Belinda was fantastic every step of the way. She is organised and driven and would make any seller feel comfortable. She is prompt and on time. Belinda secured a fantastic result, and we really enjoyed the client experience.
Richard and his team made the process of selling my house smooth and stress-free from start to finish. He was professional, responsive, and kept me informed at every stage. His knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and strong communication helped achieve a great result. I highly recommend Richard to anyone looking to sell their property.
Andrew was a pleasure to work with. He wad professional, personable and caring. We felt valued and reassured at all times and we highly recommend hiss services. The team, including Zac and Charline, provided regular updates prior to and during the sales campaign and were readily available to answer any of our queries. They were outstanding in their support of our family, and their knowledge of their industry.
We selected Mark of CobdenHayson because they were the most professional firm we considered, and that was amply justified by the way he handled the sale. At every step in the process, we received sensible, objective and well-reasoned advice, which ultimately led to a successful sale. Throughout Mark (and his colleagues) were pleasant to deal with, communicated extremely well, and clearly had a detailed knowledge of the market and how best to present our property. At all times they kept us updated and adopted a positive and helpful attitude. Extremely satisfied with the service, would definitely use again and would highly recommend.
Selling our home felt like a huge process, but from the very beginning Andrew and team made it feel manageable. They were honest, approachable and always kept us informed, which gave us a lot of confidence throughout the campaign. Their advice on preparing the property for sale was spot on, and the communication was excellent. We never had to chase for updates—they were always one step ahead and happy to answer any questions we had. What impressed us most was how genuinely invested they were in getting the best result for us. It never felt like we were just another listing. Their professionalism, local knowledge and negotiation skills really showed, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We’d happily recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home. It was a great experience from start to finish, and we’re very grateful for all their hard work.
Andrew was a pleasure to deal with throughout the purchasing process. He was professional, transparent, and communicative every step of the way, ensuring a smooth experience for both his vendors and us as the buyers' agents. It's always great working with an agent who values collaboration and achieves the best outcome for everyone involved. We'd happily recommend Andrew and look forward to working together again.
Lynsey is an experienced agent who could appreciate the property and how to market to the right people. She was succinct but kept me well informed and was a nice person to deal with.
Wonderful communication and support throughout an extremely accelerated sales process.
We are both early 60s and were nervous about the large decision on selling our family home and then buying in a new area for us. We immediately loved this place but need to sell first to know if we could be in the market. Mark was immediately attentive, informative and encouraging even though we may not have been able to be genuine buyers. Once we sold, he continued in that vein, available but not pushy. His style really helped us work through and make our decision and our offers in our own time. We have also appreciated his service and support since the immediate sale was made. His professionalism has been first class. He of course represents the vendor but brings with that a really good balance of working with us, the buyers. He and Liz work really well together which means one is always available
We had a great experience selling our apartment with Mark and Liz at Cobden & Hayson. As we were interstate for most of the campaign they managed everything from property preparation, styling and staging through to buyer feedback and regular updates, making the process seamless and stress-free. Together, Mark and Liz worked as a highly effective team and guided us through every step of the sale. Their local market knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail were excellent. They were always realistic, proactive and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for us. We were extremely pleased with both the process and the result, and would highly recommend Mark,Liz and the Cobden & Hayson team to anyone considering selling their property.
