Latest reviews in Essendon
Frank Dowling Real Estate lived up to their very good reputation
His communication was always quick and clear and his experience really showed throughout the process. He was great at keeping everything moving and helping us navigate the finer details to get the deal done. A genuine professional and someone we’d happily work with again.
Georgie was thoroughly professional, efficient, positive and very pleasant to deal with.
I bought this property from him and then 19 years later hired him to sell it. Very professional approach for both buyers and sellers.
Tom had great knowledge of the area, and price trends in the area
Had an exceptional experience working with Alex on a property purchase. Extremely impressed with his knowledge of the market. Appreciated his open and personable customer service, and his unwavering commitment to resolving my enquiries with the utmost professionalism and proactiveness.
It was actually Jane who sold my property, not Joel :). Anyway, after looking at alternate agents, Jane's confidence was the telling factor. Although we had an off-market sale fall though, Jane rebounded and within 2 weeks the property was sold for a higher amount. A local agent with a great attitude. Many Thanks Jane!!
I chose Julia because l wanted a personalised approach and l got it. Julia's communication skills are impeccable and her expertise in the market was invaluable. Her efficiency and energy throughout the entire process made for an excellent agent . It was a pleasure to work collaboratively with Julia and l will strongly recommend her to family and friends.
Tom was professional, friendly, responsive and easy to deal with. Communication was always prompt and I was grateful for his calm and concise manner. The team of Julia and Tom worked in unison and diligently supported me throughout the entire process. Thanks Tom for your attention to detail.
Julia was very helpful, especially during the auction. We trust this agency and would recommend her.

With our verification process, you can trust that the experiences shared are real, reliable, and helpful.
Integrity is at the core of what we do.

Transparency and fairness are core to how RateMyAgent works. While it’s sometimes assumed that only positive reviews appear on our platform, that’s not the case.
