Philip Harvey - Group Principal

Dear Philip Harvey

 

 "Phil, selling one's home of 21 years and a major asset is a very emotional experience and we did appreciate being kept full informed each step of the way."

 

Dear Phil Harvey & Dominic Smith

 

 "Just a short note to say what a great job in selling our unit and in particular we would like to thank Dominic who worked very hard and 'till all hours to achieve a very effective result for us. We knew he would get the job done as we had seen him previously selling other unit in this block. Please forward this note to Dominic as he deserves every acknowledgement for a job well done!."

 

Dear Philip Harvey & Dominic Smith

 

 "Phil, all your staff was friendly, courteous and very professional. Dominic did an excellent job and was a pleasure to deal with, in fact we had a lot of fun as well as complete the serious side and finally come up with an excellent price."

 

Dear Philip Harvey

 

 "Phil, we are writing to express our sincere gratitude to your organization in the recent purchase and then sale of our home. We found your company to be an absolute delight to deal with and thank you and your staff in facilitating our move."

 

Dear Philip Harvey & Paul Diks

 

 "We chose Northlink First National not only because of their continuing sponsorship for the St Ives Bowling Club, but also because of their professional submission and valuation of the property which they achieved at the higher end. Paul Diks handled the sale and we could not fault his professional approach to the job at hand. He is good!!" Mr Such.

Paul Diks - Sales Manager

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "Just a quick note to express our sincere thanks for the outstanding job you did on the sale of our property. Jo and I were obviously concerned about how difficult if would be to both prepare the house for sale and engage in the sale process given we both living overseas. The service you provided in helping prepare the house for sale was outstanding and without your coordination of all the necessary trades people and advice on what work needed completing, I doubt we would have achieved the same sales result. It was very pleasing when you delivered a sale price at the high end of the range you gave us, that was above our expectations and certainly above the guidance from other agents. Overall, it was a pleasure working with you and you turned a potentially difficult process for us into a very easy one...Thanks again for all your hard work on this." - Mark & Jo Leigh 

 

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "I'd like to express our appreciation with the superb service and support provided by Paul, in the recent sale of our property. We were impressed by his interest and professionalism from the very start, and he kept us fully informed throughout the marketing campaign. The advice willingly provided and the calm manner in which all our requests were handled gave us a firm anchor during what was a very stressful time."

 

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "Paul, Terri and I were most impressed with your high level of professionalism and enthusiasm when we purchased our house from your company. Your attention to detail and friendly manner generates a relaxed atmosphere that the buyers are seeking and subsequently we offered you the opportunity to sell our property. After a clever marketing strategy and only one open house inspection, you were able to secure a quick sale in the price range we were seeking. We have no hesitation in recommending your services to potential vendors. - Wayne & Terri Pearce

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "This is the second home you have sold for us, and with both sales we have appreciated your professionalism and honesty and in general you've been a great guy to deal with. We trust your judgment implicitly, and this has been reflected in the quick sale of both homes, with a great result for each. We would recommend and have done so on several occassions to friends and family. In all cases the outcome has been a successful one for them also."- Andrew Fraser 

 

Dear Paul

 

 "Just wanted to write you a quick note thanking you for your excellent work in selling our property. Despite your competitive fee structure, your organised manner and level of professionalism displayed throughout the process was extremely impressive. Your honest and direct approach as well as your tendency to under promise and over deliver is a rarity in the business and was particularly appreciated. Matching the expectations of buyers and sellers in the residential property market is no easy task, but having the experience of both buying as well as selling a property through your agency, I can testify to the fact that this is a skill which you possess. You're a credit to your profession. All the best for the future." - Neil Hessen

 

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "As we approach settlement of our property it seems timely to acknowledge your positive role in selling our house in which we have lived happily for the past 30 years, and thankyou for achieving a satisfactory result in a relatively short period. Thank you for your personal attention and being available at all times to respond to our queries. We very much appreciate your professionalism, assistance, advice and indeed your counselling during some stressful moments. We are more than happy to recommend you to our friends." - R A Arthur

 

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "Having purchased and sold 5 houses over the years I would like to take the opportunity to say that you are by far the most professional and honest real estate agent that I have worked with. You sold Memorial Ave in 1999 and kept in touch throughout the years to keep us aware of how the market was tracking, especially when we starting renting the property a few years ago. Now you have just sold the property for me I'd like to thank you for under promising and over delivering (which is often a rear trait in Real Estate). You sold memorial Av in half the time (10 days) and at a higher price, which meant that it minimised my marketing spend and enable a quicker settlement. I wish you continued success." - Clint Piper

 

Dear Paul Diks

 

 "We would like to express our great delight in how you performed in the sale of our home. You informed us of everything from start to finish, which made what could have been a difficult process become very easy. In a tough market you produced a great result in which we believe was above market value. Your strategies really excelled above all whom we had approached to sell our home...and they work! We wish you everything success can bring and thank you so much for your encouragement and enthusiasm towards the sale of our home." - Shannon Orr

James Marshman - Principal Roseville Office

Dear James Marshman

 "Our main contact during the selling period was with James, whom we found to be honest, reliable and highly communicative, should you wish to sell your home or have any friends in the area looking for an agent to handle a happy stress free sale, then I would highly recommend him to you."

Dear James Marshman

 "The amount of background work done by James, was very apparent on the day of the Auction when we were very pleased to be able to sell the property for a figure well in excess of the reserve. Even after the sale, James continued to provide on going and much appreciated support to us and the purchasers as settlement was effected."

Dear James Marshman

 "James, I want you to know we are very appreciative of your sterling and successful effort. We know our home was a somewhat more complex property to present to the market and you met the challenge very well."

Dear James Marshman

 “James, We would like to say thank you for your work and effort in achieving a great sale price for our mother’s home. Not only did you survive our tender process, but we found your knowledge, professionalism and manner to be first class. All this in combination led to an open house at the start of the week and contracts being exchanged at the end of the same week. This was truly amazing. To any prospective vendors, we could not more highly recommend the services of James Marshman”.  - The Hessell Brothers

Dominic Smith - Principal Sales

Dear Dominic Smith

 "Our sole reservation was that Dominic was no longer in the area and was perhaps unable to get the result of a "local agent". We were wrong! Dominic's professionalism and fabulous personal skills combined to produce a record result in the street. Not only was the price way beyond our expectations, but it was achieved in only 6 days! Neighbours and friends were hugely impressed with every aspect of his marketing campaign, so much so that others have already entrusted their homes with Dominic. Outstanding."

Dear Dominic Smith 

 "Dominic, all aspects of the deal were handled in a most professional manner. Your attention to detail, recommendations and help with preparing the property for sale and the speed with which all queries were followed up, were instrumental in securing the achieved outcome. It was a pleasure working with you and I thank you for all your time and effort in making the sale process swift and painless."

 

Dear Dominic Smith

 

 "Dominic, Jane and I would like to thank you sincerely for all your help in the sale of our home. We really appreciated your open and honest approach and the many hours of hard work you have put in. We were also very pleased to be able to sell the house at a very good price prior to the Auction."

 

Dear Dominic Smith

 

"Dear Mr Smith, I would like to express my appreciation and thanks for the high standard of professional service provided in this instance, one could not possibly fault the integrity, professionalism, diligence and courtesy with which you handled the sale of my property and I am entirely happy with the end result achieved by Northlink First National Real Estate."

Brenton Green - Sales Marketing & Property Management

Dear Brenton Green 

 "Brenton, as you are well aware this is a stressful time for the family selling. You displayed a very professional approach in discussing the sale with us and setting up a very successful sales and marketing plan."

Dear Brenton Green

 "We are very happy with the outcome for the sale of our townhouse in Lindfield thanks to Brenton. He was very realistic on the potential sales price based on his research of similar sales in the area and we were delighted that he was able to achieve the very top range he had indicated, prior to our property going onto the market. Brenton kept us advised after every open for inspection and we believe he pursued and exhausted all possible leads for our property. We would have no hesitation in using Brenton's sales expertise again and would be happy to provide a positive reference to anyone else interested in selling a property. All the best,  David Frish
