Tim, and the team at Belle Property Lane Cove, made selling our home as stress-free as possible. His approach, advice and marketing strategy were all spot-on and the communication on how our campaign was travelling was outstanding. We were extremely happy with the result and I highly recommend Tim, Simon and their team for their friendly nature and their excellent understanding of the market and how best to manage the sale of our home.

We needed to sell our property after 9 months of purchasing it. With the current Sydney market (in May-June 2019), we knew for sure that we were going to loose some money. I thought to myself that I needed to engage the best local selling agent in order to minimise the lost. After doing some research, I decided to engage Tim Holgate to be our representative. I can say it couldn't have been better. Tim has a vast local knowledge of the area, gave us great advice especially on the timing of the selling campaign, did everything that he said he was going to do for us. Tim was able to attract a lot of people to inspect our property (even it is on a main, noisy road) and secured 4 registered bidders. Auction date was nerve-racking, with Tim's great negotiation skill, we achieved a happy result.

Patrick Lang and Tim Holgate recently sold our Lane Cove apartment. We felt supported and informed and were treated as people, not just clients. Their instincts and advice were spot on. Our sale generated an incredible amount of interest and the agents managed and explored it very competently. The entire team at Belle Property worked tirelessly on our behalf and were helpful and pleasant to deal with. The knowledge, professionalism and responsiveness of both Patrick and Tim made the experience so much easier and stress-free than we anticipated - we actually enjoyed selling our apartment! We are also delighted with the result which was beyond our expectations in the current market.

I had previously purchased the property through Holgate's First National in 1997 and found them a totally professional agency. I had to sell in a difficult market and while not 'a distressed sale', this was not an ideal situation. I found Tim Holgate extremely personable and he kept me informed at all times during some difficult communications with potential purchaser(s). In addition his sales and administrative staff were attentive without being pressuring. I wish Belle Property Holgates the very best in their future sales and business opportunities.

It gives me great pleasure writing this reference for Tim Holgate who I have now used to sell two properties for me in the last 4 months. Selling a property can be stressful and overwhelming but Tim’s local knowledge, guidance and advice throughout the campaign gave us great comfort that we were making the right decisions. Come Auction day, Tim’s confidence and calming influence helped calm the nerves and his years of experience was certainly put to the test once the Auction was underway, we couldn’t be happier with the final result. From beginning to the end Tim Holgate does what he says he will do and I would highly recommend Tim Holgate and his team to anyone looking to sell their property.

Tim acted for me on the sale of my flat in Lane Cove. In an unpredictable and falling market he gave solid advice on the price I could expect. He was always available to discuss progress of my sale and worked hard to get potential bidders to my auction. In the end, in what the media were calling a flat market, I had 4 parties bidding on my property.

Well conducted and professional

I recently engaged the services of Tim Holgate to sell a property on behalf of my Late Uncle estate where I was executor. As executor, I had to make decisions for my late Uncle that sometimes where completely overwhelming but having Tim’s years of experience and calming influence in my corner made the process seamless. After meeting with Tim, it didn’t take him long to realise I hadn’t done this before. He took the time to explain the sale process to me in plain English, he also gave me a plan to prepare the property for sale. Tim’s experience was tested on many occasions during the sale, we had early offers that I wasn’t sure what to do with, one offer was above the price we considered selling for. I consulted with Tim and trusted his advice which I’m so glad we did. Come Auction day we had 7 registered bidders and sold the property for $69,000 above the best offer we received during the campaign. We are so happy with the result and guidance Tim offered throughout the process, he made my role as executor very easy and I highly recommend Tim if you are considering selling.

Tim was the real estate agent who managed the sale of the property when we first bought it 10 years ago. We were so impressed with him and his team that when we decided to rent out the property 5 years ago, we continued to use Belle Property to manage it as a rental. The property agent Sarah Moy went over and above for the 5 years she managed the property as she was immediately responsive to any issues that came up. When we decided to sell the unit, it was an easy decision to have Tim as our agent given the level of professionalism he showed over the past 10 years. He kept us up-to-date with all of the developments during the viewing period and worked harder than any agent we've ever dealt with. I cannot recommend Tim and the whole Belle Property team more if you are looking to buy, sell or rent out your property.

From the very beginning Tim came across as very professional and knowledgeable of the market in this area. We were excited to work with him as he gave us great confidence in his expertise and guided us every step of the way and made the whole process seem very easy. Tim gave informative feedback after the open homes and offered advice on what our strategy should be. When negotiating Tim was firm and we believe he got us the best price he could in this current market. Thanks Tim! We are happy with the result, and would definitely recommend you to others.

Tim and Ali have been supportive and flexiable through the process. With few sales going through at auction these days it was good to see the turnout and the final result ending up not too far from my original expectation. Thanks for your support Tim and Ali.

Very happy with result and advice I recieved .
