A very experienced agent who has a deep and long-standing knowledge of the real estate market. Syd was very thorough in preparing for the sale of our property. Every aspect of the campaign was discussed with us and delivered via W.B.Simpson & Son's team. We felt the firm supported us, answered all our questions and shared our values. They were honest and transparent about buyer feedback. The quality and detail of their recommendations was first rate. This kept us grounded throughout the sale and established a deep respectful trust for their professionalism. We followed their advice and achieved an excellent result, beyond our expectations. We highly recommend Syd and W.B.Simpson & Son.

Happy with the sale, thanks Syd

We engaged Syd Sherrin to sell our North Melbourne property and were extremely happy with his advice and professionalism. We were kept well informed at every step in the selling process and received weekly reports on inspection results. Syd phoned us regularly to discuss progress and answer any of our questions. Our property sold well thanks to Syd's efforts and we have no hesitation in recommending him to you.

Excelled at his job.

I didn't get to meet Syd until the day of the auction, but that's fine. His skilled and steady hand had been guiding potential buyers through the property and, indeed, to the auction. Eight serious bidders arrived on the day and a truly remarkable outcome was achieved. Although, from my point of view, Syd had been working in the background it is obvious that he was the face-to-face contact with potential buyers and achieved an incredible result. Skill and experience will always win out.

Syd has a great knowledge of the North Melbourne market, he is a very good communicator and developed a strong working relationship with us. Selling a house can be quite stressful and Syd through his professionalism made this sale much easier. We were very happy with the final result.

After being responsible for renting out my North Melbourne apartment for nearly 13 years, I approached W B Simpson to sell the apartment. I was put onto Syd Sherrin. I explained that I was looking for a quick sale so I could take the sale proceeds and fund a renovation on my primary residence. Syd acted promptly, gave me the selling options he considered best given that my apartment was tenanted. These options made sense, and I trusted his judgement. True to his word, he made contact with potential investors and within a couple of weeks I had two offers which quickly led to a sale for a price that I was happy with. At all times, Syd was available by phone or email. His communication was excellent. He was friendly and helpful, and seemed genuinely interested in working with me to meet my needs. I would not hesitate to recommend Syd.

Extraordinary Auction Result

Syd has been in the industry a long time and we found him very experienced, knowledgable and personable with always an anecdote or story to tell. He kept us well informed of the progress of the sale in regards to interest and queries.His decision to advertise our property both for commercial use and or private dwelling resulted in a wider base of interest and a extraordinary result on auction day. Could not recommend Syd and W.B.Simpson highly enough especially in the North Melbourne area where they have been established since 1872 !
