We can't say enough good things about our experience working with Sam! From the very beginning, he was professional, responsive, and genuinely dedicated to helping us achieve our real estate goals. Whether it was answering our many questions, organizing viewings on short notice, or providing honest advice, Sam was always one step ahead. What truly set him apart was his deep knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and ability to make the entire process smooth and stress-free. He listened carefully to what we wanted, advocated for our interests, and guided us every step of the way — from the initial search to the final closing. We felt confident and supported throughout the entire journey, and we’re beyond thrilled with the outcome. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares, look no further. Sam is simply the best! Highly recommended!

Sam from Raine & Horne was absolutely fantastic to work with. He helped sell my mum’s home with dignity and care, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Professional, respectful, and genuinely supportive throughout – and we got a great result. Highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of working with Sam during my recent property journey, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From our first meeting, Sam was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to truly understand my needs and was always available to answer questions or provide guidance, no matter how big or small. What stood out most was Sam’s honest and calm approach. He never pressured me and was always transparent about the market and what I could realistically expect. His local expertise and strategic advice made a real difference, and I felt supported every step of the way. Whether you're buying or selling, Sam is the kind of agent you want on your side—reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely committed to achieving the best result for his clients.

Seamless experience

Sam is one of the most honest and competent agents we ever have met. He is efficient, hard working and a skilled communicator and negotiator. We rented our property through his agency for almost two years and sold our property with him directly and the entire experience couldn't have been easier or better managed. We wouldn't go anywhere else when needing an agent again.

Exceptional Local Knowledge and Worked Hard to Achieve A Great Result

Sam provided excellent advice on how to present our house for sale and what we needed to do prior to listing to achieve the best result. He referred us to a wonderful team of tradespeople, cleaners and a great property stylist who did a terrific job in record time. Sam had a very clear idea of how to market our property which was spot on. He worked within an extremely tight deadline to achieve a really good result. His local knowledge and experience in the area was a huge plus and his team at Raine & Horne Forestville is outstanding.

Professional, knowledgeable, dedicated and honest.

We highly recommend Sam Pfafflin and Kristy Donkin from Raine & Horne Forestville who recently helped us with the sale of our Frenchs Forest family home. From the initial contacts to the actual sale, we felt we were in good hands. For the house preparation and presentation, we used all their recommended trades, which made the process smooth, efficient and stress free. We were impressed by Sam and Kristy’s level of dedication and availability. Although we knew they were extremely busy, no matter the question or the time of the question, we would receive a reply almost instantly. We trusted their advice and knowledge of the local market and were not disappointed. We feel we achieved the best possible outcome in the current market and do highly recommend Sam and Kristy to anyone looking at selling their property. We equally recommend the agency for their rental services.

Absolutely committed to looking after the interests of the vendor

Sam was extremely committed to my best interests & the result of the sale. The property was a difficult property to sell but Sam was committed to my best interests & the best sale result possible. I would definitely recommend Sam to any future vendor thinking of selling their property. I would definitely sell with Sam again.

Put your trust in Sam with absolute confidence

Selling a home, particularly a deceased estate, is difficult and stressful at the best of times. We are so grateful to have had Sam Pfafflin and his team handling our sale. Sam's local knowledge of the area and the buyers is second to none. Sam was thoroughly professional at all times, and his deft handling of the complex family dynamics at play was a testament to his skill and wealth of experience. Sam's communication throughout the whole process was fantastic. We put our trust in Sam and that trust was rewarded with an outstanding result. Thanks Sam!

From first contact, I knew we’d made the right decision to list the property with Sam. As a deceased estate with many beneficiaries Sam was able to guide us through

Sam and Kristy were a pleasure to deal with during the entire process of selling our family home which he had for over 25 years! They were transparent and honest the entire time, cared and their communication was impeccable. Thank you so much for being so great during such an emotional time for us.
