julie Warnes did an amazing job selling our family home in St Ives. Their knowledge of the market is first class and when we had to relocate interstate at short notice, the service they provided when we were no longer living in our home, exceeded all our expectations. Not only did they assist with presenting our home, they also obtained quotes from contractors to ensure work was well-priced and completed professionally. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Rob and Julie Warnes.

We can’t recommend Rob and Julie enough. From start to finish, they made the process seamless with constant communication, attention to detail, and true dedication. Rob’s tireless work ethic ensured we were always informed and well-positioned, while Julie’s strategic insight and coordination behind the scenes kept everything running effortlessly. Trustworthy, responsive, and experienced, they gave us total confidence every step of the way—exactly the kind of agents every vendor hopes for.
