Excellent service and genuine approach

I purchased my apartment from Michael Townsend 6 years ago. I noticed back then Michael was a quality person, an excellent communicator, with an authentic approach to what he did. I kept Michael in the loop with my changing life circumstances, and when it was time to sell, he jumped me through the hoops required to prepare for the sales campaign and eventual auction. I'm very thankful for the result, and to Michael and his team for their great work. All the very best.

Proactive Approach!

I must say, when I received the call from Cristina to advise me, her and Michael had found me a property that ticked every box on my list (I had emailed them a wish list) I was pleasantly surprised. Then once inspecting the property it was exactly what I had been searching 6 months for and they were both incredibly flexible with ensuring I was able to view the property twice in 1 day and put an offer in the following day. They went above and beyond to ensure this property would become my home and I was overwhelmed with the service they provided. The experience start to finish (even price negotiation) was professional and they both showed a level of commitment to me as a client and ensuring I found what I was looking for! I highly recommend them both, whether you are looking to sell your property, searching for a property or just enquiries, they are the agents to trust!

One of the Best

My rapport with Michael was great, we clicked straight away. He understood and complied with my wishes in relation to the sale. Michael achieved a result that was supposedly unachievable! I honestly hold him in the highest regard for his honesty work ethic and the quick sale that resulted in a fantastic price.

Amazing Work!

I can’t recommend Michael and Cristina highly enough. I needed to sell my mothers flat to pay for her nursing home, and quickly. Being a full time teacher at an intense school, it was an extremely stressful time. Michael and Cristina organised two quotes for me to clear the place, paint the walls, replace the carpet and bring in a styalist. They also organised a conveyancer as my one dropped out because it was ‘too hard’. This was done super fast, as they were always available during times that worked for me. Everything was done efficiently, and no question was too idiotic for them to answer. All their advice was excellent, and they were extremely tactical in everything they did. I got an excellent price for the flat and now my mum can afford an excellent nursing home. They are both a lovely and talented team that will work hard for you.

Honest and down to earth :-)

I've recently just purchased my first home/apartment and couldn't be more excited! Michael and Cristina were amazing from the first time I walked through the property. Michael was professional and very knowledgable. He was able to answer every question about the property and the area. (I had a lot being a first homebuyer!) Couldn't be happier with the result..I've been told the seller was happy too! Can't wait to move in to my new home :-)

Wonderful Agents Superb Result

From our very first meeting through to the sale of our property we could not have been happier with the services and expertise offered by Michael and Christina. Right from the start we knew we were in good hands with their knowledge of the overall market and potential buyers. Their advice and assistance on property presentation was invaluable. Their ongoing communication and reassurance throughout the sale period and after each open for inspection was amazing. The whole process from listing, to sale at auction could not have been been made easier for us. Their diligence in buyer follow up and intimate knowledge of the market produced an amazing result at auction. A huge thanks to both Michael and Christina AAA+

Agent review

I recently sold my apartment through McGrath agency, St Kilda, Victoria. My agent was Michael Townsend, ably assisted by Cristina Willis. Michael and Christina helped me through every part of the selling process, from assisting me with finding tradesmen and stylists and helping me decide what was and what wasn't necessary for me to spend money on, to explaining the auction process to me and alerting me to any decisions that may be necessary in that process. During the course of apartment inspections, Michael and Cristina worked tirelessly at developing relationships with interested parties and making them feel comfortable and well-informed regarding their potential purchase. Michael and Cristina are gentle and sensitive people; always available to answer my questions and always respectful of the enquiries of potential purchasers. Michael also has a cutting-edge knowledge of the real estate market and I would encourage anyone thinking of selling their property to engage Michael and Cristina.

Strong local market knowledge

Michael and Cristina provided everything we wanted in agents. At our introductory meeting they were completely aware of the market trends in our area and gave us very a honest and frank $ range of what we could expect for our apartment. They were realistic regarding time lines and kept us up to date with interest in the sales process every week. When it came to the negotiations when we received an offer, we felt they pushed our case as far as could whilst also being fair to the buyers. All in all, a great experience

Cristina & Michael are the best!

I was unsuccessful in purchasing this property, but the level of service and integrity they showed was above and beyond anything I've experienced in my 6 months of searching St Kilda property. Keep up the good work guys!!

Fantastic agent

It was a pleasure working with Michael in selling our apartment. His professionalism is a standout quality, along with his honest and genuine approach to selling real estate was really refreshing. Mcgraths is a modern outfit that make other agents look dated.
