The process was clear and easy

Selling our long‑held family home as part of an estate was always going to be emotional and complex, so choosing the right agent mattered a lot. We spoke with several agencies, compared fee structures and marketing strategies, and ultimately chose Rachel Lawrie, at Stadium Real Estate, because of her clear, data‑driven approach and performance‑based commission structure that aligned her interests with ours. From the start, Rachel’s campaign was thoroughly planned and very well executed. The marketing across the major portals and other channels generated strong enquiry and excellent numbers through the opens. By auction night there were 25 registered bidders and more than 80 bids before the hammer fell, which translated into a final sale price that far exceeded our expectations and appears to set a benchmark result for the area. Communication throughout was excellent. Rachel and her assistant, Kashalia, provided regular written updates with hard numbers, honest feedback from buyers, and clear recommendations on pricing, reserve setting, deposit and settlement terms. Rachel also worked seamlessly with our conveyancer and was flexible in accommodating the particular needs of an estate sale, including remote family members joining by video and the separate sale or retention of furniture, while still ensuring vacant possession by settlement. On a personal level, Rachel combined high energy and negotiation skill with genuine empathy. She understood that this was not just a transaction but the sale of a much‑loved family home, and she and Kashalia handled the process with sensitivity and professionalism from start to finish. Overall, we feel we “hit the ball out of the park” with the result and are very glad we put our trust in Rachel and the Stadium Real Estate team. I would have no hesitation recommending Rachel to others looking to sell, particularly where a premium outcome and strong communication are important.

I recently sold my property with the help of Karl at 1840 Real Estate, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Karl was extremely helpful throughout the entire process - clear in his communication, knowledgeable about the market, and always available to answer any questions I had. His guidance and professionalism made the process smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend 1840 Real Estate not only for selling a property but also for their excellent ongoing property management services. I look forward to keeping in touch with Karl and the team for any future real estate needs. He has already gone above and beyond, offering valuable advice for any future property purchases. Thanks again!
