Julia was very helpful, especially during the auction. We trust this agency and would recommend her.
Great service and knowledge
Professional and responsive, very easy to deal with
Andrew did an excellent job building interest and getting to a price we were very satisfied with in a tough market
Alex and the team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They made it super easy to purchase the property. Always available to take a call and help wherever needed. Highly reccomend using Alex and the team if you’re looking to buy or sell a property.
Georgie made the whole buying process so easy from start to finish. Always reliable, approachable, and a pleasure to deal with. Nothing was ever too much trouble. What really stood out was her personality. She has a great sense of humour, is genuinely down-to-earth, and is simply a lovely person. In an industry where some people can come across as a little pretentious or self-important, she was refreshingly genuine, honest & easy to talk to whilst also professional & knowledgeable. Thx Georgie!
Joe’s real estate knowledge is second to none and knows the area so well. He is extremely professional and has extensive experience selling in our area. He was fantastic to deal with.
Georgie was amazing, excellent knowledge of the market and excellent customer service. She was friendly and easy to deal with.
Nicholas is one of the endangered species of people that conduct themselves with integrity, manners, and doing extra things that he doesn't necessarily have to do, in the interests of getting the overall job done and property handed over to a happy buyer. During our purchase, there were a couple of occasions that required "someone" to nip around and check on extra things at the property, and Nicholas immediately nominated himself as that someone, and reported back thereafter. Little things like nipping over to check hot water was heating up after connection of services. Such things mean that when you arrive to do pre-settlement inspection, you will be able to see hot water and heating working for yourself, rather than realising a pilot light has gone out and needs to be re-lit and then wait for hours for the water to heat up. Or worse... that your electricity and gas hasn't been connected at all by your service provider. The fact Nicholas was happy to check these things had been done so that we would know pre-settlement inspection could be completed properly (checking appliances, heating/cooling and hot water) is appreciated and makes such a difference towards a smooth transaction and making everyone's lives easier. From start to finish, Nicholas has been such a pleasant person to purchase from, and I look forward to doing so again. Thankyou Nicholas!
She made you feel like she understood any concerns you may have during the sale period, and was easy to communicate with. Nothing was a bother and she always kept you in the loop. She showed a fantastic knowledge of the property market at time.
