Michael has sold 2 properties for us now and we definitely highly recommend him. Clear communication and great negotiating at Auction with the team, we appreciated his insights throughout the process. Both Michael and his team were very proactive and thank him for the result.
Michael has sold our house with a great result even during difficult times of Covid. He has shown a tremendous effort during the sales campaign and his experience in this field is obvious. Constantly keeping us updated and well informed he made us feel very comfortable during the whole progress. I can highly recommend Michael and thank him and his team.
We engaged Michael to sell our house as his knowledge of the market was spot on. Michael was present at every open for inspection and we had a full report of each person who went through and even took a contract. We had great turn out for every open a lot was due to the marketing Michael put behind the scenes. House sold with great ease and no stress.
We first met Michael Montano 10 or 12 years ago when looking to buy a house in Annandale. From the buyer's perspective, Michael was always friendly and informative, with the right amount of "push". As it turned out, we didn't buy from Michael, but did remember him as a good person and a good Agent. As such, in early 2021, when planning to sell our property Michael was one of the first Agents we spoke to. We also spoke with another Agent or two, to assess our options, but in the end decided on Michael and we are glad we did. Which brings us to the Sale. Michael's friendly and approachable manner meant that there was no friction with the tenants when it came to opens (both scheduled and impromptu), as well as the other intrusions on their privacy for photographs, walk throughs for other staff and so on. During the Sale Campaign, Michael was always there for us to talk with and provided good feedback - written and verbal - from each inspection. In the end, we sold prior to auction, with Michael negotiating a price that was at the top end of our expectations and going beyond normal duty to deliver the signed contract late on the Friday night. Well done Michael. We recommend him to you all. Paul and Diana.
We've just had a really positive experience with Michael Montano in selling our property. Choosing an agent can be difficult given the competitive nature of the Inner West and many options available. Michael had stayed in touch with us since providing an appraisal 3+ years ago and was someone we invited to again appraise. We liked his passion and straightforward advice and with competitive rates for marketing and commission plus the availability of other clients as a ( verbal ) reference, we felt comfortable in trusting Michael with our property sale. Michael seemed to have a strong connection with the buyers, he stayed very close to the most interested parties whilst continuing to explore fresh enquiries and endeavouring to remain in contact with others to verify their interest in the property. Michael was very responsive including outside of normal hours and accessible which as a vendor is extremely important to stay current with the marketing and feedback process. We didn't need to have extensive commercial staging as Michael and Michaela were able to advise on how to best prepare our property using existing pieces of furniture and art, suggesting hacks to complete the look within our budget. Michael was also able to connect us to a selection of reliable trades to assist with some minor repairs before listing the property. This saved us the time in searching for an electrician. Michael's a well-connected agent and all bases were covered including his choice of photographer for the interior and exterior photos. Overall Michael and his team, looked after our sale professionally and secured a great sale price meeting expectations. He was confident in explaining the best strategy to follow when the campaign flipped to a pre-auction sale with buyers who were ready to present early offers. We would have no hesitation in recommending Michael as an agent to sell your property in the Petersham / Inner West area.
I had an investment property in Sydney's inner west, occupied by tenants since the early 2000's, that I needed to sell. Only problem was, I was in Victoria, under COVID lockdown, so couldn't visit the property and hadn't seen it for over a year. It needed annual maintenance and a freshen up for sale, and my micromanaging was going to have to take a back seat. It is an unusual property in having almost all of its traditional Victorian features preserved - so it meant a lot to me. Michael's team visited the property several times, discussed their thoughts, and got some costings before proposing a tidy up and and sale package. Michael provided an estimate of what he thought the sale could bring, as well as a formal quote for their services. His team found me a conveyancer and tradespeople to do the work, providing quotes in advance and checking the work afterwards. The plan was to have four weeks on the market, ending in an auction. The house was open several days/week and Michael often revisited it with interested prospective purchases. After each opening, Michael called me to update me on buyers' impressions and opinions. About a week before the auction was planned, Michael had three - perhaps four people interested, and we decided to see if a satisfactory price could be decided prior to auction. Two days later, we exchanged contracts. The sale prove was within 2% of Michael's original estimate. It was an extraordinary job given the restrictions at the time.
He answered any questions I had and was incredibly easy to deal with. I am very happy dealing with Michael.
Michael has sold 3 properties for us now and we definitely highly recommend him. Clear communication and great negotiating at Auction with the team, we appreciated his insights throughout the process. Both Michael and his team were very proactive and thank him for the result.

We would like to congratulate Michael and his team on achieving a great result. He worked relentlessly throughout the campaign and kept us well informed during the process. He was professional, polite and approachable and a pleasure to deal with. We would not hesitate to work with Michael again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their property.
