“I was very impressed with the high level of service provided by Brad. First, Brad provided me with regular updates on progress of the campaign leading up to the auction; he was diligent and professional in the way that he managed my expectations but also in how he managed interest in the property from prospective buyers. I definitely felt that I count on him to give me timely advice about the sale. I would highly recommend Brad to prospective sellers.� Steve Notes: (i) This information is being provided by Australian Property Monitors and RP Data, its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

“Brad Gillespie was the strongest possible advocate for the sale of our house. We knew we were getting a great person on our side, but he surpassed our expectations. Brad’s exceptional knowledge of the Eastern Suburbs and his selling price analysis was a precise exercise in which his knowledge of the neighborhood provided insight into the market. This resulted in a final sale very close to our asking price and well above our original expectations. In addition, he knew how to market our home. The pictures on our listing made us almost regret selling our home! It blew us away when Brad called just several days after hitting the market with a great offer on our house. We accepted and Brad was there to advise us every step of the way and all the way up to closing. We put our trust in Brad Gillespie and it paid off.” Nicholas and Olympia
