Jesse was transparent in all dealings and negotiations with initial inquiries and later decision-making. This was extremely helpful in identifying the true value of properties of interest and whether it was suitable to progress with negotiations.
Laura Strong and the Strong Property team were proactive throughout the sale of my property. They communicated clearly, delivered on their commitments, and kept me informed at every stage of the process. Their ability to work effectively with property managers, tenants, and prospective buyers ensured a smooth transaction and a positive outcome for all parties involved.
Tori kept constant communication despite some difficulty due to me being overseas. She was also extremely respectful to me and my partner during the open. She was also very knowledgeable about the property, the strata and any ongoing situations within the building which is a fresh change from asking an agent a question and being met with a confused look.
I had a great experience with Jon from Arnold Property throughout the process of purchasing my apartment. Although I wasn’t successful with the property initially, Jon kindly got back in touch when the other purchase fell through, which ultimately gave me the opportunity to secure the apartment. Throughout the process, Jon was responsive to my calls and emails and provided helpful guidance along the way, making the purchasing process much easier to navigate. I really appreciated the communication, support and follow-up, and would happily recommend Jon and Arnold Property to anyone looking to buy a property.
We had a great experience working with Luke. Selling in a challenging market wasn't easy, but his experience, persistence and practical approach got us across the line. He was always upfront, easy to deal with and gave us honest, objective advice rather than just telling us what we wanted to hear. He worked hard chasing every lead, was a great negotiator and, importantly, took the stress out of dealing with potential buyers by managing all the back and forth for us. We really appreciated his no-nonsense approach, professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile. Would happily recommend him to anyone looking to sell!
Both while managing agent for our rental and during the sale process Michael was very knowledgeable. He seemed to have a handle on the local market and a back catalogue of potential buyers. Very easy to communicate with and able to assist at every turn, even sourcing quotes for staging our property professionally. He managed a speedy sale and achieved a very acceptable price.
Michael sold our unit and achieved a good price in what was a very difficult market. He was very knowledgeable regarding pricing and strategy and communicated with us every step of the way.
Luke really went above and beyond for us navigating a difficult market as well as difficult buyers. Luke really put in an extra effort and insured us an outstanding result. It really gave us peace of mind having Luke as our agent with his excellent communication market insight and availability assured us an outstanding result thanks Luke and the team.
I have bought and sold numerous properties in Sydney, Newcastle and Maitland over many years. Julie is easily the best agent I have ever dealt with as a vendor. Her communication skills, knowledge of the market and degree of professionalism is second to none. We were communicating daily and I always felt I was part of the loop and being properly updated. The property I was selling was a bit tricky, but it was Julie’s superior sales management and stewardship that ensured a successful sales process. Thank you again Julie!
