It is my pleasure to write a reference for Richard Harding and Geoff Smith who recently sold a luxury apartment on my behalf in Mosman. Not being from the area, I canvassed widely the top estate agencies in Mosman (including all the brand names) and interviewed them all prior to awarding the mandate. What made Richard and Geoff stand out was 2 things: firstly, they believed in my property, and the price it could achieve if marketed well, more than any other agent. This, I believe, was based on their detailed understanding of the property, its particularly nuances and the buyer universe it would appeal to. This gave them the confidence to pitch it at the price it deserved rather than pitch it low to draw in the buyers as the other agents, one way and another, all wanted to do. Secondly, they believed in themselves and backed themselves to run a good campaign and find the buyers. As the campaign unfolded they continually kept me informed after each open. Over 3-4 weeks the potential buyer universe ebbed and flowed, with early contenders falling away to be replaced by late potentials only a few days before the auction. Through the ups and downs, they managed the process (and their client) with a steady and assured hand, always providing encouraging, yet realistic, feedback. Come they night, their efforts were richly rewarded when we achieved 6 registered bidders. The property ultimately sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars above the reserve in a hotly contested auction. In hindsight, there is no question that I made the right choice in selecting Richard and Geoff. Im convinced that not just any agent could have achieved the massive outperformance that they did. Next time around, they will without doubt be my go to guys again.
The team of Richard Harding and Julie Holman are the most professional team I have ever come across in real estate sales. They conducted the sale of my property in Northbridge with the highest level of integrity and achieved a great result. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering selling.
Tom and I were very impressed by the efficiency and professional attitude of all the team from start to finish. The appraisal and careful discussions of our options with Richard and Geoff, transparent and honest feed back and then the speed with which the LJ Hooker machine was applied was incredible. From the decision to go to market on Monday afternoon, Sarah had organised photos, video, blurb, plans, building survey and it was on line on Thursday with the first inspection on the Saturday. By the following inspection on Thursday the board was up, it was in the paper with an article on it and the first offer in discussion. A week later and our house was sold. Despite this timescale, we never felt under pressure or rushed in our meetings with Richard, he took time to make sure things were going as expected and dropped by to check. His attention to detail was fantastic. I can't thank you all enough for the care with which you handled our most valuable possession, the patience, experience and knowledge that goes into making it all run smoothly.
Hi Richard and Geoff, Hope you are both well. Bon and I want to thank you both very much and also Chris Sam Sarah and your team for all your support and excellent service in achieving a solid sale for us of Kurraba. When the going got a bit tough, due to the power of all things 4th estate, your focus and determination to secure us the best price in this transitioning market is noted and much appreciated. Thanks for looking after our interests. Very happy to recommend you if ever asked. We wish you all the best for a successful end of year and a lovely Christmas.
