Michael and his team were great to work with- very professional and transparent, offering great communication and reporting, and overall extremely helpful. The result achieved for my property sale exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend having Michael and his team manage the sale of your property.
I can't thank Michael and his amazing team enough for the campaign they ran for the sale of my apartment. They did an absolutely phenomenal and flawless job and worked incredibly hard with huge open houses every week. The sale price was beyond my expectations. I honestly didn’t expect it to go anywhere near $900,000 for a one bedroom. But to get $84K over my reserve, was absolutely incredible and I believe it is the highest selling one bedroom unit in the history of Newtown so far at $934K. It made selling what was an amazing unit all the more easier after my recent separation. Michael communicated twice weekly and was open and transparent throughout the process. When choosing the agent, all I did was research who was the best agent in Newtown and went with that. It paid off hugely for me. I also wanted the best auctioneer in Damien Cooley but I know all the work was done by Michael and his team at Raine and Horne to get that price and I am forever grateful and wouldn’t every hesitate to recommend his services to anyone in the future.
We found Michael’s team really helpful. They prepared a timetable for us to describe each step of the sales process. Communication was excellent both with direct phone calls and emails as well as a weekly sales progress report. Michael and his team understood the market we were operating in and were able to adjust our sales strategy as required to achieve a sale.
Michael and the team made what should have been a tough process seamless. they were available when needed and delivered what they promised. Michaels approach was professional and personal at the same time. Sold our property in record time and got a great price.
From the moment that I met Michael (along with Jennifer, his assistant) I felt that I had made the right decision to have Michael and his team sell both of my mum's properties. They made us feel comfortable and at ease - which is what I was looking for as this was quite a sentimental journey for my mum, having let go of 2 properties that she had held onto for nearly 40 years. Michael was engaging, encouraging and realistic as to where the market was during the campaign - he kept us in the loop throughout the whole time. It was an absolute pleasure to work with both Michael and Jennifer.
Michael did an excellent job and the team at Raine and Horne Newtown were very helpful with Viv in Marketing going above and beyond providing her own vase as part of the styling. Their work assisted greatly in making the whole process run more smoothly and easily.
When it came time to sell I knew I was going to appoint Michael Harris from Raine and Horne Newtown due to his strong market presence in Newtown, specifically the North Newtown pocket. He kept me thoroughly updated throughout the campaign and was honest and direct with me. We knew we were on track for a strong auction, however to exceed our reserve by $550,000 was an exceptional surprise and a testament to Michael’s expertise in the area and strong buyer connections he has built over the years. I could not be happier to have selected Michael Harris and his team at Raine and Horne Newtown. His knowledge of North Newtown was second to none and I am thrilled with the result and my choice of agent. Thank you Michael! Kath & Gerry
We engaged Michael on the advice of friends who recommended him based on an excellent result achieved by him in auctioning their home in December 2018. Michael provided a really expert and balanced approach for auctioning our house - no hyperbole, just clear facts with an excellent appreciation for where the market was and how best to engage interest with potential buyers. He and his helpful, courteous team kept us updated each day as to website viewing results and requests on contract information. His advice on pitch and timing of the campaign set the stage for an auction with elevated buyer interest.
I couldn’t be happier with my choice of Michael Harris to sell my Camperdown unit. His personal attention, professionalism and communication skills were outstanding and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to any prospective buyer/seller. Michael, together with his staff, made the whole process seamless. On my behalf and in an efficient and timely manner, Matthew Dunkerley arranged the services of the tradespersons to carry out any repairs or upgrades that were required. Vivienne Rockell was a constant source of support in her capacity as Marketing Manager.
Michael is very professional and has excellent communication skills. He was in touch with us regularly throughout the purchase process and kept us informed at each critical juncture. Michael was flexible and accommodating in terms of inspection times and after hours contact.
Michael and Melissa were extremely easy to work with. At the time I was working in Perth so much of the communication was from afar. It was also my first time selling a residence so I really appreciated their experience. I always got the impression that no question was too stupid and no problem too hard. The reports were consistent and detailed and the outcome was good. Thank you Michael and Melissa.
Michael and his team have been wonderful in securing a sale for my home in a challenging market. Through every step of the process, from organising tradespeople to prepare the house for sale until contracts were exchanged, they always acted with diligence, attention to detail, utmost professionalism and respect. Michael clearly knows the Newtown market but above all I think it's his people skills that make him an exceptional agent.
