All aspects of the process were handled in such a professional manner. From the preparation of the property all the way through to the final negotiations was superb. We are thrilled with the result.

Richard has excellent knowledge of the Sydney property market and uses this to assist in the selling of properties. His approachable and friendly professional nature is a one off in this industry. Richard deals with all prospective buyers personally and attends all opens himself. This means you get a personalised service, with one point of contact for both vendor and prospective buyers.

Richard made the whole process of selling my apartment very easy and straightforward! He went above and beyond in terms of making the place look and feel amazing. I would definitely recommend Richard!

Richard was a pleasure to deal with

We had the stressful task of selling a property, but luckily for us we found Richard Rawle from Residence. Richard is extremely professional and very knowledgeable about the market. Richard’s experience was invaluable to us and his calm manner and guidance throughout the sale was vital. Richard provided us with timely and detailed updates which put us at ease and we knew our home was in safe hands. Should we buy or sell in the future we wouldn’t hesitate to ask for Richard’s assistance.

From my very first conversation with Richard Rawle I connected with his ideas and communication style. Being aligned in values with business partners and even in transactional relationships to me, is one of the keys to optimal performance and success. Richard is a realtor who understands the market and equally, the importance of collecting and sharing details with all stakeholders. After every inspection, he gave me a snapshot of each party that had viewed the property and their feedback, all of which of course was very insightful. My home was styled for the sale by a professional design and furniture company, but even then Richard added his own objet d’art for the finishing touch to one of the rooms. The sales campaign lasted longer than what we had anticipated but at no time did I feel like Richard lost interest in achieving the best possible outcome. He kept up the momentum, maintained regular contact and gave me detailed updates throughout the campaign. Where I was unable to add my input, a friend stepped in and Richard, her and I worked as a team, seamlessly sharing information, ideas and legalities. I need to add a significant detail. Even though we have been ‘meeting’ for several months, I am yet to meet Richard in person. I am currently stuck overseas and have been unable to return home to Sydney for the past 8 months due to the Covid-19 restrictions. I can think of no better a testament of Richard’s capabilities and high professional standards, than me entrusting the sale of my home of 20 years and which I was very attached to, to his care and going through the whole selling process remotely and coming to the close of it, I’m happy with all aspects and the outcome.

Richards knowledge and experiences in the market far exceeded my expectations and achieved a very quick sale. His attention to detail in the marketing of my asset delivered a very professional advertising campaign to the right audience. His engaging manner to everyone, from the purchaser, solicitor and vendor is without question.

Our experience with Richard Rawle has been first rate. Here is an agent who has professionally and honestly guided us through the sale of our most important asset. Courteous prompt attention to questions, encouraging support with decisions and applied talent to negotiations have been the form. I would choose to go with Richard again should I decide to buy or sell in the future.

Richard Rawle at Residence is the consummate professional in real estate. I have dealt with him on a number of sales and purchases over a period of about ten years. What sets Richard apart from other realtors is a combination of key attributes: - honesty and frankness. Richard is not there to stroke your ego or tell you want you want to hear. It’s all about reality. - research. He delves into the overall economic landscape constantly, making himself aware of the mood on a global, national and local scale to read where prices and trends are heading; ignoring the stale distractions hyped by the media. - communication. Communication is everything for both the vendors and the purchasers - we want to know what’s going on, what’s really going on, in a timely manner. Richard understands that! - because he only takes on a small number of listings at any one time, you will be assured of concentrated attention to your specific deal. This method invariably results in a speedy, satisfying outcome for both vendors and purchasers - our time is treated with respect. - other professionals. Richard has developed a trusted network of other like-minded professionals who assist in providing services and advice to streamline the process.

My partner and I had a wonderful experience with Richard from the moment we met him, he is professional, knows the area well that we were wanting to buy and made the whole experience a pleasure. Kept us informed and took the stress out of it completely, even bought us flowers after we exchanged, a very nice touch. Highly recommend Richard Rawle? Sue

In the modern connected era of smartphones, tablets and the like, it is not always important to be the biggest agent to deliver the best results. I bought my Sydney CBD apartment from Richard and elected to have him sell our apartment some years later. Richard is a very professional and focused real estate agent who balances his objective with obtaining the best price for his vendor with the need to make the process easy and fair for all parties to ensure the sale does in fact take place. His market knowledge and advice is sound, but he also listens well and ensures he factors in all views and information into such advice. I have no hesitation in recommending Richard to anyone considering selling our buying premium property in the Inner Sydney area.

Richard's personal attention and dedication to his job was beyond expectation. His excellent commercial skills and complete professional approach made the whole process as easy as possible. All contributed to a great result on the sale of our property in Elizabeth Bay in just 3 weeks. We could not rate Richard high enough.
