The Consummate Professional

I recommend the skills , knowledge , patience , network and integrity of Mr Simon Doak and the 1st City Minogue + Doak team Simon recently managed the sales process of my 3 bedroom terrace in Paddington. Simon and his team of professionals performed with aplomb and in excess of my expectations. Thank You Simon Jim

Always happy and willing to assist

Simon knows his market. He is not pushy and coaxes the transaction from both sides. Simon was always upfront which helped manage my expectations. Great sense of humour which can't be overlooked during a stressful time trying to find a house. Simon always got back to my queries promptly. Very happy to recommend.

Honest, experienced and trustworthy

Simon has been great throughout the sale campaign (and in the lead up)- always available on short notice to provide feedback and answer any questions we had. A 'straight shooter' who takes a long term approach on relationship building, which resonated both with ourselves as vendors and instilled the buyers with confidence and trust. His colleague Alana was also very professional. Would recommend.

Zero bullshit, total knowledge and commitment

We recently sold our Paddo terrace through Simon, having bought it through him a decade ago. The campaign he ran in a Covid-influenced market was brilliant. He was like a greyhound out of the gate with prepping our house for sale (we used his stylist) and our marketing materials. He was able to get a large number of credible buyers through the door during the campaign period and we ended up with a pretty packed auction day and some healthy competition for the place. Behind the scenes, Simon is brilliant at keeping you up to speed with what's going on and he's refreshingly down-to-earth about where he thinks everything is at. Optimistic, but also realistic - which is pretty much perfect for the market we find ourselves in. I'd highly recommend him to Paddo buyers. He knows this area like the back of his hand, is incredibly diligent and is something of an institution on our street, having sold (and re-sold) many of its houses over the years.

A highly professional stand out agent, you couldn't ask for more

As buyers, our experience with Simon was 100% smooth sailing. Buying a house can be super stressful but Simon really made it happen for us and conducted himself in the most professional & ethical manner at all times. We were both very impressed with his highly efficient service and transparency. His knowledge of the area is second to none, he really knows his stuff. He is a stand out agent, you couldn't ask for more.

Professional Friendly Communicator

Simon's exceptional dedication throughout the process and sale of the property; during these difficult covid times proved his commitment as a sincere and trustworthy agent. I have known Simon for many years and he once again was mindful of the detail involved in this sale and "made it happen". Personable and enthusiastic, Simon tailors his approach to each client through what is a high stress time.

Eastern suburbs knowledge and communication skills shines through.

If you want a real estate agent in the Eastern suburbs to sell your house, I highly recommend Simon Doak with 20 plus years experience. His market knowledge, commitment to achieve, dedication to my sale and communication skills are like nothing i have experienced previously and exceeded my expectations. All this combined, lead to a SOLD sticker on the sign board in an uncertain market.

Michael & Simon delivered!

They guided the process of selling our property from open house to auction with flare and attention to detail. By keeping us constantly updated there were no surprises and we are very pleased with the final result.

An excellent outcome

Simon navigated the delicate fine line between representing the vendor while ensuring the potential buyer was well looked after. He knows the area/street/dynamics thoroughly and provided a great service. We have had an excellent experience.

A pleasure to work with!

We cannot recommend Simon and 1stCity highly enough. He was always available for any questions we had, advice or guidance. He provided constant updates throughout the campaign and was very transparent with all the information and interested parties. His work ethic was outstanding and he was always happy to listen and accommodate our needs. We would highly recommend Simon and would not hesitate to use his services again.
