I couldn’t be happier with the result Nick helped to achieve when selling my Kingston property for a market record price. His manner is professional and approachable, and I didn’t doubt his or his team’s ability to get it done. Would recommend and would be mates!

I had a smooth and straightforward time with engaging with Purnell Real Estate for my purchase. From initial inspection to email queries to sale to contract exchange, Nick and the team were responsive to requests for more information and other arrangements, including on weekends. My purchase offer was quickly agreed to by the seller in part due to the team's quick work. Would be happy to deal with Purnell again either as buyer again or seller.

We recently sold an apartment in Canberra via Nick and his firm. He was always obliging and helpful during the sale process. He successfully identified buyers at an early stage so it was not necessary to go to advertising. That positive result appeared to result from deep local knowledge and experience. In the end a small number of people looked at the property so there was relatively little hassle for the existing occupants. The price received was very satisfactory. Overall we were very pleased with the service we received.

I can highly recommend Nick Purnell. His service is professional. He kept me well informed along the journey. No fuss and great advice and support. Nothing was too hard.

Nick was professional, responsive, frank and courteous. I found him honest and straightforward to deal with throughout.


Nick has been a part of a number of property sales and purchases over the years and has always provided a quick, responsive service. He has a keen knowledge of the Canberra property market.

Found Nick and his team very professional and polite in their advice and interactions. There was no playing games from his team.

Having talked to a few different agents regarding the sale of my Kingston apartment, I decided to choose Nick for a number of reasons. Firstly, he has an established understanding of the market in my property's area. Secondly, I found him to communicate in a genuine and consistent way. And thirdly, he was straight forward and open in his evaluations and updates throughout the process. I had a sense of being able to trust Nick and his agency, which was reinforced by how others in the industry spoke about him. Overall the experience has been a smooth one. I would happily recommend Nick as a sales agent.

Nick has helped me look for a place for over a year now. He has been so patience during my journey of buying a place, I have been greatly appreciative of his effort. When I did eventually find the right place for me and my family the process went really smoothly and Nick continues to be helpful and very supportive and efficient.

Nick and his team were incredible to work with. Purnell Real Estate advertised my property and got it under offer within 7 days whilst competing properties were on the market. Nick was very responsive to potential buyers and kept me in the loop the whole time. I would highly recommend Purnell Real Estate if you are looking to sell your property.
