Steven was upfront from the very beginning about the current state of the market and what interest my property was likely to garner. I needed everything explained as this was my first time selling and he was patient and kind, also going beyond to make things continue smoothly when I move interstate during the sales campaign. I highly recommend him specifically for rivervale and surrounding area as he's a local and knows every street and heartbeat of the locale.

Thank you so much Steve for the very quick sale of our property and your empathetic nature of our situation and requirements. Your knowledge of the current market and professionalism. Steve, James and Sandy kept in touch with us throughout the process. Thank you Sandy for your enthusiasm in finding us a suitable property and importantly your friendship. The entire process was extremely professional. Thank you Bourkes and your entire team for seeing us through stress free.

Yes we will recommend Bourkes Real Estate to any person we come across who are in this field of needing to sell their home.

From his excellent local knowledge to his strong negotiation skills, Steven is by far the best real estate agent I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He exhibits a level of professionalism and experience far above other agents. I would happily recommend Steven to all my friends, family and colleagues.

Cannot speak highly enough about Steven, this man knows his job and does it very professionally. His Knowledge in regards to market today was spot on and he got us a very good price on our property. He will sit you down and go through the stages of what they will do and really knows how to put your mind at ease. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Steven in selling your house for you, he is worth his weight in gold. Thank you again Steven, for all you did for us.

Steven always kept us up to date with all that was happening, and his market inside was very helpful

Steven’s professionalism and expertise were instrumental in us securing our new home. He helped us negotiate a revised settlement date that complemented other commitments. Thanks Steven.

I am very happy with the sale of my home through Steven and Sandra, both who worked hard to sell my property at a price I was happy with. Steven was very responsive and flexible to my requests. He knew the area of my property very well, and he was professional without being cocky (like I found some agents to be). Being a researcher, I certainly did my homework for an agent, and Steven ticked all the boxes. His colleague, Sandy, was great too. She has a no bull-shit approach (or down-to-earth if you prefer diplomacy), which I appreciate. She helped me with the presentation of the home and other stages of the process. When it came to the final inspection for the buyers, she was stern yet polite when they wanted to measure up the house and show it off to others, which is not part of a final inspection. I highly recommend Steven and Sandy for the sale and purchase of homes. Thanks team for a great selling experience.

Great communicator and Knowles the market well- appears to have a lot of potential buyers on his contact list.

Just sold my house through Steve, it settled yesterday. Steve and his team were amazing. His local knowledge was excellent and he knew exactly the target market for my house (it was a heritage listed property). Sold within 5 days of listing! Their fee was higher than some of the others, but he promised he would get me a higher price to cover it - and he delivered WAY BEYOND my hopes and dreams. I ended up with a lot more money in my pocket than expected. Zero regrets, would happily use them again for my next property.

Our new property purchase just settled yesterday. We sincerely appreciate their prompt responses in resolving all the unexpected issues. Their willingness to go the extra mile and make quick decisions helped us to have a smooth settlement. Steven and Sandy always got back to us promptly regardless of day or night. We like their no-nonsense approach and just on to the business to help the buyers and sellers. We are super grateful to have such a practical, proactive, experienced team with integrity to help us during the entire process. A special BIG thank you to Kim as well. Steven and Sandy also got Kim to help and guided us through some of the issues with our purchase. Kim provided the information timely (we desperately needed it at that time). Without their valuable input, we won’t be able to settle our property just before the deadline (hence avoiding related penalties). We admire their dedication, experience, expertise, honesty, fairness, cooperation, and generosity. We highly recommend them if you need a team to help sell or buy your property.

Steven and Sandy did an amazing job helping us buy our first home. They were very helpful, patient and responsive with us as we were learning the ropes of purchasing a property. They even went above and beyond to help us find tenants for the first six months as we couldn’t move in straight away. They are very knowledgeable about the area and overall we were very happy with the outcome. Extra thank you to Sandy for our welcome muffins :)
