The reason we chose Luke was because of his authenticity, and because he has been brave enough to go out on his own and carve his own path. He isn't your typical estate agent. For one, he doesn't wear the flash suit, drive a BMW or embellish the truth! What he does do, however, is be straight with you. He has integrity, charisma, is direct and seeks to foster a positive relationship between the seller and the buyer. Negotiation doesn't always have to be hostile, and Luke's relationship-based approach to real estate filled us with confidence. Having worked with him on a purchase and subsequent sale, we have been impressed by Luke's depth of knowledge, patience and calmness throughout the whole process. In terms of the purchase, Luke rang us and knowing our wishlist (we had met with him prior to tell him what we were looking for), got us in for an inspection before it went on the market. We negotiated a price with the vendors, allowing us to secure the property off-market without it being listed. In terms of the sale, Luke arranged for a professional photographer and video, listed the property and throughout the process, ensured we were aware of any developments in terms of interest in the property. The online auction itself yielded a great result for us, and his follow-up has been fantastic. In short, if you are looking for a shark who will crawl over his grandmother to get a sale, then Luke is not your man. If however, you are looking for an honest, disarming and authentic real-estate agent, then you can't go wrong with Luke.
