Success Stories
Don’t just take my word for it
“Sarah is amazing, from when I called her on the Monday it only took 3 to 4 days to sell my property. She has done what no other realtor could do in 3 years! I also got more $$ than I could ever expect. She is honest, reliable and very hard working. An old school agent - her word is her bond. She worked tirelessly until after 10 pm on a Saturday night on this deal, I highly recommend her and she will be the only realtor for me now”
Annelien, Gilston Road, Gilston
“From the very first moment I met Sarah I knew she was the person I wanted to my property. This very special and unique home was going to be hard to let go, however Sarah supported us through the entire process, made it simpler and less painful. Sarah brought valuable knowledge of the Gilston area and the broader community, as well her passion for her work, her honesty, professionalism, integrity, dedication and hard work. We would recommend Sarah to any prospective seller. Sarah listened to us, helped us prepare for the most emotional time in our lives and assisted all the way through the process. Sarah delivered more than we could have ever hoped for and genuinely cared about our needs.”
Maree, Prender Court, Gilston
“From the moment we met Sarah at one of her open homes, we knew she was the only agent for us. Sarah was personable, professional, knowledgeable but most importantly; genuine and supportive. We are a young family and with no one around us to reach for guidance, Sarah treated us like one of her own. She responded instantly to every one of our calls or texts and gave us the confidence we needed to bite the bullet and go to market. After only a couple of open homes we received multiple offers above t the asking price, finalising the sale in a short 2 weeks. Sarah then helped advise us on the purchase of our forever home. We are truly grateful, thank you Sar!”
Layla & Chris, Mildura Drive, Helensvale
“Sarah made our selling experience fantastic. She oozed professionalism, knowledge, confidence and understanding. Sarah worked hard to maximise the sale price of our property (which only took 4 days!) while keeping us calm and up to date with every step. I will most certainly use Sarah’s services in the future and I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone needing an agent.”

Not ready to sell yet?
The management of your investment is a huge responsibility and has become a serious business over recent years.
It is no longer as easy as selecting a real estate agency with the cheapest fees.
When considering an agency to take care of your most valuable asset, it makes sense to select a team that has your best interests at heart.
If you are currently a landlord and are unhappy with your current agency, we can help you make the switch.
Each of our offices has a dedicated New Client Manager who will work with you every step of the way.
For most people, owning a residential investment property is the biggest financial investment you can make.
