Excellent agent, excellent sales result

Excellent agent, excellent sales result

When looking to sell our flat, we looked at reviews of agents in our area (Northcote) and McGrath had the best reviews so we looked to them first and spoke with Michael. As first time home sellers, Michael carefully talked us through the whole process and supported us throughout the whole sale period. Michael was very knowledgeable about the types of buyers who would be attracted to our flat and offered suggestions for ways to present our flat to increase buyer interest. He kept us updated regularly via phone calls or text message and was always quick to respond to our queries. Michael worked incredibly hard to find the right buyer for our flat which got us a great price. Michael's knowledge, experience and guidance made the whole selling process a lot less stressful and we would highly recommend him to anyone.

Very communicative and professional agent

Michael was the agent for the home I recently bought. He went out of his way to arrange additional viewings of properties in the area so I could decide how to proceed. When I settled on my apartment, he explained next steps, including the auction process, very clearly, and was very responsive to my many questions. He continued to follow up after the purchase to make sure there were no hiccups moving in. If I decide to rent or sell, I'd be very happy to engage Michael's services.

Outstanding result from a very professional team

Michael and the team from McGrath Northcote were highly professional and brought a great deal of knowledge to the process of selling our house. Throughout each phase of the process we were well informed and felt in control as the campaign progressed. The result we achieved far exceeded our expectations, and we attribute this to their extensive knowledge of the local market. We highly recommend Michael and the team to anyone contemplating selling their house. We were certainly in good hands.

Michael is very attentive and professional

I bought my home and Michael was the sales agent. He looked after my needs even after the sale was done. His service is excellent. I can call n ask any information regarding my home n He attends to it immediately. He must be very good ( if you need to sell your property) I didn't experience that as I was the buyer, yet he was very helpful. Wish him the best for his future endeavours

Trustworthy and Honest

Selling my property was a stress free experience from start to finish thanks to Michael. He was professional and calm and gave me regular updates and communication. He is very experienced and understands the market. He worked diligently on my campaign and I was very confident he was going to achieve the result I wanted. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Michael is a man of remarkable character, and was right on top of everything, communicating constantly with me, and handling every issue with great professionalism. I really can't imagine a better treatment than he provided, with a great outcome.

Great advice great result

Great advice great result

We took Michael's advice and the result was a sale price well beyond our reserve and expectations. His advice when we first met was to have the property vacated and styled. Michael arranged all this for us in addition to some minor improvements. The stylist did a wonderful job and the property looked fresh and appealing. From then on Michael really excelled by keeping us informed after every inspection and in negotiating with buyers. The final result being a sale almost $80000 more than what our reserve was. We could not have been happier with the result and would recommend Michael to anyone seeking to sell a property.

Michael took care of everything

Michael took care of everything

I was selling my Fairfield property remotely (in fact I had not even visited the property in >5y), and relied on Michael's experience and advice. From the advertising/marketing campaign, to renting furniture so it presented appropriately, I was guided by Michael. In the week before auction it was clear that we would have multiple interested parties, and I again left it completely to Michael to manage each and decide the best course of action. End result was a sale prior to auction and a price beyond my expectation. A very happy vendor.

Fantastic Sales Experience! Exceeded All Expectations!

Fantastic Sales Experience! Exceeded All Expectations!

From the initial meeting he instilled trust and integrity as he was very honest in what I could expect from the sale.While other agents promised the world, Michael spoke about the reality of the market, he was always transparent with this process. Michael was involved in every step of the process, from the initial inspection, arranging quotes, engaging trades to complete works to freshen up the property and everything was completed on time. Michael helped with the styling, liaised with the stylist to discuss which options would work best to achieve optimal results and to capture what buyers are looking for.This insight was invaluable and he treated this sale like it was his own.The sales campaign was always communicated clearly, I knew when every inspection was taking place and what needed to be done. Michael went the extra mile on inspection days, always making sure my property looked its best, even pulling out weeds and cleaning areas to ensure that a buyer saw the home in pristine condition.I always received a phone call after each open for inspection, a detailed run through of how many people came, their feedback and any questions they had.Every person who attended an inspection received a phone call, to follow up on their visit and answer any questions they had.I always knew the auction day would be stressful but having Michael as my agent meant that I knew what to expect and having a well thought out plan meant that there were no surprises on the day.Not only was the process faultless for me, I also noted that Micheal treated each person he engaged with respectfully and answered every email and phone call.The real difference I saw was that he got to know people and their stories which I felt that prospective buyers really appreciated.I cannot fault the service that Michael provided and I would not hesitate to recommend him to other people who are looking for an agent.

Practical and up front.

Have sold two properties through Michael. He gives honest feedback and appraisals as well as pragmatic advice on how to help the sale. Feedback on inspections comes through quickly and he's very prompt on queries. Sold both times just above expectations. A nice change from the usual overblown sign-up technique and overly slick tactics others might use. A solid professional.
