Smooth sailing all went exactly how Sue had predicted. I spoke to a few agents prior to appointing Sue. She was upfront and knowledgeable and knew her facts and numbers. She queried me about my expectations and commitment. She was not like the other agents who were desperate for the sale. I recognised this as a sign of an honest, experienced and successful agent. Further, she communicated with tenants and made sure the unit looked impressive for the open house. I recognised that she was really working for my best interests. The unit was sold at a great price within 2 weeks. Wonderful experience

Finally, a truly genuine agent! We cannot rate Sue more highly, not just as an agent, but also as a person. My husband and I owe the purchase of our dream home to Sue without any doubt. Sue's ability to listen and communicate clearly, honestly and promptly with her sellers, made all the difference for us. We will never forget the crucial role Sue played in our lives and we will be forever grateful to her for the purchase of our new home.

Helpful, friendly and patient
As buyers, Sue was a pleasure to deal with. It took several months from first seeing the house to actually buying it. Sue was never pushy but stayed in touch throughout and took the time to build a relationship with us. We appreciated her honesty and her ability to negotiate with us and the sellers to reach a price we were all happy with.

Sue is a delight! Sue has a passion for her work that I've not seen in other agents. She is friendly, available and always happy to answer any questions you have. She is knowledgeable and cares about her clients and their properties. As a first-time homebuyer, I didn't understand a lot of what the process entailed, but Sue made it all so easy and all the more enjoyable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for their first home.
