Von presents a very positive and enthusiastic personality that engages and encourages the client to expect a good outcome. Her enthusiasm is infectious. Some clients could find that their expectations may not be met as their exuberance could overcome a natural reticence to be more cautious. One limiting factor in working with Von is a deficiency in time management. Our experience was that she was frequently late for appointments and that this cascaded across her working day.

We had been through a protracted marketing campaign with another agent with some interest but with offers below the true value our beautiful 3 year old home. After 3 months it was decision time and we chose to change agents as we believed everything else had been tried. This wasn't easy as the former agent was also a friend making this a difficult decision. We chose Von over 2 other well known agents based on her vibrant and enthusiastic approach and we weren't disappointed as she proved to be a bundle of positive energy in her application to the task. It was a tough challenge in an unusual market but through her tenacity and unrelenting positive interaction with us as well as potential buyers, she won out in the end. We would have no hesitation in recommending Von to any seller as she is obviously passionate about what she does and is 100% supportive of her sellers and always looking for the most effective ways to obtain the desired outcome.

Von, we so appreciate your effort in making our dream a reality. We are so happy with our new family home and know that it was only made possible because of you. Thanks for your honesty and professionalism but most notably your friendly manner in allowing us to buy our new home! Michael and Sarah

We had a very positive buyer experience with Von. She and her team were very professional, honest and responsive to all queries, and have continued to be great with communication post-purchase. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Von, and should we buy or sell again, would be very happy to use her services once more. Thank you!

What a pleasure it has been working with you on the purchase of our new property at 65 Cedar Street Greenslopes. You & your team have been professional, polite and always happy to assist. You have made what can be a stressful time, enjoyable and without incident from our regard. I would (& will) recommend you to friends and colleagues looking to purchase or to sell their property. Thanks again for your time, efforts and affable nature which is always greatly appreciated. Here’s to many happy years in our new home!

Von and her selling manager Cherie are really lovely people and very enthusiastic. They made every effort, and I mean every effort, to assist me in all aspects of my purchase of this property. I was so happy with both Von and Cherie and see them as good friends that you can always count upon. They always went that extra step to help me overcome all the hurdles that were placed in my way. I intend to use Von and her team for all my property needs in the future.

It has been several weeks since we finalised but I do not want to miss the chance to recommend Von Barnes to anyone thinking of buying or selling a property. Von kept in contact with us during the whole process. Even after purchase was finalised Von was still there with support with contact details for renovators. Congratulation Von keep up the good work. Debra & Bruce Squelch

Von and her team were a pleasure to deal with. Von sold my house quickly for the price I wanted and there were no hassles. The photos were beautiful and the marketing was expertly done. Von is knowledgable, personable and hard working. She was always available to answer my questions and she went above and beyond to ensure the sale went smoothly. I couldn't be happier!

My husband and I are very pleased with the outstanding work of Von Barnes and her team at Calibre Real Estate. For many years we have approached various agents to sell our 2 blocks of land and over and over again we have been disappointed, the land had been listed (presumably) but not one offer was received and we had no communication from the agents on what was happening after the initial contact. Von kept us up to date, we received a report each week, and there was interest in the listings from the beginning. Within the year our land was sold and we thank Von and her team for their perseverance and enthusiasm in getting us the best price possible. We sincerely recommend Von to anybody who wishes to buy or sell property. Ezio & Mina Scodellaro

I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COINCIDENCE AND THAT VON WAS SENT TO US WITH A PURPOSE AND A PASSION FOR SELLING OUR HOME. VON WENT WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND EXPECTATIONS AND THIS IS WHAT DEFINITELY SETS HER APART FROM THE REST. VON WAS SENSITIVE AND UNDERSTANDING TO OUR NEEDS AND AS A RESULT WE HAD THE PERFECT SALE AND SETTLEMENT FOR OUR PROPERTY. I WILL ALWAYS BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO RECOMMEND HER TO ANY PROSPECTIVE SELLER AND HER HONESTY AND INTEGRITY IS BEYOND REPROACH. THANKYOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND YES WE THINK THAT CAPE YOU WEAR IS APPROPRIATE SUPER SALES WOMAN.

WOW, what an exceptional service and sales agent is Von Barnes. We were referred to her by another very happy customer after our first agent really let us down. We wish we had asked her first! Well Von with her lovely team Cherie and Leah loved our house into a sale. She is the most dedicated sales agent we could have imagined. It was more like a match made in heaven (yes I mean it…. really!) as our buyers are equally as happy. What we advice about Von Barne's 1. Von Barnes should be first agent onto your ‘my chosen agent’ list, 2. Von Barnes personalises her involvement so that she genuinely desires to sell your house at the best price possible. She truly never gives up, 3. Von has an instinct for how the house will sell and is as strategic as she says that she is, 4. Von is truly interested in the needs of her customers, for instance at one point when we couldn’t be home she fed my daughters cat! (to name only one such action on her part), 5. Von has a team in Leah and Cherie who add many additional hours and service to the overall dedication put into the sales activities already by Von herself. thank you so very much We are the Von and team Von fans Shayne Bronwyn and Rachael

It was a pleasure working with Von to sell our home. Von went out of her way to do the little things that made the difference. Despite the fact we didn't achieve the sale price we wanted and knew the market should pay (based on past results) Von acted professionally, kept us informed and went well out of her way to support us, look after us and get the best price possible at that time.
