Agencies in Thornbury, VIC, 3071

I had never owned property in Australia and when I was approached by Michael who advised that the owners of my current rental was looking to sell, I recognised what a great opportunity it was but I was simultaneously very nervous and overwhelmed not having any experience or real knowledge of the process. Luckily, Michael was readily available and happy to answer any questions that I had. I found Michael really down to earth and knowledgeable and he managed to negotiate a price which both myself and the owners felt happy with. A win - win situation and I honestly feel really lucky and grateful for Michael’s support. Can highly recommend!

Michael sold us our property back in 2017, and has been connected with us throughout the years we lived in the property. He supported us with the process of renting it out, and recently sold the property for us! He was fantastic in his open communication and responsiveness. We felt very supported by Michael throughout the many stages of our journey over almost a decade. Thanks so much Michael!

We had a great experience working with Janelle and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. From the very beginning, she was upfront and honest about what it would take to achieve a strong result. Her advice was clear, practical, and easy to trust, which made a big difference early on. Throughout the campaign, Janelle kept us in the loop after every open, sharing genuine feedback and giving us a clear sense of where things stood. In the lead-up to the auction, she made sure we understood exactly how many serious buyers we had and what to expect, which really helped take the guesswork (and a lot of the stress) out of the process. What stood out most was how reliable and genuine she was. We always felt like she had our best interests at heart, and that gave us a lot of confidence during what can be a pretty overwhelming time. We’re really grateful for her support and would happily recommend Janelle to anyone looking to sell.

We first met John in 2022 when we were buying, and were immediately struck by his energy and how genuine he is. So when it came time to sell the choice was easy!! John worked incredibly hard for us. He understood our apartment, saw its potential, and found the right buyer who'll love it as we did. His local knowledge is also second to none, which showed in the result and we also loved that he uses local tradies, stylists and cleaners - John's authentically inner north and genuinely cares about this community. John took care of everything and kept us updated every step of the way, making the whole process feel reassuring rather than stressful. We'd recommend John to anyone (and already have!!)!

John worked very hard to make things happen quickly for my apartment sale, he was honest, fair and determined through the process, and I would highly recommend him. Plus we had some good laughs along the way!

John approached the sale of this property with great care and put in extra effort to ensure maximum sale price. A flawless experience.

Leon stood out for his honesty, market knowledge, communication & a drive to achieve the best result possible. I am more than happy & satisfied with his results as I've given him the task to sell 2 of my apartments and now a third as well. I cannot recommend him high enough. Do yourselves a favour and give him a call if you are thinking of selling.

Leon Phillips collaborated effectively with our family to sell our family home. He was engaging, honest, and persistent in his efforts, leading to a excellent outcome in accordance with the current market conditions. I highly recommend Leon!

George, Christina and their team did an amazing job in getting the house on the market. They also managed to sell the house prior to auction. In all my dealings with them, they were always professional and down to earth.

George and Christina were very professional in keeping us informed of the trends in the market.

Was knowledgable about the prpoerty, as well as warm and inviting, remembered my name from multiple visits

Josie and the team were outstanding. Professional, respectful and very easy to deal with. Absolute pleasure to deal with and we were in amazing hands from the start right until the end of the process.
