We needed to see out family home of 8 years. We sought the opinion of several agents in the suburb but were so impressed with Richard Slade. A true professional in every sense of the word. He was so energetic enthusiastic honest and organised. He assessed the home and recommended a few improvements and within 1 day there were gardeners, home stylists and painters going us quotes !! He gave us time lines for the events and everything went to plan. Richard was at each opening and keep us informed of each opening. We chose Buxton because their network system where by buyers from other suburbs are encouraged to look elsewhere. They have all the data in their systems about potential buyers, their limits, the auctions they have attended etc - amazing. The whole process was so organised from our view. We achieved a result several hundred thousand above our reserve and cannot fault any of the process. Thank you Richard and your team. You were absolutely sensational. I would highly recommend you to anyone wanting a terrific result with selling their home

My husband and I undertook to lodge a planning submission to demolish our family home on a lot in Hampton to redevelop it for two dwellings, one of which we intended to live in. We obtained a planning permit and were quickly approached by Buxtons who saw the value in the proposed development. The agent assigned to our property was Richard Slade who proved to be a very intelligent and committed real estate professional who discussed with us the potential of the development and assisted in presenting the options for marketing the second dwelling. We decided to test the market and seek to sell the property off the plan. Richard took a leading role in co-ordinating the marketing of the property and guided us with regard to the material that we needed to use in advertising and the possible market price we could seek. Richard was prepared to contemplate the price we were seeking which was quite high and he did not pressure us to drop the price to ensure a quick sale. The result was that we attracted some serious interest with a number of offers coming in at lower prices and while Richard notified us of those offers, he did not pressure us to lower our agreed price. Ultimately we obtained a very significant offer, which we determined to accept as it would reduce our holding costs and remove the uncertainty of the project. Richard was a very active participant in obtaining negotiating with the purchasers and obtaining a record price for our property. This is in a context where there have been some very good prices obtained for substantial dwellings in the street. I can highly recommend Buxtons and particularly Richard Slade, for their professional and sympathetic approach to securing a successful sale of our property. I can see why the company is so productive, as its approach is based on a full understanding of the market and the triggers that will appropriately match buyers and sellers in the local area. Yours Faithfully, Lyn Perry

We would happily recommend Richard to any prospective seller. He provided a very accurate estimate of our property value and managed the process from start to finish with a high level of professionalism and competence. Richard kept us well informed and provided very honest feedback throughout the process. We felt at all times that Richard was motivated by our best interests and trusted him to guide us through the process of selling. The final sale price that we achieved was a direct result of Richard's negotiating skills, and would not have been achieved without his involvement.

"Richard is a great salesman and a very patient one too. We believe we cannot thank him enough for everything he has done for us. Richard has helped us before sale & after sale and we very grateful to him. He is a professional." Fred & Helen Kholosi

I rate Richard Slade as a top Real Estate Agent. He has a respectful demeanour and personality, is not pushy, a good listener and does not enforce his views regarding sale price, staging or anything to do with the sale of a property. Richard is a good listener and understands his vendor's point of view and offers advice where necessary. His negotiation skills, vast knowledge of real estate and valuable experience have given me a better than expected result in the sale of my property. I would recommend Richard highly and would use his services again for buying or selling property.

Richard is a very tenacious character, but at the same time he was willing to listen to our requirements and refrained from pushing us in any particular direction. He gave us the facts, answered our questions, advised us on current market conditions and consulted with us regarding marketing, etc, and then allowed us time to consider what we wanted. Once we had made up our mind to sell he was very supportive, arranging things quickly and efficiently. He kept us in the loop regarding feedback, which was kept factual and free from false expectation. Richard is an ethical, pleasant, honest agent who provides an excellent service. We believe the negotiation he was involved in was exceptional and would recommend Buxton Sandringham to anyone considering selling in Bayside.

We can not Thank Richard and his team for every thing they did in selling our property in Beaumaris. Richard was only a phone call away with anything we needed . He was professional at all times. He was always dressed impeccable and always kept us informed about the market , leads and negotiations. Richard was always very calm and would visit us after business hours may times.We were emailed weeks in advance with open hours for our property and he even took care of our dogs when we needed him to. We had complete trust in Richard... We would not go past Richard and Buxton. He have used them again in our search for a rental property and will be contacting them again when we decide to buy again. Gary and I Highly recommend Richard and his team. I am more than happy to give my phone number and call me directly.. Kind Regards Anne and Gary Toakley

Intelligent, trustworthy and provided fantastic service. I highly recommend Richard.

Richard is a hardworking professional who worked on the sale of our property. He is patient, knowledgeable and most of all - fair. We found Richard to be helpful and we still keep in touch with Richard to this day. We recently reached out to Richard to obtain some advice on a potential purchase within the Buxton group. Richard immediately obtained more information on this property and was forthcoming with this information. He offered great advice and has supported us unconditionally in our quest to find another property. We hope that we can purchase this new property through Buxton again (will see how the auction goes). We have recommended Richard to our work and personal collegues and have no hesitations in purchasing or selling more property through him. Doug & Alissa

Professional, attentive, strong team and an excellent final result. Richard will work very hard for you. Couple of hiccups in the first week of e-advertising although remedied extremely quickly. Highly recommend.

Richard looked after me very well had a good result on the day

Richard was selected on a hunch that he would deliver a no fuss, well communicated service in selling our two unique apartments in Hampton East for a great result. He delivered. Richard is a stand up professional who was particularly strong in his follow ups and persistence with us and the potential buyers. We would always get a prompt, no worries, response no matter when we called or messaged him. Often even late in the evenings which was not expected, but welcomed. We were treated like a long valued customer and would certainly look to use Richard again in future property sales.
