He was always prompt in replying to my messages and returning phone calls and always kept me informed. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he was always happy to help with any questions I had.

Sold $635,000

Steve was a fantastic agent who we couldn’t fault. His communication was outstanding and his local knowledge really helped achieve an outstanding result. Steve remained in touch weekly for 6 months while we searched for our next home. We had no doubt in our minds we had chosen the best agent for the sale of our home. We found Steve to be very accommodating and very thoughtful (he even bought our son a birthday present!). We enjoyed Steve’s professionalism as well as his light hearted side. With our tight deadlines, Steve managed to sell our home in the first week, the result he achieved for us was above and beyond our expectations which shows what a great agent he truly is. We would have no hesitation in recommending Steve to anyone who is about to embark on the journey of selling their home.

“Beyond the expected”, a phrase which is testimony to Matt’s character, a true professional, who is credit to his team, his family and himself. Matt’s courteous, pleasant, friendly nature, along with his willingness to help and positive outlook is only superseded by his professionalism. During a difficult time for my family, Matt’s friendly and understanding manner ensured a stressful period was in fact a positive experience. For this I truly thank you. I would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to anyone wishing to buy or sell as his service is truly “beyond the expected”.
