Michael was fantastic. From the first time we met Michael we knew he was different (no offence to other agents!). He is genuine, down to earth and took great care to find the right balance between buyer and seller, a tough gig when ultimately you are representing the seller. I will definitely be recommending Michael to anyone looking to sell their home that I come across.

I purchased a property off Michael and he couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. As a first home buyer, making an offer and/or negotiating on a property can be stressful and scary, but not with Michael. He went out of his way to help where he could and ease the stress and fear. I also know other circumstances where he's gone out of his way to help other first home buyers which is above and beyond what anyone else offers. I would highly recommend Michael.

Thankyou Michael! We both felt extremely blessed to have been guided through what normally would be a stressful experience in the selling and purchasing of a home. However, with Michael's caring approach, professionalism, phenomenal communication and negotiating skills we were successful in the selling of our very loved family home we had lived in for 26 years. To then go on to purchase our dream home has been amazing! Thankyou! :)

I felt in very safe hands with Michael- he was very patient with all my questions as a first time seller and got me a result far beyond what I imagined

Michael was a great choice of real estate agent to sell my flat - I appreciated his enthusiasm for the 'project' and efforts to take the best photos as well as negotiate a good price. It was a teamwork approach and his flexibilty with time was appreciated. thanks Margaret

Having an agent when you are from interstate is a nerve wracking thing . Michael came highly recommended and didn't disappoint us. We developed a trust as he guided us through the auction process. We obtained a great price for our property!

We asked Michael to sell our home which was located outside his normal selling area, so it was a good test for this bright young and entusiastic man. He successfully engaged with Blackshaw senior colleagues to determine the market, however as a team they significantly over-estimated the projected sale price in relation to the amount finally agreed on the auction day. Michael's communication with us was excellent and the Blackshaws team did extremely well in publicizing the property leading up to the auction. It was unfortunate there was only one bidder on the day, for reasons not understood. However, while the sale price was below expectations, Michael and his team did produce a satisfactory outcome which was a record for the suburb. That price was negotiated mainly by Michael's agency principal, as was expected by us, so a little difficult to judge Michael's contribution in negotiations. I would use Michael again.

Michael's passion for real estate was evident from the moment we met him at an open house. When it came time to sell our own home, Michael was our first choice. Throughout the campaign, Michael's communication was first class and his enthusiasm and down to earth nature was greatly appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to use Michael on future sales!

Being a first time seller, I found the whole process depressing and exhausting and at times hard to understand. However Michael was a very patient and supportive agent and appeared to work very hard re advertising, exhibitions and keeping up moral.

We found Michael while trying secure a property at auction. While we missed out on the property, we were impressed with Michael's communication skills, his friendly disposition, and the fact that he was willing to go the extra mile for buyers. When it came time to sell our house we selected Michael because he gave the highest appraisal on our property, and the most competitive marketing and commission rates. Michael made the whole process of selling, from preparing the property for market, the marketing and auction day as easy as can be. In the end Michael achieved a price for our property which was well beyond our expectations ($41,000 over our reserve!). This result is a testament to Michael's communication skills and hard work throughout the marketing campaign. I cannot recommend Michael more highly if you are selling your house. He is the complete package.

I highly recommend Michael Pead if selling your property. Michael is an excellent communicator, with a well mannered style and not pushy in his approach. I felt listened to, but more importantly 'heard'. Michael accommodated the needs of my family, time frame required and followed through with commitments and regular updates. He presents confidently, professionally and always with a smile! I believe Michael is an asset to Blackshaw Real Estate, and the Woden/Weston Creek Team. Thanks Michael for a great campaign and successful Auction.
