Upon deciding that we wanted to sell our house, my wife and I considered what we thought was important in a Real Estate Agent. We wanted personal service, to be regularly informed, reasonable agents fees and to obviously sell our house for the best possible price. Based on these criteria, we felt Brett Johnston Real Estate offered the best option for us. Being a smaller agent, Brett offered a very personal service that made us feel that selling our property was a genuine priority to him. This started with a very fair, reasonable and transparent assessment of the value of our house in the market and where and how we should start the marketing of our property. Brett kept us regularly informed of home open days (as we weren’t living in the house at the time) and the amount and type of traffic through and any other follow ups from home opens.
Once we got to the point of reviewing offers presented, Brett provided very logical and practical advice on negotiations that made us feel that he was committed to getting the best possible outcome for us. With Brett’s assistance, we ended up agreeing on a price that we were happy with, particularly in a depressed market. Following the offer and acceptance process, Brett kept us well informed on the progress through the conditions and the settlement process, right up to settlement.
Upon reflection of our initial expectations, we feel that Brett Johnston exceeded these and would highly recommend his services to anyone considering selling their property.
