Matthew Smythe achieved a fantastic result for us in a very difficult market. Throughout the process he was an excellent communicator, talking with us after each showing and devising appropriate campaign and auction strategies to respond to the level and type of interest in our property. He was superbly backed up by his EA, Marilyn, who looked after all the styling and communication details.
I sold my Neutral Bay property during a period when the federal government's negative gearing and capital gains tax changes were actively taking steam out of the market. Buyer sentiment was cautious, and several agents I spoke with beforehand suggested the only realistic path forward was to discount the price significantly - an approach that would have cost me a substantial amount of money. Matthew and his team took a completely different path. Rather than defaulting to a discount-driven strategy, they worked hard to attract genuine, quality buyers and ran an auction campaign built on integrity and a clear-eyed read of the market. Throughout the process, they were always available to answer my questions and kept me reassured and informed, so I always felt on track toward a strong outcome. On top of this, Matthew negotiated a very competitive commission structure, which meant I didn't have to compromise on value to get an agent of this calibre working for me. The campaign was so effective that the property sold just days before the scheduled auction, at a fair and optimal price for all parties involved. I'd strongly recommend Matthew and his team to anyone selling a property on the Lower North Shore - especially in a market that demands real skill and integrity rather than a race to the bottom on price.
My husband and I were so lucky to work with Irene on our first home purchase. Her genuine kindness and openness made the process so much more enjoyable and stress free. She offered her advice along the way and we never felt in the dark. We hope other first home buyers can have the same memorable experience we did!
Matthew is an amazing agent. He has a passion for real estate and always positive, even in a difficult market. He has gone above and beyond our expectations and I would highly recommend him and the team.
Very timely communications from Harrison and each with relevant and candid new advice .
I met Harrison 12 months ago when I commenced my Real Estate journey. I was looking. at potential properties to purchase. I had my own property to sell. I had a number of agents who wanted to work with me. I chose Harrison because he maintained contact with me at the very early stages of the process. He was professional and I felt confident that he knew the market but more importantly that he understood that the process was overwhelming for me. Subsequent Renovation at our building for sale on hold a little longer than we expected, but we resumed the sale process and he did the best he could to get me a fair price I would recommend Harrison to anybody looking to sell Mags Woodburn
The agent was friendly and open. Like having a chat with an old mate. Very knowlegable too. Had all the facts on the apartment at his finger tips. Quick response to later questions, followed though beautifully.
Thank you, Matthew, for a job well done. Considering we are interstate, Matthew and his team arranged the sale, styling, viewings etc of our apartment in a completely efficient, professional and friendly way. We particularly appreciated the regular feedback. We can thoroughly recommend Matthew and Belle Property Neutral Bay to all those appreciating professional and friendly service.
The agent Matthew Smythe was most accommodating in allowing me and my associates private viewings of the property. He was helpful in providing all the information and enquiry I and others required in a timely and thorough manner
Matthew Smythe provided excellent service. He is very knowledgeable with good commercial advice.
