This is what it is all about:
When it came to selling our property Greg set out clearly the stages in the process and what we could do to maximise the impact of our property. He kept us informed with regular and timely updates. In spite of no other similar property in our suburb being sold for at least five years, his appraisal of our house was thorough and realistic. He saw the potential, and his reading of the market due to his experience and knowledge of the current situation, realistic in achieving a good result. We only needed to have one exhibition since we received the satisfactory offer within a week.
It has been a pleasure to work with Greg though this process, which is undoubtedly a stressful time. His support and quiet confidence have been wonderful. He is a skilled negotiator and treated his clients, as intelligent adults whose opinions were valuable. Overall it has been a happy and successful relationship. We recommend his services unreservedly.
