A Truly Outstanding Real Estate Agent

A Truly Outstanding Real Estate Agent

Richard sold my investment property, and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. I live three hours away, and any time there was a quick job or task that Richard felt he could handle for me—he simply did it. That kind of initiative and helpfulness is rare. He always kept me informed, often calling to update me directly. I never realized how much I’d come to value something as simple as a phone call—until I saw how uncommon it really is. For example, a friend of mine is currently trying to enquire about a commercial property worth over $3 million. The agent she's dealing with refuses to return her calls and only responds via text. Sadly, it’s an exclusive listing, or she would have walked away already. That situation has given me an even greater appreciation for how Richard went above and beyond. He is incredibly personable, professional, and genuinely cares about his clients. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell property. You’ll be in excellent hands.

Richard was excellent in helping prepare our property for sale. He is very knowledgable in market conditions and was realistic in what price we could reach. It only took two days to sell and he kept us informed on enquiries and offers during that time. Will definitely use him again in the future.

Great agent

I hired Richard to sell my South Ripley home , and his vast knowledge and experience ensured it was highlighted in its best light for the 1st open house. He adopted a hands on approach, bringing a personal touch to the sale. Richard was always available to address my questions and concerns, and his tireless efforts led to 4 offers at the 1st open house. He negotiated the best possible outcome and I was thrilled to sell my home for the desired price. Throughout the process Richard demonstrated exceptional professionalism, communication and empathy. I highly recommend Richard to anyone seeking a real estate agent

Friendly and In Depth Advice

Richard went above and beyond to discuss with both of us all the necessary information needed for purchasing our first house. He was available whenever we required and went above and beyond to make sure that our purchase was a smooth event. Really appreciate everything Richard did even checking on the house after the cyclone to make sure everything was okay. Would highly recommend him very friendly and we have no complaints.

Absolute professional - seamless transaction

As a retired real estate agent, I was looking for an agent who I could trust and to give me the truth about my house with no real estate BS. I also wanted someone who understood, since I had a long-term tenant in my house (which R&H are managing and was vacating) to treat him with respect and empathy in the sale process. I simply wanted a quiet listing and no open houses (which would disturb him) and would have drawn a lot of lookers. We took his advice and agreed on a marketing package. The tenant was in the process of moving and so had everything everywhere in the rather large house so Richard decided to allocate a 1-hour window for 4 qualified groups to visit in 15 minute intervals so as to control the process and do a “one on one” with buyers. As I recall we had 3 verbal offers that day and had agreed on a price the day after – Sunday. (Richard worked tiredly on that day with the one couple) We did accept an offer the day after and one month later – (last week) we settled! Throughout the process Richard kept in constant touch with the buyers and walked them through the building inspection and finance stage. He took time to show empathy and visit the tenant and kept him informed of each process but more importantly kept in touch with me by SMS and phone as to what was happening. I must say, the whole process was as seamless as could be and also the background work done by the R&H admin staff and communication was impeccable! Richard went way above and beyond in looking after us and as such he deserves the highest of accolades for his professionalism and “no nonsense” attitude and achieving a record price. If I had another property for sale – Richard would be the man! Well done- you have made my wife and I very happy.

Prompt reply’s to correspondence. Knew the area.

Easy to talk too and genuinely wanted to help us out. Open and honest exchange of information as situations changed. Experience shows and also helped to put us in contact with some trades to help us do some work prior to moving in.

Professional. Thorough. Attentive.

Engaging with Richard throughout our purchase process has been seamless. As an interstate purchaser, Richard's attention to detail, responsiveness, and willingness to go above and beyond has been greatly appreciated. His local knowledge, network, and relationships with nearby tradespeople has been invaluable. Thank you Richard.
