We recently purchased a property from Vern, and we have to say that he really was Fabulous. We have bought and sold many properties, but Vern was a standout agent. We know that without Vern the sale would not have gone ahead as smoothly as it did, it was a complicated purchase, but he went over and above what anyone could have expected to get the job done. He is an absolute pleasure to deal with, and we will be using Vern for our future sales and recommending him to all our friends. Thanks Vern, we really do think you are absolutely Fabulous!

In the process of selling our home at Chapel Hill through Vern and Josh, other than achieving the result we are hoping for, we found the supposingly stressful process extremely enjoyable. This team not just have the 2nd to none local knowledge, but also has the amazing ability to connect. They have the eye to identify the true needs of each groups and finding the best match for them. Because after all, every seller really just need one true buyer. They are hardworking, down to earth, funny and yet professional. When it comes to the time we are on the move again, Vern and Josh would be who are going to sell and buy with.

Thanks Team Vern & Josh (and Plum Property) for helping us to secure our lovely family home in Chapel Hill. Together they helped negotiate all the ins and outs of buying the property and went above and beyond to make the process as seamless as possible. Plus Plum's marketing videos always make us laugh! Thanks Vern & Josh!

Verny is absolutely professional and helpful. His good market knowledge, fantastic communication and negotiation skills led to our successful purchase outcome and eliminated our stress as a first home buyer. We would highly recommend Verny to anyone to sell/purchase their homes.

Vern was exceptional with his professionalism, communication in relation to the property and management of the sale process. Purchasing a property is a stressful experience but Vern made it that much more manageable. We were so impressed with Vern that we have engaged him as an agent to sell our home.

Vern has been an absolute lovely agent to deal with from start to finish. It took us a while (>6 months) to finally decide to put our townhouse on the market. Whilst other agents dropped off once they don't hear back from us, Verny kept in touch with us the whole time to see how we are going and to provide regular updates on the market conditions. Verny went the extra mile (generate ideas, getting quotes to get things fixed, doing some clean up himself) to add value to our property, which eventuated to the sale of our property at a price that we were happy with given the condition of market (Covid !!). If you are after a down to earth and a motivated agent who will get your property sold, we would highly recommend Verny.

The incredible range of skills Vern brought to the table were outstanding. His local knowledge, flexibility and brilliant communication and negotiations skills were all integral to our fantastic sale outcome. We were over the moon with his service and will be recommending him to others to sell their home.

We have now both bought and sold a house through Vern and he is our absolute go-to agent. His service and market knowledge is excellent, with loads of solid tips on how to improve property as well as contacts for outsourcing anything house/sales related. Most of all, Vern has a warm and genuine personality, which made this whole process so much more enjoyable. I can highly recommend him!

From the outset we found dealing with Vern a pleasure . Whether it was his witty banter or informed answers to our questions the process was carried out in a professional manner. Most importantly Vern was easy to deal with and made the stressful process of purchasing a property enjoyable and stress free.

On the day that Queensland and Australian Governments announced the first round of COVID 19-related restrictions, we approached Vern Gilbert and Josh Dawson from Plum Property about listing our residence on the market. The timing for a sale, in our opinion, was inopportune but we had to leave our much-loved home. That night, television channels were broadcasting images of long queues in the streets outside Centrelink Offices. Media commentators were using the terms ‘recession’ and ‘depression’. It was obvious to all parties that the COVID 19-related restrictions would escalate. The economic circumstances generated ramifications for the prospect of a sale and the market price. Nonetheless, exuding optimism, Vern and Josh explained their strategies for marketing, which included staging, an auction, a video, open houses, digital and hard copy promotion and affiliated activities. Vern and Josh, in a round table discussion at our residence, explicitly detailed, explained and provided written documentation for the rationale underpinning the campaign and the costs. The COVID 19 pandemic affected strategies and purchaser psyche. Unexpected confounding variables, beyond anyone’s control, soon appeared. Due to government restrictions, the auction and the champagne evening were cancelled. Our pre-payment for the former was promptly refunded. Two early potential purchasers were concerned by either the prospect of falling real estate prices or loss of employment. Accordingly, Vern’s and Josh resorted to the hard slog of open houses and dialogue. A highly conditional offer, a tribute to Vern and Josh’s patience, persistence and their negotiating and IT skills, emerged at the peak [at the time of writing] of COVID 19 pandemic in Queensland. Settlement eventually materialised. We would describe Plum Property, Josh Dawson and Vern Gilbert as active, comprehensive, informed, professional and realistic. We are very grateful for their services. Harry and Gail.

Vern handled our enquiry with utmost professionalism and was very accommodating to help our buying process.

Vern was very helpful and professional in very trying circumstances, i.e. selling during the lock down. His knowldege of the area is exceptional and he had an excellent rapport with potential buyers.
