My wife and I have dealt with a number of real estate agents in the past, Mario Sanfrancesco has been by far the best agent. Mario has a strong relational quality, and genuinely has the best interests of the vendor in mind at all times. He leads a very professional team at Blackshaw Manuka, all of whom were a pleasure to deal with and are meticulous with their work. Communication is always clear and timely. Mario looked after us extremely well, and worked hard to come up with a great result on auction day. We unreservedly recommend Mario and his team.

Mario and Fiona made the sale of my house easy and stress free. Mario’s valuation was realistic. He kept me well informed with feedback from the open house inspections. Fiona was very helpful with her advice about decluttering, cleaning and styling.

I recently had the pleasure of purchasing my next home through Mario Sanfrancesco at Blackshaw Manuka, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very beginning, Mario was incredibly professional, approachable, and dedicated to ensuring I found the perfect property. He took the time to understand my needs and provided thoughtful advice throughout the entire process. What truly set Mario apart was his exceptional communication. He was always available to answer questions, offer updates, and guide me through the sometimes overwhelming process of buying a home. His knowledge of the local market is second to none, and I felt confident in every decision I made with his guidance. Additionally, Mario’s negotiation skills were top-notch. He worked tirelessly to ensure I got the best deal possible, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I truly felt that Mario was looking out for my best interests every step of the way. If you're in the market for a property, I would highly recommend reaching out to Mario Sanfrancesco at Blackshaw Manuka. His commitment, expertise, and customer-first attitude will make your experience an absolute pleasure! Thank you, Mario, for helping us find the perfect home!

Mario and Fiona together and separately handled the transaction in a professional and thoughtful manner to achieve an outstanding result for both parties. I was extremely grateful that Mario was able to negotiate a sale prior to auction. Very happy in my new digs.

Team Sanfrancesco are amazing. Their knowledge of the market and what is required to sell your home/property is second to none. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

We chose Mario based on his extensive local knowledge, reputation and our knowledge of the properties he had sold previously in our local area. The experience from start to finish with Mario and the team has been efficient and well organised with great communication at every stage. Our auction was successful and with an outcome aligned to current market conditions. We’d use Mario again to buy or sell a property. Recommend!

Mario and his team were beyond helpful and professional throughout each step of the sale process. He was very attentive and responsive throughout the whole campaign. He has created a personal experience which helped relieve any stress throughout. His knowledge and experience was the key to obtaining a phenomenal result in the sale.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Mario, Will and their lovely team to sell our investment property, and couldn’t be happier with the experience.

The entire team is delightful to deal with - professional, approachable, and dedicated to achieving great results.

Mario and his Team understood the current market conditions and lead me well through the whole sale process. He has great knowledge of the current buyers in that market and the properties we were competing against. If you are selling or looking to buy within and around Forrest, you would be very wise to seek Mario's advice

From the moment we first interacted with Mario at the appraisal appointment we were suitably impressed. His knowledge and understanding of the market and area was exceptional. Both Mario and Fiona kept in regular contact with us throughout the campaign, providing advice on styling, property presentation, and keeping us up to date on key parts of the process. Furthermore, their professionalism, level of service and genuine personalities made us feel we were in safe hands. We would use Mario and Fiona again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend them.

Mario, Andrew and team devised a comprehensive, efficient and well planned campaign for the sale of a property that although very attractive had many difficulties that needed to worked through. Their performance resulted in an outcome that was satisfactory to both the vendor and the purchaser.

In a challenging market an experienced agent with excellent market knowledge and negotiation skills supported by a great team is what you need. Mario and his team tick all the boxes. Thank you.
