Timing is everything – as they say – and for those selling, or about to sell their houses, this year the COVID-19 pandemic raised a unique set of challenges. Should you keep it on the market, or take a break and wait until later in the year? If you choose to sell now, open homes and auctions are allowed so at least that part is easy.

Andrew gave us honest feedback and recommended a sale price that was achievable. He did not overprice, set an unattainable range and brought the right people through the property that had a need for all it had to offer. Property sold in 4 weeks. About to list another property with him as we have so much faith in him and we know he does the right thing by vendor and purchaser. Would not hesitate to recommend. Jodie & Paul
Helpful and knowledgable, making for a very smooth and easy process Throughout the whole process, Rob demonstrated great knowledge, patience and ensured we were able to maximise the selling price of our home. Rob's initial meeting with us identified areas to improve within the house prior to going on the market. This proved to be the key in ensuring we achieved an offer which exceeded our expectations. Rob was honest and helpful, especially with us both who were relatively new to the house selling process. He took the time to go through each step and ensured we were satisfied with everything. Rob suggested local tradespeople to get quotes from, and those people were also helpful to make the necessary changes in a timely fashion. From the time our house went on the market, to 8 days later when we accepted the offer, our nerves were kept at ease by Rob who ensured the process went smoothly. We are grateful for the support from Rob and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who is looking to get into the housing game.
