We dealt with Simon Farrar in the purchase of a beach house in Merricks Beach earlier this year( 2016 ). He was exceptional ! His knowledge of the process, and calmness throughout, meant we never felt stressed. Plus nothing was ever too much trouble, including with details after settlement. Simon is obviously very talented in transacting property. We couldn't recommend him highly enough. Mark & Helen, Canterbury.
In 2002 we purchased this property as a vacant block of land from Simon, 14 years later when it was time to sell we considered Simon amongst other agents. Simon's longevity in the industry and with the same agency stands above most that he's here for the long haul. Paired with his honesty and pleasant personality he shone well above all others. While others promised more, few really listened, in the end we felt the most comfortable with Simon and believed that we would be best served by him. Simon was attentive to our requests and we asked him to sell the home as if it was his own. We fully embraced the marketing package he suggested which included an excellent video package fronted and narrated by Simon. Within one week of the initial launch Simon had six parties interested in the home and offers started rolling in. Simon conducted private inspections as well as scheduled ones almost every day (even on his day off) to ensure no opportunity was missed to secure a buyer. Needless to say the rest is history and our house was sold almost too quickly for a record price in our estate. We fully understand that we were very lucky, but we also understand that Simon made the most of his opportunities and worked very hard to take nothing for granted. I can only say positive things about Simon and can only suggest that at the very least you meet him and listen to what he has to say. Experience does count, great job Simon.
Dear Simon We first bought the house with your guidance 8 years ago & found you to be a very professional person. Your communication skills & integrity are of a very high standard.

Over the 8 years you have not lost any of your enthusiasm, integrity or communication skills, you worked tirelessly on our behalf & the most important element is the end result which was above our expectations.

Simon presented as a well dressed,clean cut and a confident agent. He listened calmly to our story and related back to his life experience. He was friendly and confident of making the sale price needed. He immediately gave us a list of things we could do to enhance the sale. He reported each inspection of the property and what the clients had said about it, which we found useful and excellent communication. Simon negotiated successfully for the price we needed. In every aspect Simon showed himself to be a skilful Real Estate Agent who we feel happy to highly recommend to our family, friends and acquaintances.

I was delighted with the service that Simon Farrar provided my husband and I when selling our property in Mornington. Simon was always available and kept us up to date on a very regular basis with how the sale was progressing. Our sale was complicated by the fact that we were conducting this transaction from a distance as we were living in Queensland. Simon was very professional and keen to ensure we understood all aspects of the sale. We were extremely pleased with the outcome of the sale as we achieved a price beyond our expectation and this was definitely the result of Simon's hard work.
I have had multiple real estate experiences Simon and at all times he has been professional and has great communications skills. I hope to have more dealings with Simon in the future.
We have rated Simon Farrar 5 stars in each category without hesitation because my wife and I believe that he thoroughly deserves this rating. We have bought and sold five homes and have no doubt in saying this was the most satisfactory. All others were good, but this was without doubt excellent. Simon's thoughtfulness, courtesy, and efficiency in all respects made selling and buying so easy. He has the ability to put you at ease. We thank him, and congratulate him.
We would like to thank Simon for going truly above and beyond in assisting us to sell our property. Simon was very approachable, patient, had excellent communication skills, was honest and genuine, and was very attentive to our property. Simon also had exceptional negotiation skills, and worked hard to sell our property, creating an excellent rapport with our potential buyers. We felt so lucky to have found Simon, he made the whole selling process smooth and stress-free. He even helped us sell some of our furniture to the new purchaser! Our house sold in under a week and after just one open inspection! I highly recommend Simon.
I will continue to recommend Simon for to all my friends, family and associates. Simon has completed a few transactions for us and in each case his work ethic and his professionalism was at an unquestionable level. His communication at all times was also commendable. Thank you again Simon for all your work.
