I just wanted to write and say a big thank you; once again for the advice you have given Raine and myself over the years. Returning from the U. K. was never going to be easy and quite the minefield with bullish service from real-estate agents and no client management skills and many without the knowledge of the area you have no doubt have. Not only did you handle our inquiry well you also managed to negotiate us to and beyond our budget at the time in the most pleasant way. Since then sound professional advice has been offered with a fantastic service in regarding purchasing .The property you gave us direction to suited our budget, but quite frankly handled by an agent who didn’t care or work in the vendors favour. The growth we have experienced due to your advice has been second to none and allowed us to make other capital and real estate purchases. Thank you once again for your assistance and help with our real estate needs in the Australian market.
We just wanted to drop you a note and say thank you for the extra miles you ran in order to satisfy our wish list. As you know we have been living in Annandale for over ten years and have had the entire inner west real estate population knock, call and even catch us in the street to present their ‘clients interest ‘ in our home. Your comprehensive analysis of the area and vast experience in how to market a property is unique , it sets you apart from your rivals, and one which we know will result in a record price and hopefully a streamlined process. We wish you all the very best in your career, and congratulations again on your new baby.
I can't speak highly enough of Alister. I knew from the moment he hand delivered the marketing package to my office that I had a sales man that was really going to work in my best interests. Alister works diligently and calmly and clearly knows what he is doing. He keeps in regular contact and nothing is too much for him to assist in the sale of your property. I had every faith that I was going to get my ball park price and was completely calm throughout the whole process. Alister has exceptional people skills and I exchanged contracts in six weeks. I am very happy to recommend Alister to family, friends and others and would engage Alister to act on my behalf again if and when the need arises.
I would like to say thank you again regarding the sale of my apartment. As other agents were only forecasting 580K you were able to deliver an over market price of 600K. All the other sales in Rhodes House have not really exceeded the 575K mark yet with your strategy, energy and professional advice you definitely delivered a record price! Many thanks again and I look forward to dealing with you again.
It has been a pleasure to do business with Alister Barrett from McGrath Leichhardt. The sale of my home in Stanmore was made effortless with Alister's guidance and the superb marketing and service from McGrath. Alister is a highly informed professional who was respectful and encouraging throughout the process of my house sale. He is extremely personable and attentive to my specific needs as a client. I am very happy with the outcome of my sale and have no hesitation in recommending Alister or McGrath agents.
As a Solicitor practicing for over 13 years I have dealt with many real estate agents in Sydney in all market conditions. What I appreciate is an agent that deals with the Vendor and the Purchaser with transparency, thus ultimately making the clients life easier in what could be an otherwise stressful situation. Alister Barrett, with McGrath Inner West is such an agent. Alister is aware of the ever changing market factors and the significance of making huge financial decisions associated with buying and selling property. Alister’s experience in dealing with residential and commercial property means he has the expertise to streamline the sale process and is aware of the issues to address. Being in real estate for over 25 years means that Alister has a good grasp on the contractual implications associated with property and strata issues. With this in mind I have watched Alister successfully negotiate good results for his vendors. He knows how to manage contractual issues and achieve top end prices for his vendors. Solicitors deal with agents every day in the course of buying and selling property. I can say that when I see a contract that Alister is involved with, I feel comfortable knowing that he understands what needs to be done to make his clients sale move as smoothly as possible.
I just wanted to say thank you for all you help with regard to the sale of my property in Annandale. Your unwavering support and professional approach led to a smooth transition from beginning to end at auction. You seem to have a great understanding and knowledge of the inner west market and your friendly and helpful attitude was both welcomed and appreciated. I can highly recommend McGrath and yourself to any potential clients.
Thank you for your professionalism and experience you so clearly demonstrated in my recent campaign. It was all a very new experience for me and having you as my agent ensured it all went so smoothly and the end result was exactly what I had wanted ,both price and purchaser ! I leave my beautiful little home in good hands. Thankyou also for your patience in responding to each and every one of my frequent emails and helping with furniture etc. both before and after the campaign. I expect you will become the favourite agent for both Annandale vendors (and purchasers) before long and you deserve to.
Just a note to thank you for the fine work you did in selling my property in Taylor St, Annandale. I greatly appreciate the energy and expertise you brought to the marketing of my home. Clearly you understood the nature of the property, my requirements as a vendor and the market segment that would see the merits and possibilities of the place. Your price range estimates were accurate and the price you achieved was within this range. The property had been with a number of other agents, and to my disappointment they did not demonstrate the skill, persistence or professionalism you brought to the task. Furthermore, I value the ethics you demonstrated in presenting the property ‘honestly’. My best wishes for the future and if I am again in need of an agent, I will be on your doorstep.
Having begun our house search more than 18 months ago we happen to have met Alister at the door of a property in Stanmore quite by accident. I might add we were quite jaded at this point with the whole process of searching, being outbid by high auction prices and serious under quoting by other agents. So it was a lovely surprise to find an agent who was amiable, genuine and knew a great deal about the market and our particular property because of his wealth of experience. He was never pushy or arrogant. Having met most of the agents in the local area from open houses, auctions and dealings with friends and family who have bought and sold, Alister is one of the best in our view. He was realistic about potential buyers, pricing and the expectations of the marketing campaign as well as the pros and cons of our property which potential buyers might raise. As we all know there are no guarantees in the property game, but we felt reassured by Alister’s knowledge, wealth of experience and human touch throughout the whole process which gave us the utmost confidence in him. What we particularly liked was the fact that he was flexible with the decision making along the way, understood what needed to be done for the viewings and consulted us after each open house as to potential buyers and feedback. This open mindedness, steadfastness and ability to communicate really aided us in our decision making. We certainly would recommend him to any buyer or seller as an honest, decent and experienced agent with the added bonus of having a great sense of humour even under trying conditions!
