We couldn't have asked for a better agent! We sold our house in a week at a price above our greatest expectations. Everything about Simons performance was exceptional. If you are looking for an agent in the hills we would thoroughly recommend Simon.
We couldn't be happier with the sale of our family home. Simon Kowald was so professional and he achieved a totally unexpected result. We appreciated the way in which Simon managed our sale, he kept us fully informed through the process and managed to be considerate of the fact that this had been a family home for 67 years. We were content to leave the situation in Simon's hands knowing he would manage the process with expertise and he did not let us down.
I found Simon to be totally honest throughout the whole process. Simon gave me an indication of i where i needed to be with my offers and as a result i successfully purchased my property. Simon gave me the confidence that i wasn't wasting my time and i wasn't being used to bump up other offers compared to other agents the i have had experience with in the area.
I was very impressed in all my dealings with Simon from start to finish. He was always friendly, communicated excellently and got me a great price for my house. I would recommend him to anyone.
My wife & I recently sold our home through Simon Kowald from Gilmour Real Estate in Castle Hill. After careful consideration we chose Simon because of the 3 simple things- Honesty, Respect & Integrity. From the outset Simon was upfront about how he planned to market the home & even had direct input into how we should have the photos done which in the end looked fantastic. Simon has a great knowledge of the local market & the price point he said we should achieve was certainly at the top end of what we had hoped for. The interest that Simon managed to generate showed in our first open home only one day after being listed on the real estate sales sites. After 4 days of being on the market we had an offer that was far to good to refuse - after consultation with Simon we sold straight away instead of going to auction as previously planned. My wife & I have 4 young children & Simon was very sensitive to the stresses that open homes etc can have on young families so he setup our open home times to accommodate our needs. We found Simon to be a diligent, likeable & hard working agent who from the start used a common sense approach to help us achieve our goal which was to sell our house as smoothly as possible. He is a young man who has a sound moral compass & a judgement that can only be considered to be SPOT ON. For anyone thinking of selling their home I absolutely would have no hesitation in recommending Simon Kowald from Gilmour Real Estate.
Being presented with an opportunity to buy my second property excited me somewhat, however dealing with a reputable, knowledgeable and ethical real estate agent eliminated any fears if any existed. I found Simon to be genuine in his approach, and very neutral in his dealings. To top it off, he is a true gentleman in his manner and charisma. I have no buyer remorse, nor do I feel like I have made a bad decision. Much if this feeling can be attributed to Simon and his approach. Our family appreciate your assistance, and hope you will be available for all future dealings with our property investments. Roger Nakad and Family.
Very good sales rep, nice negotiation skills. Professional knowledge! Thank you for all.
I would like to thank Simon for his excellent service when trying to sell my house and for getting all the paperwork into motion super fast. Simon has always displayed a very positive and cheery disposition. His attitude toward his work is always very professional and thorough, and he is very approachable. We would also like to thank all of the staff at Gilmour Property Agents for being so friendly and helpful whenever we call on them no matter what the issue is. I would recommend them to anyone.
Simon responded to all communications promptly, nothing was too much trouble. Simon displayed honesty and enthusiasm. We were confident he would sell our property quickly and he did.
In today market buying a property could be quite frustrating, in particular as a first time buyer with no experience and knowledge of the process. Simon has been very helpful from the beginning, offering great and reliable advice. Simon helped me in identifying the real value of the property and ways to maximise its value. In addition, all communication with Simon was easy and efficient in which he was accessible and responsive. I highly recommend Simon, both to buyers in the area and sellers as you will be impressed with his service.
As a buyer, I do know that Simon has tried very hard to achieve the best deal for vendors. His efforts made me paid a lot more than I wished, but I understand that's what an excellent agent should do. Another agent, who sold my property, never answered my phone after the contract exchanged. Because he said he need to look after new customers. But Simon is completely different. He always replies no matter how busy he is. He even helped me to arrange the renting which is not his responsibility at all. In conclusion, Simon is an excellent agent for BOTH of vendors and buyers!
Buying or selling a house can be very stressful. However Simon makes the process easy. We asked Simon to sell our home as he had previously sold a property for us. We trusted him and he did not let us down. He obtained a good price in a fast time due to his hard work and dedication to our interest. I can thoroughly recommend Simon to anyone contemplating a real estate transaction, and would ask Simon to sell another property if the occasion ever occurred.
