Michael and his team were exceptionally helpful in securing my property at Black Hill. Their transparency and expertise are unparalleled, and I would not hesitate to engage their services again for future property purchases.

Incredible Customer Service

Michael could not have been more helpful from the very beginning. Whether it was looking for suitable properties or checking in to see how I was going, he was there every step of the way. He offered amazing advice, sometimes going above and beyond the scope of what was asked of him, and ultimately found me my perfect match of properties. By far the most supportive and helpful real estate agent I talked to - could not recommend him more as someone to have in your corner.

Michael and Catharina from team Darken have successfully sold multiple properties for me over the years and this current sale was,as always, trouble free and professional process. In a challenging market Michael had the grit and determination to get the sale across the line, with home opens every weekend and professional advice regarding approach to sale we ended up with a very favourable result. I highly recommend Michael if you are looking to sell your property! Thankyou Michael and Catharina for everything you have done for us! 🙏🏼 Team Darken 🙌

Great experience, smooth sale.

I recently worked with Michael Darken on the sale of our Ballarat property. The appraisal was great, an honest view of what we could expect both in terms of value and the process. The process was very easy with Michael taking care of it all from start to finish. Michael answered all our questions promptly. I highly recommend Micheal to anyone looking to sell their property in Ballarat.

A proactive, great communicator made for a fantastic selling experience!

Having first met Michael when on the rental team, it’s been a great experience working with him again now he’s part of the selling team. As a first-time seller, Michael was able to talk me through the selling process, breaking it down to manageable steps, and outlining the options available to me. I felt very comfortable asking any and all questions, which were answered knowledgeably, and he was able to expand into other aspects I hadn’t considered. He allowed me to make decisions at my own pace and to only move forward when I was ready; I never felt rushed or any pressure. Michael has always been fantastic at keeping in contact with a kind, understanding, helpful and professional manner. His proactive approach to selling meant I was able to sell my home quickly as he’d negotiated offers better than I’d imagined (which met my needs and wasn’t purely focused on price). I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone thinking of selling their home!

Michael and his team were fantastic from our initial contact to settlement. He is proactive, friendly and made the entire process as smooth as possible. Michael was always responsive and helped us with all aspects, even connecting us to local trades. He ensured that we were comfortable every step of the way. We will definitely use Michael and his team again.

Honestly the easiest agent to work with, highly recommend!

Michael Darken at PRD Ballarat was professional, genuine, easy to talk to and went above and beyond. As first home buyers we were nervous and learning the process as we went along but having Michael answer our questions patiently, giving advice and recommendations made a huge difference. From when we first inspected the home to when we put the "Sold" sticker, Michael was helpful every step of the way. Really appreciate his work - the whole process would have been so much move difficult without his help. Thanks Michael, we will definitely be recommending you to all our friends!
