WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING. "Having made the decision to sell our much-loved home of 34 years we were apprehensive about finding a trustworthy real estate agent. Our fears proved to be unfounded as we were fortunate to have found the very best available in Sam Oborn of Harcourts Adelaide Hills. Nothing was too much trouble for Sam and his wonderful assistant Ashleigh. Of course, they took care of all the necessary paperwork for our off-market sale but also helped with contacts to excellent conveyancers, carpet and house cleaners. Their knowledgeable, friendly and open approach made what was a very daunting experience so much easier for us. We could not have achieved the great result that we did without Sam and his team at Harcourts. Sam Oborn was a pleasure to deal with, he was prompt, professional and showed great integrity whilst handling our sale and we would recommend him unreservedly to anyone looking to sell their home." Colin & Gail Brimson
"We recently sold our property with Sam and he proved to be an absolute professional. He made the selling process as stress free as possible and through a very well put together marketing campaign, use of his extensive established network of buyers and a great ability to engage with and service interested parties he successfully got us the price that we had hoped for. The selling process with Sam was transparent, honest and open and he consistently engaged with us throughout to ensure we were comfortable with progress. We couldn't recommend Sam (and his assistant Ash) highly enough. What a team." James & Gabrielle Smart
"We recently had Sam and Ashleigh sell our house and we can comfortably say that we could not be any happier with their service. From being so accommodating with making plans around our busy lives, to recommending other quality services to help get the place looking it’s best, they really did deliver on every little thing. Not to mention that we got a lot higher sale price than we expected!! We can not recommend Sam and Ashleigh any higher - they are absolutely brilliant at what they do and are the friendliest people to go with it! Thanks guys Jarrad, Katie, Freddie and Huw." Jarrad & Katie Tait
“We interviewed 4 local agents before selecting Sam and Ashleigh. WHY? You know that feeling when you meet someone who is very at ease and yourself becomes relaxed and chatty? This is Sam, professional but a very 'real person'. If the seller feels this way surely prospective buyers will see what we saw? And that’s the way it played out as our property was not at all what everyone wants it was a huge relief to have not one but 2 offers after just 3 weeks. Well done team Harcourts.” Lee & Sue Merchant
RECENT RESULTS. “It’s not about having the right opportunities. It’s about handling the opportunities right.” -Mark Hunter
