We turned to Simon when the sale of our house fell through 3 months after it was originally sold through another company. We did not want to go to auction and asked Simon to try and sell it privately. He had it sold within the week for over a $100,000 more than the original sale. Thanks Simon.
I would like to thank Simon and Kate for the help during a stressful time of selling our family home , a home that I personally was born in and have had a lifetime of memories in , it was hard and emotionally draining but , Simon and Kate made the whole thing far less daunting and less painful we thank you for your time , patience and professionalism :)
Simons continued hard work throughout our campaign was exceptional, his determination and resourcefulness was a main factor in us exceeding our expectations with the sale of our family home. His communication kept us informed and at ease at what was a big and important step for our family. Simon comes with our highest recommendations........
Its easy writing something about Simon as the experience we had before, during and after the auction was second to none. His knowledge, humor and personal touch all added to the experience. Would never hesitate to recommend Simon. Steve and Yuan
Simon Pintado has been extremely helpful and supportive over the last three years whilst we were undertaking the planning and design phase of our proposed two townhouse development. He maintained very regular contact, offering advise re design & fitout to maximise saleability and return. His market knowledge is excellent and when we made the decision to on sell our property with plans and permits through an off market transaction, naturally we turned to Simon who was able to broker a deal that we were very happy with. Simon is now assisting us to find a new home. Would highly recommend Simon to anyone looking to sell their property
Rose and I want to say a big thank you to Simon Pintado and Chris Hassall. A fortunate twist of fate led us to engaging Simon and Chris of Buxton Bentleigh to sell our property. The proposal they put forward was easy to understand and despite some tricky negotiations with potential buyers, they handled the sale in a smooth, seamless and no-nonsense manner. Moreover the sale price achieved exceeded the expectations of all other agents we had considered and was achieved within a relatively short space of time – only 3 weeks. The overall experience has left a big mark on us. Thank you.
We recently had the pleasurable experience of hiring Simon to sell our house and the campaign went really well. Simon and his team provided us with round the clock communication and outstanding service. We had significant interest in our place due to the right marketing advice and positioning of our property by Simon and all of the 3rd parties they use for interior decorating, photography, copy-writing, floral arrangements and window cleaning were all outstanding professionals. We originally hired Simon after witnessing his performance at another auction in our area and were so impressed with not just the result he obtained, but the way in which he engaged everyone and actually knew the bidders by name. It illustrated to us how invested he was in the process and how he personally worked with potential buyers, prior to the auction. In terms of service, Simon and Kate where extremely responsive to us via email, phone and instant messaging and they were completely straight up about everything - this to us was the most valuable part of the experience. In terms of the next most important part of the camping was the sale result itself. Our auction (despite having all positive signs and interest) didn't reach our desired amount immediately. However, it is exactly in times like these when the best estate agents really shine. Simon, spent the rest of the day following up with each and every interested party and ensured that our house was sold by the end of the very same day. His persistence, determination and sheer negotiation skills really came through. Moreover, he was so keen to provide us with great service, he also acted on our behalf at a couple of auctions as a bidder and was successful in the purpose our our dream home too. He is a respectful, considerate and reasonable gentleman and cares about the welfare of his clients. We would definitely use Simon again at the next opportunity and absolutely recommend him to you too!
Simon's passion and enthusiasm enabled him to get an outstanding result for us, prior to auction. His attention to detail and commitment to following up every potential buyer ensured we were very happy with the outcome. Simon showed he was able to build rapport with a wide range of buyers, negotiate successfully, act swiftly and give informed advice.
Simon and his team deliver! Everything Simon says he will do, he does. The whole selling process ran like clockwork, communication was 100% all the way along and it was absolutely enjoyable working with him and Kate. I always felt everything was being looked after and that I could relax and let him get on with the job. Best ever video and overjoyed with the staggering result! Highest recommendation . . .
We would thoroughly recommend Simon Pintado as an Agent who works really hard to get you through, what most people would find, to be a very stressful and emotional process. We found him to be someone who, in our experience, delivered on his promises. He gave advice when asked and knew when to respect our ideas/decisions. Simon also made himself available when we bought our next property, also through Buxton Bentleigh. We felt he was there to support us, rather than pressure us. He is a real asset to Buxton Bentleigh and his enthusiastic nature is his gift.
Choosing Buxton Bentleigh, and in particular Simon Pintado, was one of the best decisions we could have made with our development. Simon has done a sensational job for us, resulting in the successful sale of our townhouse prior to its completion. We first met Simon at various open houses, where he initially impressed us with his confident knowledge of the local market and willingness to offer advice to enhance the sale potential of our townhouse design. As our agent, we believe he gave his total commitment to our interests and achieved a fabulous result for us. Simon developed a strategy for us which covered the potential of a pre-completion sale as well as auction and he kept us informed regularly of his contact with potential buyers and their feedback on our property. The sale price he achieved for us exceeded our original expectations and were a direct result of his knowledge of and confidence in the quality of our development and his perseverance. Simon is an impressive young professional whom we believe will have a long and successful career in real estate and we would have no hesitation in engaging him again, should the opportunity arise.
