We chose Ross Bywater to sell our house based on first impressions and we were very happy with our choice. Ross was very professional, personable, prompt and efficient in returning calls and at all times appeared to have his finger on the pulse of where we were at in the process. This enabled us to feel relatively in control at all times. What we saw and experienced at the first meeting was what we got through-out the process and were very happy with Ross and the McGrath team and the efficient and successful sale of our house.

Ross has now sold 3 of my properties & is the only agent in greater Geelong that we trust to act on our behalf. Ross works hard, including cold calling & door knocking if needed. So many agents just wait for business to come to them but this is why we use Ross as he goes out after buyers. Ross is in my view the best agent in Geelong to sell through.

From the beginning Ross was accurate with his assessment of our property and planned approach to marketing, and was therefore able to position it for maximum results. Ross's work ethic was amazing, as was his communication between myself and all associated with the sale. Ross's knowledge, experience and communication skills contributed to a very quick sale and I would highly recommend him as a property agent.

Ross remained patient & supportive as I went through the process of preparing & eventually selling a parents home. At all times Ross listened to my concerns & supported an excellent outcome. I have dealt with other agents in Melbourne & can categorically say the Ross has been my best experience.

Ross Bywater is both professional and trustworthy. We have the utmost confidence in Ross and his McGrath team to achieve the best possible outcome. Not only did we choose Ross to sell our family home, but also bought our new home through him. Ross is genuine and "left no stone unturned" to gain the best result for us. We highly recommend Ross Bywater and McGrath Real Estate to anyone considering selling or buying. Chris and Dianne Dolley

We bought at auction with Ross and found him to be honest and friendly without being pushy. He has been very helpful with all our requests.

The first time I met Ross I found him to be a nice person and felt at ease with him. Once we started to talk business he was professional and knowledgeable but didn't hesitate to tell you that your idea wouldn't in this case. Although I wasn't at the auction (on holiday) the family feedback was positive and was reflected in the final bid. The selling price was well above our expectation and demonstrated the work and effort put in by Ross. I will recommend Ross to anyone I know selling property in the future. Congratulations and well done Ross. Ron & Marion Carroll

Ross was a pleasure to deal with when looking to purchase the property. He always followed up with a phone call during the auction campaign and was very professional. A clear communicator. I would definitely recommend him if you were looking to sell your property.

We absolutely recommend Ross Bywater from McGraths Geelong. We found Ross to be very understanding and sympathetic to our individual needs. His friendly and happy nature and his professional attitude filled us with confidence from our first meeting. He kept us informed each step of the way so we always felt in control. We were given a comprehensive report after each open inspection and Ross made himself available often at very short notice for private inspections and we always received a follow up phone call. By the time Auction day dawned we felt relaxed and confident knowing that Ross had run a very successful marketing campaign and that he had spoken on numerous occasions to prospective bidders to gauge their commitment. Supported by the team from McGraths and thanks to the patience and experience of the auctioneer David Cortous we were delighted with the results and we would have no hesitation in recommending Ross to anyone who might be feeling anxious about the sale process. He was able to put our minds at ease and thanks to his constant updates his approachable nature and his hard work and commitment to the task at hand we sailed through the auction. Ross also met with us a couple of days after the auction to talk about the whole process in an effort to see where he could improve the process for future sellers.

We were extremely happy with every aspect of the sale process of our home in Geelong. Ross was able to explain how an auction would best suit our property in the current market, how best to advertise it and how the campaign would be carried out. At all times we felt involved and informed with regard to the campaign. Ross would provide us with detailed (and easy to understand) reports and reviews of the week, and in the days leading up to the auction he was ready to listen to any concerns or nerves we had and talk to us about them. We were so happy with the way Ross and his colleagues carried out the auction itself too, and were thrilled with the auction result. Ross understands the Geelong market, goes out of his way to understand the wishes of his clients, and was able to secure a sale price well above our set reserve. Everything we could have asked for!
