William Purse

Thanks to the whole Suburbia team for a good experience with selling our apartment in a difficult market. Particular shout out to Will who was energetic, extremely responsive and hard working. We felt we were in safe hands and assured that Will was chasing every potential lead. We were happy with the result, particularly in the short time achieved.

Aaron and his assistant, William, did a fine job of marketing my mother's house (deceased estate so it was not a typical sale), using digital marketing techniques (particularly, a well-crafted and detailed video of the house and region) and effectively using social media. They held quite a number of Opens on different days and times to suit potential buyers, and quickly followed up with private viewings where requested. Their effective use of the Homepass electronic system and WhatsApp allowed me to be quickly informed of buyer feedback, which potential buyers were really interested and how they the team were 'hitting the phones' in following up. I was always kept informed as to how things were progressing. What was very critical in my mind was Aaron's negotiating skills in working with potential buyers, particularly in a changing housing market (re. market uncertainty arising from the middle east war and rising domestic interest rates). He clearly knows, as the expression goes, 'when to hold and when to fold' and to take the vendor with him during this critical time in a sale process. The follow-up of Aaron's team after an agreement was reached in doing all the paperwork very quickly was also much appreciated. All-in-all, a very efficient and effective sales process, which highlighted to me that you need not engage some of the bigger agencies (which I have usually done in past house sales and purchasers), and that a smaller, boutique agency that is well motivated can be very effective. I would recommend Aaron and the team at Suburbia.

I recently sold my home in Canberra through Will and the team from Suburbian, and the result was exceptional. They achieved an unconditional auction sale in just 15 days, at a price higher than market expectations. Their strategy was precise and effective—from pricing guidance to marketing and auction management. The team generated strong buyer competition in a very short time, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. A special mention goes to their incredible responsiveness—the team works around the clock, updating and communicating as closely as Canberra drivers tailgate. That 24/7 dedication made all the difference.

Will was great to work with and we first meet him, while we were looking for our new home. Will is quick to reply and keep you updated throughout the sale process, and the end result exceeded our expectations and I highly recommend Will.

Thank you so much to Will for contributing to the wonderful journey of searching to buying. Will happily arranged multiple time slots for me to be able to view my new home on various occasions. Will was punctual, friendly and knowledgeable about the location.

I met Mark and Will at a property inspection around Oct 2024. I'd mentioned as part of buying a property I'd need to sell my apartment. I didn't wind up buying the property we met at, but we did organise for them to sell the apartment when the time came. Mark very graciously offered to check properties my partner and I were looking into, to make sure the prices were within reason, and even helped us in negotiation. What convinced me to sign on was I liked the cut of his jib and, I'm aware this sounds insane, he and his offsider William were the only estate agents we spoke to our cat didn't hiss at. When the time came to sell the apartment, Mark called upon his array of contacts to help get our apartment in ship-shape for sale. It saved my partner and I having to vet contractors, and the ones we met could not speak highly enough of Suburbia. Mark, and his wonderful team, kept my partner and I up to date with the comings and goings of the apartment, and got us to the figure we hoped for. I want to make a special shout out to Jas and Meg.
