Knowledgeable, responsive and patient.

Michael was very helpful with the purchasing process. He was able to answer all of our questions and got things happening very quickly. He was very knowledgeable about the local area and the specific development.

Professional, good communicator and great to work with

Michael stepped in at a pretty tricky point in the sale after things hadn’t worked out with my previous agent, and I’m really glad he did. He was professional, supportive and worked incredibly hard to get the sale across the line. He always kept me updated, communication was great, and I always felt like I knew where things stood. It wasn’t the easiest sale, but Michael and his team kept at it and ultimately got a really good result. I really appreciated all the work and support along the way and would definitely recommend Michael to anyone looking to sell.

Leading the team with integrity and enthusiasm.

Michael Poynting is a exceptional real estate agent with the ability to manage challenging situations and bring enthusiasm when needed. I am very happy with the overall process we entered into when selling a property recently. His communication skills and experience was encouraging and we all worked together as a team to get the sale. Michael took great care with us and the outcome was terrific, inspite of a sown turning market. His confidence and enthusiasm for our heritage house was perfect and he encouraged us without pushing, giving us the direction we needed. Thank you Michael for your support patience and professionalism. I would sell with Michael and his team again and recommend people in the innerwest of Sydney to seek him out.

Smooth, quick, and well-communicated sale

As the purchaser, I had a really positive experience with Michael throughout the sale. The process moved quickly and efficiently - from first viewing to a negotiated, accepted offer the next business day, which speaks to how organised and responsive he was in coordinating between all parties. I was kept updated at every stage, including through the cooling-off period. Overall, a smooth, quick, professional, and well-communicated sale from start to finish. Highly recommend!
