Simon's reputation preceded him so we expected him to be good - and he was! What we hadn't anticipated was the quality of the outstanding team he has built around him. Every interaction was handled extremely professionally and with minimal stress because the staff communicated with each other and were responsive to our needs. Many thanks!!
We have recently had the pleasure of purchasing a property marketed by Simon McGrath and found the whole process a lot easier than we expected. Simon was a very open and relaxed agent and stayed in the background while we looked around and discussed things amongst ourselves but happily answered any questions we had. We never felt we were being hurried or pushed to make decisions. Coming from inter-state, Simon was happy to take the time to explain how things worked in WA and had good knowledge of the suburb we will soon be living in. Simon effortlessly arranged several additional viewings so we felt very comfortable with the property when it came time to put in an offer. We would have no hesitation in recommending Simon to anyone thinking of selling their house.
Once again we were facing a cross roads in our life were we needed some help and advice. Quite a few years ago we were facing another crossroads with our family and where we wanted to be while we placed our children through schooling and there tertiary en devours. We turned to Simon and he found us the perfect family home for us then. Now our children are all becoming semi independent and we needed a change. So once again we turned to Simon. His ability to listen to our needs and our dreams and realistically evaluate them against today's market was invaluable. Not only has he been able to help us with our future but has managed to obtain top dollar for our house in today's market. His realistic evaluations , his guidance and his professionalism, his commitment to us as a seller, and his knowledge and networking abilities meant we sold our house in four days for our top price with minimum stress. We cant thank him enough for once again being part of our families transition into our next phase in our families lives. We would not use anyone else other than Simon McGrath.
Simon and his team have been great through every step of our sale, from the initial meeting, to each home open, the sale (after only three home opens) and the follow up communications and necessities. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone trying to sell (or buy!) for top notch and efficient service. Thanks Simon!
Simon's marketing was sensational with great online coverage on social media with features in the local Post newspaper and nationally in the Australian Financial Review. We received an offer after the first weekend and continued to have consistent ongoing interest. Simon negotiated a subject to sale and then arranged a further unconditional sale. We received the price we wanted which we thought was an incredible result in a difficult market. Simon's unwavering tenacity, professionalism and always happy and positive attitude made selling our family home of 21 years less stressful. We'd also like to thank his wonderful team, especially Alice for all her guidance and support. We have no hesitation in referring Simon to anyone considering selling their home in the Mount Claremont area. Thank you from the Gava family!
Simon M's marketing execution was impressive and to the best possible standard. Professional still images, 3D room images with virtual walk through technology, personal video with Simon as host walking people "through" the home all contributed to an excellent online experience. We received editorial coverage in the Post Newspaper and Front Cover in the Western Suburbs newspaper real estate lift out. The end result was solid visitations at home opens and multiple offers. These circumstances resulted the house selling for the appropriate price in a quiet market. Very professional work. The home sold for Mid $2's in Cottesloe. I can recommend Simon without hesitation for marketing residential real estate in the more up market suburbs of Perth.
Simon gave us an appraisal for our property in 2015. When we wanted to purchase an apartment in 2017 we contacted Simon. He re-appraised our property, viewed his data base, and within a matter of days had 5 couples view our house resulting in an offer which fell through due to finance. Simon then advertised once, showing an aerial view only, and with one home open received three offers. We are still talking about his professionalism not to mention how personable he is and how he has his clients interests only in mind. We thank him for relieving us of the stress of selling our property, and therefore being able to purchase the apartment of our choice.
Simon sold our home using his transparent negotiation process. The entire deal took 4 weeks from start to finish and the end result was what we hoped for. Simon's easy going and honest approach made the whole experience enjoyable.
Simon helped us buy a block of land and sell our home. Simon made both deals a very smooth and stress free experience. He is easy to communicate with and always open and honest in his approach.
I engaged Simon for the sale of an investment property on behalf of my mother in Mount Claremont in 2017. From the start I was impressed with Simon's communication, professionalism and credentials. It was apparent that he is committed and passionate about his work and and strives to deliver the best outcomes for his clients, as was the case with us. We were very happy with the sale price achieved and the process undertaken. Even though I was not the actual client, Simon was more than happy to meet and discuss the sale, providing us with a full explanation of the process and expected outcome in the given market. Communication was easy and pleasant as well as, most importantly, informative. All questions were respectfully engaged and answered to our satisfaction. Communication with the office via email was equally efficient and responded to on each occasion by his personal assistant. I have no hesitation in recommending Simon McGrath as a highly dedicated, professional and effective sales professional to anybody seeking to market their property.
From contacting his database of buyers at the start, through the home open phase to the offer and acceptance, Simon worked hard to generate multiple offers for my property and create an element of competition amongst potential buyers. Simon provided plenty of advice on the best way to sell an older house on a great block. All completed before the March long weekend so that I was able to relax knowing the deal was done.
Being a foreigner totally unfamiliar with the Perth real estate, many agents were not enthusiatic in assisting us to acquire a home especially upon hearing a budget less than the median price of homes at the suburbs we were interested in. Meeting Simon was an alternate option as the primary agent was not too keen to show us around. Simon was the one who took us around showing different homes nearing oir budget and explained the neighbourhood and the property market. I was truly impressed and we finally got our home through Simon, twice our initial budget budget but we got a home full of loving memories. I recommend Simon to my parents when it was time to sell their home. They were very satisfied with Simon as well. This time, we have to sadly part with our home and we would want no one else but Simon to find a new home owner to start their memorable happy memories living in our former home. Thank you Simon.
