• Niki & Alan

  "Choosing an agent to sell your biggest asset is done with careful consideration of many factors. We were very impressed through the whole process of purchasing and selling with Quintin and his team, and have recommended them to our friends and neighbours. From his very approachable friendly manner, constant communication, guidance, local market knowledge, to his hustle, work ethic and ability to close, Quintin is exceptional. The backup from his team with all the paperwork, photography, copywriting, market feedback and more was amazing. He came to us with a plan of how to maximise the sales potential of our home, engineered and then completed his plan in 7 days. He is the guy that if needed to get the sale, he will be phoning his team to complete contracts and potential purchasers at 9:30pm. For us, our sale was done and dusted in a week, with 4 offers, two above asking price. You can't ask for better than that. Thank you so much Quintin and the rest of Team Q."

  Never ignores phone calls or emails. Always finds the time to answer any relevant questions.
  No bull shit, straight up and down. And will spend as much time with his clients, as they wish.

He spent a lot of time helping me understand how the market looked at that time, and what I should expect.

  Quintin was awesome to work with!
  Quintin and his team were amazing to work with - they were very efficient and got me a very good price. People who think they can do better without a real estate agent should think again - Quintin knows the market really well and was spot on with his valuation, his marketing, and the way he handled the sale throughout. I got more than what I expected so thank goodness I didn't try and sell it myself! Leave it to an expert like Quintin.

• Lauren & Eric

  Great experience!
  This was our first experience selling a house, and we are very happy with how simple the process was. Both Quintin and Glen provided some excellent advice and options for us, and continually kept us updated throughout the whole process. Would definitely recommend!
