We have just completed the sale of a second property with John and Olivia and team. They are always professional and in communication letting us know how things are progressing. I highly recommend John and his team is you are selling.
Josie Galati, did a fantastic job selling our unit. She gave us a realistic valuation based on true local data instead of inflating the price just to win our business. Her marketing strategy and communication kept us informed at every step, and her strong negotiation skills secured a great result above our expectations. We felt supported the entire time and gladly recommend her to anyone selling a property.
The initial proposal submitted was not correct in that the valuation range quoted did not end up reflecting reality, a difference of about $200,000.00 (ie 15.4%). The quoted range needed to be reduced on a number of occasions so as to attract attention. When the quoted range was last altered downwards, market traction was achieved and the property was eventually sold. All other services including advice, negotiations and communications between vendor and agent were excellent.
Gavin and HockingStuart Preston have been fantastic in supporting my sale of my house, and getting me a great outcome. Gavin’s advice and suggestions on preparing for the openings and best path to the sale was instrumental in getting the best outcome and in a timely manner too. Thank you. Would told recommend Gavin to manage any sale.
George has excellent market knowledge and 100% commitment to achieving a great outcome – whatever it takes! He worked really hard on this challenging sale, digging deep and staying the course to get it over the line for us. He and Christina an absolute powerhouse, really appreciate the time they took to get to know us and their positive attitude. It was enjoyable and ultimately, rewarding. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
Gavin was so kind and patient with me through the whole house buying process, super knowledgeable and answered all my questions very capably. He checked in with me regularly and the first experience buying a home was so smooth because of it!
I couldn’t be happier with the service Ian provided throughout the entire process. He was professional, knowledgeable, responsive and always kept me informed. What really stood out was his communication and willingness to go above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. I would have no hesitation recommending Ian to anyone looking for a reliable and professional real estate agent. Thanks again for all your hard work, Ian — it was a pleasure dealing with you. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We could not be happier with the service we received from Josie, Frank and Joe from the Preston/Reservoir branch. They were personable, professional, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the entire campaign. Their communication was excellent, keeping us informed every step of the way. They worked hard to achieve the best possible result and their professionalism on auction day was outstanding. Selling our family home was an emotional experience, and we truly appreciated their understanding and dedication. We are delighted with the result and would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone looking for a hardworking and professional team. Many thanks again to you all, Mary, Grace, Lina and Lucy
