Max is a hard worker and did a fantastic job in getting fantastic results! He really got to understand our needs, ran a fantastic marketing campaign and was incredibly transparent with all communication. Max is our Man and the best in the Oakleigh/Oakleigh South area.
Max has been very pleasant, approachable and knowledgeable. The follow up and successful sale after the auction date was a celebration as the market was certainly on a downturn. Max got us a price that we were very hapy with.
This is the 3rd time i have been a client of Max and no doubts as a vendor selling in a down market with largest decline in nearly 30yrs, i had been frustrated at times, especially when no bids at auction in Dec! Max remained calm, understanding and strategic with plenty of tenacity to deliver a positive result. I was particularly impressed with how he refreshed the campaign into private sale and conducted a number of private inspections, one on Christmas day! His hardwork finally paid off when i received an offer above current market value just before 2018 came to a close! I cannot thank him enough to stand by me and delivered a great result. When time is tough Max got tougher! Iam more than happy to speak to any prospective buyers/vendors about my experiences with Max.
We recommend Max's professional, personable and honest approach. We sold in a time whereby the housing market took a downturn due to pricing corrections and banking royal commission impact. Max was respectful and considerate (as we have a young family) and with ensuring qualified buyers would come through in any private inspection. He was a persistent negotiator and got us the result in the end.
Our/Max's campaign was complicated by the first big downwards correction in the market in some time, and the Banking Royal Commission, which led to a much longer campaign than initially thought. To Max's credit he stuck by us, and us by him (and I reckon he has learnt like most agents that they really have to earn their commission now) to eventually sell our property for a very reasonable price given the falling market. There are still plenty of O'Brien (Max) boards going up in Oakleigh South so obviously he is doing something right. Give Max a go...
From start to finish in all areas Max has been outstandingly helpful, friendly, honest, and professional. I have no reserve on advising Max to other friends and family when it comes to property. In a market that has lately been very saturated Max was confident, it then put myself at ease knowing that it was in excellent hands. Job well done, one word to describe Max at his job, 'SUPERLATIVE'
Max was more than efficient, even though he thought our expectations were too high in the current market he supported our stubbornness and did not waiver from our goal. Ferrying prospective buyers to other properties in the area for comparison, bringing them back here with a building inspector and a renovating expert was a brilliant move! We're well impressed that we don't have to go through the expected 6 week campaign and are over the moon we got the price we wanted, well done Max - and thank you!
We were super impressed with Max and his team. His knowledge of the local market was spot on and he really understood our property and who it appealed to, which resulted in numerous bidders at the auction in an otherwise quiet market. His marketing strategies were first rate (hello prosecco van!) and best of all was his straightforward, clear communication with us every step of the way. Thanks to Max and his team for an outstanding result.
He is really great agent. Always try his best to explain the situation and the current market going. I definitely recommend Max to your next agent
Dealing with Max from the very outset we knew that with Max's enthusiasm we were in good hands. This sale of my 90yr. old mother's unit was emotionally difficult for her as she had lived there for 47 years. Max and his team treated her with the utmost respect and courtesy and made the whole campaign enjoyable for all of us. I cannot speak more highly of Max, James, Stavros the auctioneer, Darren and Julia. A heartfelt thanks again to the team at OBriens Oakleigh.
We sold our house with Max and we couldn’t be happier! We began our journey sceptical of the estate agent profession due to past negative interactions but Max made a process that we were dreading smooth, simple and educational. Our house was on the market for less that 14 days before we sold, we had 4 offers and we sold for over our asking price... what more could you want?! Allow Max to sell your home and you won’t be disappointed, our result is testament to that!!
Max went above and beyond all expectations, Delightful to work and got a great result Couldn’t fault him and would recommend to anyone.
