Thorough, diligent, great communication, great results

Richard and Anthony have been a pleasure to work with this year. They sold six properties for me this year as part of a deceased estate. Richard was a regular great communicator by phone and email. He judged the reserves perfectly and achieved above reserve at each auction. His pre-sale reports were comprehensive and reflected the real interest in the properties. His administration of the sales was meticulous. I would thoroughly recommend him as an agent.

Could not be happier with Richard for all his assistance with selling my property. Richard assisted me with contacts for new flooring and staging and his recommendations were amazing. Every area for the sale was perfect from the Advertising to the Auction. Thank you Richard for making the Sale so easy on me.

You don’t sell a property everyday so you rely heavily on the advice and guidance of the agent you are working with In my case this entire process was exceptionally well handled and ended up having a result that exceeded my expectations It was certainly a combination of the marketing and communications approach and the way the property was presented that worked perfectly Getting the right agent who does not treat you as just another client is so important and in this case working with Richard and his team was the right decision

Experience, integrity, a cut above

This was my second property dealing with Richard. He successfully sold a North Melbourne flat for me around 9 years ago for what could only be described as a gob-smacking price. This time, working closely with him, I saw in addition to his vast market knowledge and skill as an auctioneer, a reliability, sincerity and decency which in my experience, is rare. Selling at auction during a market slump, and being the sole vendor was nerve-racking, but I trusted Richard's experience and advice 100% and was rewarded by a result far exceeding my expectations.

Richard was very proffessional to deal with. We had complicated circumstances and he managed them very efficiently. We would highly recommend him.

Excellent Service

Richard, and his colleague, ran a hugely successful auction campaign in a tough market. Richard, particularly, is to be commended for his extensive knowledge of the market, his understanding of the very fluid market dynamics, and his superb performance in front of the five very active bidders on the day. We were very happy with the price and his briefing to us on the whole auction process helped reduce our anxiety. He was a pleasure with which to work.

A positive result when selling our Investment property through WB Simpson & Son

A positive result when selling our Investment property through WB Simpson & Son

We found ourselves in a difficult selling environment post Covid with the market coming off the boil, a Federal Election and rising interest rates. Richard Simpson and his team were the ideal agents for us with their sound knowledge of the local market and plenty of experience. They marketed the property well and we worked with their recommended property stylists who had the apartment looking its absolute best. Over the campaign period we were in regular contact as they kept us posted on open for inspections and interest in the apartment. Based on their market knowledge we adjusted our asking price which was the key to the eventual sale. We were very happy with the result and the 30 - day settlement period. We would recommend Richard to anyone looking to sell in the inner West Melbourne area.

Can I give MORE than 5 stars?

Can I give MORE than 5 stars?

Richard was a pleasure to deal with from the very first minute we spoke about my property. He is super knowledgeable, patient, worked in my favour, and never asked me to rush a decision. It's real estate agents like Richard that give us all faith in an industry that often gets a bad wrap. I would gladly recommend his services to any of my friends. Thank you Richard.
