I have just exchanged contracts to purchase a Newtown property through Michael. Throughout the inspection, inquiry and negotiation phases Michael was friendly, engaging, helpful and professional. A pleasure to deal with.

I found Michael Harris and the team at R & H to be efficient , dedicated, and always there to help and advice . I would highly recommend Raine & Horne Newtown.

Michael was always professional and personable, keeping me informed at every step of the way on how things were going with inspections, potential buyers' responses and comments. Both Michael and Melissa were excellent communicators with a responsible approach to keeping the me as the client informed, and providing helpful guidance when required. I would recommend Michael and the team to anyone wanting to sell. In this very difficult market - for vendors - it was good to know I had the best possible team working with me.

We've never sold a home before. Michael, Melissa, Matthew and Vivienne were able to guide us through the whole process in a most professional manner. They responded to our questions promptly, they laid out each of the steps clearly, and we finished with a great result. Of the whole team, it was Michael with whom we met and spoke most often. Michael has a detailed knowledge of the current local real estate market. But that is to be expected of all successful real estate agents. The point of difference and the reason we chose Michael was his integrity and his candour. Once we knew that Michael was speaking with honesty, then choosing him and his team was easy. Melissa introduced us to a number of tradespeople and other professionals, all of whom were exceptionally good to work with.

I am so glad I selected Michael Harris to handle the sale of this property. He was not pushy and had the kind of personality I knew would appeal to potential buyers. He was thoroughly professional, lived in the area, understood the market and knew how best to present the property. He kept me informed every step of the way and managed (and exceeded) ALL my expectations. His advice was extremely important to me. His colleague, Melissa Grose, personally managed the tasks of cleaning, refurbishment and presentation of the property. She helped me contain presentation costs and kept me informed as each trade completed its work. I have great respect for Michael and Melissa and have no hesitation in recommending them to vendors and buyers. A great experience in customer service!

Michael has excellent local knowledge and contacts. He is professional and works hard for his clients. Highly recommended.

I have always been very wary of real estate agents, and was concerned about who I would choose to sell my property. I am so glad I chose Michael Harris for the sale. From day one, Michael and his team were honest, easily contactable, and incredibly hardworking. Even though I was selling a small apartment, it was clear that Michael really valued my business, and worked incredibly hard to get me a good sale. I was always kept up to speed with property reports, and received regular emails and calls from Michael and his EA, Melissa. The level of communication from the team was outstanding. Michael’s negotiation skills are exemplary, and resulted in a sale which exceeded my expectations. Both Michael and Matthew, who assisted in the sale, were professional at the open house each week, and familiarised themselves really well with the apartment and the suburb. The marketing package Michael offered was definitely suitable to my needs. I loved the emphasis on social media advertising, and I believe that this contributed to such a great sale. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Michael and his team. Selling my apartment has been an easy and relaxing process, and I know that is due to the hard work and professionalism of Michael and his team. Outstanding!

Michael and his team walked me through the entire process; from arranging trades and staging services to get my property ready for sale, through to making me feel comfortable and confident with the market, auction and settlement process. Michael kept a perfect level of communication; and the entire team were friendly and an absolute pleasure to deal with. I couldn't have wished for a more seamless process - and I got a fantastic result!

Michael and his team kept us very well informed throughout the sale process. Every step of the way we felt that our interests were their number one priority and they really worked hard to achieve the best possible result.

During the whole process, I have only met Michael twice. He was quite pleasant overall. I was mainly in contact with Matthew throughout. I would say the whole process was not as pushy and annoying as some other agents. However there were times that I thought they pushed too much. Comparing with some agents I have dealt with in the past. I would recommend their service.

I found Michael and Matt to be credible and very clear and open communicators. They were a pleasure to deal with and made the whole process very unstressful.
