Monique GibbsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Melinda and Alicia supported me throughout the process of buying my first home, and it was a short process as they assisted me in successfully purchasing the first property I wanted to put an offer on. Would recommend to anyone who is feeling daunted by the process of buying a home and making the right choice! Bernadette SchwerdtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Melinda and her team to purchase a property and secured an excellent result within four weeks of starting. They removed the hard work from the process by narrowing the search and ensuring we didn’t waste time looking in the wrong locations. Communication was clear and efficient, and they handled each step with confidence and professionalism. We would engage them again without hesitation. I highly recommend them. James BennettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In buying our first home, we couldn't have asked for a better buyer's advocate. Melinda provided clear, expert guidance throughout our off-market purchase and helped us avoid mistakes we simply wouldn't have known to look for. Melinda's availability and prompt communication made the entire process far less daunting, and we always felt supported and informed. Most importantly, her genuine care and professionalism gave us real confidence and peace of mind throughout the journey. We highly recommend Melinda and her team, especially to anyone buying a first home. Erin RogersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Melinda and Alicia more! What started as a casual intro call, ended 7 days later with the purchase of our dream home! There is absolutely no way we could have managed that in such a short turnaround time without their help. The highlights were their incredible communication, industry recommendations, their rapport with local realstate agents and experience in knowing exactly what do to/when/how and why. They really took care of everything and I have been shoving their name into every conversation I have had about our new home to anyone who will listen! Lorelei LinksTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Melinda highly enough. I am a first home buyer without a clue and she helped me through the whole process with an unbelievable amount knowledge but also kindness and warmth, I really knew she had my back. She gave me excellent advice, saved me from making many questionable decisions and in the end landed me the perfect apartment. It’s so clear she goes above and beyond for her clients. I think everyone should factor a buyer’s advocate into their home buying budget, it’s more than worthwhile. Thanks so much Melinda ❤️ Bronwyn JamesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so glad we asked for Melinda and Alicia’s support to find a new home. We were on a tight timeline and a bit overwhelmed by the competitiveness of the market. They helped us navigate finding and assessing potential properties, doing due diligence, preparing for auction including the highest price we were prepared to pay, and of course representing us at some past-paced, intimidating auctions. And we genuinely enjoyed getting to know them and their approach and ethics along the way. Big thanks for their support, expertise and commitment. Josh BlakeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After this superb experience using a buyer's agent, you'd be mad not to use one. And equally so, not to use these guys. Melinda, Damian and Simone are a fantastic team. Each bring their own attributes to the process. Their work was professional and thorough. Importantly they understand the emotions involved with buying a property that's going to be home. Fully engaged and very communicative, they are standouts and highly recommended. Sherona ParkinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Melinda and Alicia were considerate of our needs, gave great advice and ensured we had all the information we required to purchase our new home. We didn't think we'd find such a nice place so quickly, but everything just fell into place and here we are within 3 weeks of engagement with a new home! Thanks so much again Stevie WatkinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Melinda was incredible from start to finish. We bought while living overseas and she made the whole process feel clear and manageable. She really knows her stuff and guided us confidently from the first inspection right through to auction day, where she absolutely nailed it and secured the property for us against strong competition. She was also genuinely lovely to deal with and kept us updated at every stage. We couldn’t recommend her more! Hullo HiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After many months of lost Saturdays we decided to try a buyers advocate. We felt this pricing structure seemed much fairer than competitors. Melinda seemed genuinely happy to get the lowest price for us. I don't think we would have won that auction if we were bidding ourselves. Having someone guide us through the next steps has been invaluable too. Thank you so much Melinda, we are over the moon.
