Thank You Simon! You've gone above and beyond your call-of-duty and made sure our house buying experience was painless and wonderful! We appreciate all your patience and hard work. You've changed the way we thought about real estate agents! Thanks Elissa & Gautam!
We were so fortunate to have Simon as our Agent when selling our home in HAYWARDS BAY. Honest & down to earth, an all round nice guy. Communication was a breeze, always keeping us up to date. But best of all he always worked towards the best achievable outcome for us. Lucky for us (& Simon's hard work) our outcome was an amazing result. Thank you Simon!
I felt disappointed the way the sale was handled and felt I was not taken seriously when I first showed interest in the property. During the sale transition, I didn't feel supported when I made an honest mistake on the front of the contact. Agent seem to forget that he acted for me in negotiating the day before (memory loss). I was disappointed on the day that I settled that the agent was even here to give me the keys (I waited for quiet a while to be told a text was sent to me to where to find the keys). It would of been much better to have left a bottle of cheap wine than cheap lollies for us in kitchen. I have brought several houses in the past and never had this experience before. My close girlfriend who was also buying a house from the you at the same time also complained about the way the sale was handled. I don't think I could honestly recommended this agency to anyone after my experience.
This is the third home my wife and I have sold through an agent and the first time we have used Scholtens. We are very happy with how he presented our property and marketed it resulting in an excellent sale price. Thanks Simon for all your hard work and patience.
After purchasing our first home from Simon Scholtens in 2012 and being somewhat surprised/absolutely impressed with the way he conducted business, there was no question that we would list with him in 2014 to sell. Breaking the paradigm of the stereotypical real estate agent Simon was professional, personable and no nonsense, "just get the job done" attitude. Always available and went over and above to accommodate some of our requests. We were under time constraints having purchased another property, Simon met with us, had the property photographed (portrayed impeccably) and an open home within 10 days. On the day of viewing, we received multiple offers before the open home was complete and ended up selling for a record, unprecedented price in the complex. Most real estate agents we encountered do the industry a disservice with their arrogance (particularly in a vendors market), their tendency to over promise and under deliver and blatantly putting there own interests ahead of both vendor and purchaser. Our experience on both occasions with Simon Scholtens was the opposite, what it came down to quite simply is that he did what he said he would, when he said he would. Always available and a down to earth personable bloke who gets things done. We actively recommend Simon personally and Scholtens Real Estate to anyone looking to buy or sell and we though we will personally engage them for all of our future real estate needs.
The purchase of the unit was trouble free, and we are very happy with the level of communication through the purchase process. Simon was also able to find tenants for the property quickly. In the six months or so that we have had this property, all matters associated with the management of the property have been dealt with in a timely manner.
We were selling an unusual property in FIGTREE, but Simon and his team were not at all phased. He was with us every step of the way; always calm, suppotive and encouraging. His attention to detail was great and his commitment to us as his clients was amazing. Thank you again for all your hard work and kindness - made the whole process go smoothly. Simon, you are an absolute gem!
We would have no trouble in tell you to contact Simon for all your real estate needs he we lesson to your needs.
After having at least 10 agents through to potentially list our property we were recommended to Simon by a friend who also sold with him... and we were glad to go with Him. there was a no bull approach to the sale and a great marketing plan put in place, Simon guided us the who way and offered a fantastic photo opportunity that I think was the selling point for our property. His Honesty was fantastic and kept us realistic with our pricing and the final result was Great. A sale with in 3 days of listing and at a great price. even after the sale Simon worked hard up until the settlement with a very hands on approach helping me and the buyer settle quickly and smoothly. I read may testimonials and wounder if they are people being honest, an now I find myself making bold statements However they are all true. Great work Simon and the Team, I would recommend you to any one intrested in selling. Thanks Tamara & Shaun
