Fantastic experience purchasing our property with Aris and the team. Professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. Made everything smooth and stress‑free. Highly recommended.

We acted as executors for my uncles estate and engaged with various estate agents from around the area. Neither my cousin or myself are from the area and needed to rely on an agent that we felt would be less about flashy real estate carry on and more about a personal and considerate approach to selling my uncles pride and joy. Both Tina and Aris impressed me from the first meeting as they were the ONLY agents that listened to what we wanted and were empathetic to the charitable side of my uncles wishes. With a very challenging set of circumstances facing the Sydney property market, they were able to zero in on a couple of potential buyers and the property was sold approx 4 weeks prior to auction. We are very happy with the overall experience and the property went for a very fair and reasonable price.

After meeting with 3 agents, Filippo was the obvious choice to sell our 2-bed semi in Marrickville. He was knowledgeable about the market, had a competitive commission, but most important to us was that he is a warm and genuine person, particularly valuable for our likely market of first-home buyers. He advised us at each step of the sale process, didn’t overly burden us with staging given we would still be living in the property with a young baby, and got us a great price after only a week on the market. A fantastic agent who we would highly recommend.

Tina and her colleagues Sophia and Christian have been excellent to work with as buyers throughout our purchase. They were courteous and very helpful to us as buyers, and achieved a result that all parties were happy with. They have also been very responsive and helpful post-exchange. I would highly recommend working with this team

Xavier was very thorough and patient throughout a difficult sale . He worked very hard from start to finish to get it over the line and communicated well throughout .

Denny was always available and gave much time to explaining the market and where I stood within it. He communicated clearly and often and worked tirelessly to get me the best price that he could in this difficult market. Nothing but praise for him and his team.

Selling a property in the current market comes with a lot of uncertainty, particularly with rising interest rates and broader domestic and offshore economic pressures. Throughout the entire campaign, Xavier’s understanding of the market, buyer behaviour and strategy was exceptional. What stood out most was his calm, clear and pragmatic approach. He consistently managed my concerns — often multiple times a day — with patience, honesty and professionalism. On the days where I felt overwhelmed or uncertain, Xavier remained steady, reassuring and solutions-focused, while always keeping me informed and managing expectations realistically. His ability to balance empathy with honest advice made an incredibly stressful process feel far more manageable. Even when we lost our strongest purchaser on the morning of the auction, Xavier handled the situation seamlessly and still delivered an outstanding result later that day. What also makes Xavier and the team different is that they genuinely know the Inner West — because it’s their home too. They understand the community, the people and the nuances of each pocket and street. There’s an authenticity and local knowledge that simply can’t be manufactured. They don’t just sell property — they take the time to understand your personal situation and guide you towards the right outcome. True professionals and, quite honestly, all-round geniuses at what they do. If you’re buying or selling in the Inner West, look no further than Xavier, Filippo and the team at Raine & Horne Marrickville and Dulwich Hill. A genuine thank you to Xavier for the outstanding result. I’m truly grateful and honestly didn’t expect such a fantastic outcome!

Norman was very responsive, patient and accessible. He had excellent knowledge of the suburb and the market and was fantastic all round.

I worked with a number of agents in my property search and Xavier was by far the best of them all. He understood what I was after and worked hard to locate it. He and the other staff of Raine & Horne made the whole experience both easy and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Xavier and Raine & Horne in your property search.

Knew the market well and kept me updated on all aspects of the sale. No pressure to make decisions regarding sale and acted professionally throughout the whole experience. Listened if I had concerns. Would recommend to others wanting to sell their property.
