I don't like selling, I guess nobody does. But the whole process was made relatively easy by RICHARD BARKER of the Professionals. He was very enthusiastic, and followed up all communication with potential buyers. He was extremely driven throughout the whole process, which allowed me to relax and simple present property to the best of my ability. I would highly recommend Richard. His character, experience and general demeanour was very pleasing to me.

I recently sold a property in Broadway Elwood through estate agents Whiting and Co Professionals using the service or Richard Baker who was employed by the mentioned office. As I was residing in country South Australia it was important for me to find someone local, who was very hands on and could give me good advice with excellent communication skills. I also was in need of trust and honesty in all sale discussions in particularly with discussions held with tenants occupying the said property. I would thoroughly recommend Richard Baker and Whiting and Co Professionals for all the the skills of honesty, integrity, communication and local market knowledge. I would not hesitate to use Richard Baker and Whiting and Co Professionals for future real estate sales and purchasing. Sincerely Yours Colin Porter

We recently purchased a property in ELWOOD that was marketed by Richard Barker at Whiting & Co . Richard was also the auctioneer on the day . We found that Richard was the most honest and direct agent to deal with and at the open for inspections, this was obvious with every prospective purchaser . Richard could not have been more obliging in the lead up to the auction . We have bought and sold 4 properties in the past , through different agencies , all at auction , but this was by far the most direct and straight forward purchase . While achieving an excellent result for the vendor , we felt that Richard was very aware of our position as a prospective purchaser and sought to do his very best for both sides . We are delighted to be moving in to our new property in Elwood and we would not hesitate recommend Richard to manage the sale of any property in the Bayside area . The outstanding feature would have to be his care and his honesty . We wish Richard continued success .

Really pleased with the service you provided.

I found Richard to be a patient highly presentable person who, at all times, kept me fully informed of the progress of the sale. I was aware that the unit was not in the best of condition and it was a difficult market for my type of unit. However, Richard assured me that he had clients who could be interested. I expected the property to be on the market for some time but to our surprise it was sold relatively quickly at the high end of the price range he predicted. I would certainly use Richard again for any future property sales and can highly recommend Whiting and co. and Richard to any prospective sellers. .

Richard Barker was great to work with when purchasing my apartment. I found him to be genuine, patient, prompt, flexible and helpful during the purchase and afterwards. He should definitely become #1 Agent in the area!!

Richard helped me make the best decision in regards to selling my property. He made every effort to be so supportive to me knowing that this would have been a stressful time in selling my property. I have no hesitation in recommending Richard as been one of the best real estate agents in Victoria.

Richard is the only sales agent you need to get the job done. He takes the time to understand your needs. Knows the market well and very knowlageble what works. Honest about what is achievable and ready to work hard for you. He is very professional and always keeping you informed at every stage of the sale process. I could not expect more! Thank you for a easy and stress free experience.

Richard was upfront, open and honest from the first time I viewed the property through to the purchase. This isn't always the case when dealing with real estate agents so it was refreshing to deal with him. I felt the transaction and negotiations went smoothly and his professionalism, which included a written letter which he sent to me during the proceedings, clearly outlining the negotiations was very professional. I would highly recommend him.

We really weren't sure if it was the right time to sell. Suffice to say, once we spoke to Richard and he provided us with details of similar sales in the area, we decided to take the risk. Not only were we kept up to date with all the interest in our property week after week, we went to auction knowing that we would get the best possible outcome. And we were not disappointed. We sold for well over reserve! With Richard Barker, we were always in capable hands!.
