Michael was consistently available to provide advice and responses to questions about the sales process from beginning to end. He worked very hard throughout the campaign to constantly show case the house and seek interest from a range of potential buyers. Michael maintained his professionalism and persevered in a changing environment which ended in a successful sales result and was highly appreciated by the vendor.

Thanks to Michael, we were delighted to secure our dream home. He’s genuine, charismatic and an excellent communicator and clearly wants the best for sellers and buyers. The team at HIVE really know how to do real estate well. Would highly recommend Michael and his team.

We recently had Michael Pead sell our second property, and once again, he delivered outstanding results. Michael is professional, highly communicative, and makes the entire process seamless. Having worked with him twice now, we can confidently say he is our go-to agent. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stress-free sale

Very easy to deal with Michael, no "over committing" and very pleasant to deal with. Would highly recommend him / HIVE.

Selling our home with Michael was a very positive experience from start to finish. What stood out most was how he communicated and connected with people throughout the entire process, while also delivering a result that exceeded our expectations. Michael is incredibly approachable and easy to deal with. From our first meeting, he made us feel comfortable and confident, and that same feeling carried through every interaction. His communication was clear, honest, and consistent, and he was always available to answer questions or provide guidance. What really sets him apart is his natural charisma and the way he engages with both buyers and sellers. He builds trust quickly, creates a relaxed and welcoming environment, and it’s clear he cares about people and wants the best outcome for everyone involved. Another standout was that Michael runs his own auctions, and he managed ours impressively. His calm, confident presence and ability to control the room gave us a lot of reassurance on the day. We also had a great experience working with his sales assistant Miranda, who was helpful, responsive, and a pleasure to deal with throughout. We always felt supported, informed, and in safe hands. We’re very grateful for the result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Michael to anyone looking to sell.

Michael from Hive was easy to deal with and answered all questions I would recommend Michael without hesitation

Michael was thorough in his research. His opinion of my property was evidence based and consistently throughout the process. He is considered, realistic and supportive. I felt no pressure from Michael to accept an outcome I was not comfortable about in uncertain times. He is a pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate in recommending Michael.

From his original assessment of the market and value of my townhouse to his careful judgement as the campaign developed, Michael kept us informed and sustained the interest of possible buyers until the successful sale day. With his advice and ability to provide the necessary tradespeople, styling and support, he transformed my experience of selling my home from very nervous to extremely delighted with the selling process and the sale price. Michael is a complete professional and our family rates his performance as a double gold medal.

Our experience selling our house with Michael as the lead agent was everything we had hoped for. He gave us excellent advice on the timing and manner of our sale, the styling of the property and minor repairs to the property. He also arranged everything that we needed to do to put the property on the market in a seamless manner. Michael astutely identified the features of the property to emphasise and his video for the property also struck exactly the right note. Most significantly Michael showed great dedication, skill and character in dealing with potential buyers, including in pre-auction negotiations after hours and over a weekend. He also kept us informed of developments in a thorough and regular manner. We are so grateful for the effort and skill Michael put into selling our property and would highly recommend him.

Working with Michael was an absolute pleasure. From the outset, he provided thoughtful advice and valuable insights on how to best present our townhouse to potential buyers. His guidance on styling and preparation made a real difference in showcasing the property at its best. Thanks to Michael’s expertise and approach, we achieved a sale price we were very happy with. We found him knowledgeable, proactive, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. We would gladly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a professional and reliable real estate agent.

I engaged Michael to market an investment property., He provided us with a timely appraisal and guided us well through the selling process. His knowledge of the market is excellent. It was very easy to engage with him and he kept bus fully informed at key stages of the process. He sold our property in a short timeframe and we are very pleased with the final outcome. Thank you Michael for your assistance.

A really friendly and reliable agent who I would happily use again. He’s definitely more of a caller than an email or text person, and I always found it best to just pick up the phone and speak to him directly. Buying a house can be a very stressful time, but he genuinely helped make the whole process feel much less stressful. Communication was always open and honest, and he came across as friendly, genuine, and easy to deal with throughout. He seems to genuinely care about both parties involved in the sale of a property. I would recommend Michael.
